CLUSTER DESKTOP-FILES-MARKDOWN-2 · 21 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-04-20
AI-ready local document prep tools
Cluster of desktop tools that assemble local files (Markdown, Office, PDFs, screenshots) into compact, AI-ready context packages for coding agents and assistants. The dated history before the index start is too thin to read a shape from — only 4 dated entries exist. Traction is led by cpah-docs (6 stars), followed by Word-for-Markdown (4 stars) and DUIN (1 star).
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
