GitHub release Platform Storage AI

English | 简体中文


Linkit is a desktop bookmark manager built for knowledge workers. AI summaries, semantic search, and a knowledge graph turn saved links into real assets. Collections let you group ideas across categories; link health checks and duplicate detection keep your library clean; one-click import from Chrome, Firefox, Raindrop and more gets you started in seconds. Six beautiful themes, local-first storage, cloud sync when you need it — your data, always yours. Connect any OpenAI-compatible API or a local model (Ollama, etc.) for full AI features. Available on macOS, Windows, and Linux.


🚀 Installation

brew install blue-idea/tap/linkit
brew update && brew upgrade linkit  # upgrade anytime

Linkit is currently distributed without Apple notarization. The Cask automatically clears the Gatekeeper com.apple.quarantine attribute on install — no sudo required.

📦 Direct Downloads

Windows, macOS (DMG), and Linux (AppImage / DEB) binaries are on the GitHub Releases page.

macOS DMG: If Gatekeeper blocks the app, drag Linkit.app to /Applications, then run Fix Gatekeeper.command inside the DMG to clear the quarantine flag automatically.

✨ Key Features

🗄️ Local-First, Privacy-Respecting Storage

All your bookmarks are stored in a local SQLite database on your own machine — no account required to get started. Enable optional Supabase cloud sync to access your library across devices. Either way, your data is never sold or shared.

📥 One-Click Import

Migrate your existing bookmarks in seconds:

  • Browser HTML export — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge
  • Raindrop.io CSV/JSON export
  • Clipboard URL — paste any link directly via Spotlight (Cmd/Ctrl + K)

Every bookmark is a rich knowledge card: custom tags, star ratings, pinning, personal notes, and reading status (unreadreadingreadarchived). Stop losing links you meant to revisit.

📁 Multi-Level Categories + Dynamic Collections

Build a stable category tree with drag-and-drop. Then create Collections — cross-category themed spaces with custom emojis and colors — for projects, research, or inspiration boards. Drag bookmarks in manually, or let AI curate a collection from a single prompt.

🤖 Built-in AI Copilot

Connect any OpenAI / DeepSeek-compatible API or a local LLM (Ollama, etc.) and unlock:

  • Auto page fetch, summarization, and key takeaways
  • Smart tag and category recommendations
  • AI-curated collections from natural language prompts
  • Semantic search across your entire library
  • Duplicate detection and merge suggestions

🔍 Spotlight Search (Cmd/Ctrl + K)

Instant full-text and semantic vector search across titles, notes, tags, and AI-generated content. Also doubles as a quick-capture bar — paste a URL and save it without leaving your current tab.

📊 Curation Insights Report

Linkit periodically generates an Insights Report summarizing your curation habits: most-used tags, reading progress, content patterns, and AI-surfaced highlights from your unread pile. Turn your bookmark graveyard into an active knowledge base.

🔁 Duplicate Bookmark Detection

Automatically surface exact-URL duplicates and AI-detected near-duplicates (same content, different URLs). Review and merge with one click to keep your library clean.

Background scans detect broken links (404) and silently changed pages. Filter, review, and clean up stale bookmarks before they pile up.

🌐 Knowledge Graph

Visualize your entire library as an interactive network. Nodes connect via shared tags, collections, and AI semantic similarity. Click any node to jump directly to that bookmark.

🛡️ Secure Cloud Sync

When you enable sync, all data is protected by Supabase Row-Level Security (RLS) — every row is cryptographically bound to your user ID. No one else can read your bookmarks, not even us.


📸 Interface Showcase

📊 Main Workspace (Dashboard)

Three-column layout with collapsible sidebars, six view modes (grid, list, waterfall, timeline, tag-cluster, collections), and a rich detail panel. Dashboard

🔍 Spotlight Search (Cmd/Ctrl + K)

Instant multi-attribute and semantic search, or paste a URL to capture and analyze it on the spot. Spotlight

🤖 AI Insights & Smart Summaries

One-click page analysis: core takeaways, auto-tags, and a concise summary — all generated locally or via your chosen API. AI Insights

📥 Adding Bookmarks & Quick Capture

Drag-and-drop or clipboard detection. AI fetches metadata and suggests tags in real time. Add Bookmark

Scan for broken or changed links and filter results by status. Health Check

⚙️ Preferences & Themes

🛠️ Technology Stack

  • Desktop Framework: Wails (Go)
  • Frontend: React + Vite + TypeScript
  • UI: Tailwind CSS + Glassmorphism design system
  • Local DB: SQLite (via GORM)
  • Cloud Sync: Supabase (PostgreSQL + RLS)
  • AI: OpenAI / DeepSeek-compatible APIs or local LLMs (Ollama)

🔑 Security & Privacy

  • Local by default: No account, no telemetry, no cloud dependency to get started.
  • RLS-enforced sync: Cloud data is row-level secured — only you can access your records.
  • Keychain-stored credentials: AI API keys are stored in your OS keystore (go-keyring → macOS Keychain / Windows Credential Manager). Never hardcoded, never uploaded.
