    Looking for suggestions for a good macOS markdown viewer/editor. Don&amp;#39;t need any fancy cloud sync or anything like that, just solid viewing and editing of local markdown files.

    @schwa @incanus Yeah, Obsidian&amp;#39;s editing is good (I use it for other stuff already), but it doesn&amp;#39;t seem like you can just open a single .md file alone and edit it.

    @isaiah@mastodon.social OK, to make sure I understand, is this the idea of what you&#39;re looking for? (the custom image is just a very squashed SF symbol)

    @isaiah@mastodon.social I do this indirectly with the workflow I have set up for most of my tasks. I create a Github issue and basically put my prompt as the first comment in the issue, then tell Claude to read the issue and execute. For simple issues, I have it do its thing then commit and close. For more complex ones with a long plan, I&#39;ll tell it to save the plan as another comment in the issue to keep a kind of conversation history there, sometimes with multiple stages if it goes on a wh...
