Three forms
A card, a one-line row, or a chip in the middle of a sentence. Settings → Editor → Link cards decides which form a pasted link takes, and the right-click menu switches it.
Where the review stands
A pull request card says approved, changes requested, or a review still required. An inline chip’s dot goes red when changes were asked for.
Through your own gh
Margin reads through the GitHub CLI you already have. Without it, public pull requests and issues still show, straight from GitHub, with no token and no account.
Gentle on the network
Everything on screen is asked for in one request, every five minutes by default. Settings → Editor → GitHub → Refresh every sets the interval.
More of Margin
A space is a folder you choose, and every note is one Markdown file inside it. Margin is a fast view over that folder, nothing more.
You type Markdown and it renders as you go. No preview pane, no second copy, no toolbar. The markers step aside when the cursor leaves them.
Each space is its own folder, its own note list, its own search and its own tint. One click and the others stop existing for a while.
Links between notes point at the note, not the filename, so reorganising at eleven at night does not break a single one.
Every parent is itself a note, with its own words, not a bare folder. The tree underneath is plain files and folders that read fine anywhere else.
It does nothing on its own: no indexing, no reading as you type. Only what you point it at goes to the model you picked, and only when you ask.
