Features
🩺 The Doctor — Patient Queue
Opens a stacked card interface showing every note that carries the plaster tag. Cards slide in and out with animations as you move through the queue.
Keyboard shortcuts (while the queue is open):
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
U |
Mark the note as healed (removes the plaster tag) |
I |
Ignore — skip and move to the next note |
O or Enter |
Open the note for a full review |
Escape |
Close the queue |
The ← Previous and Next → buttons let you navigate in both directions. Progress is shown as current / total (e.g. 5 / 40).
💉 The Nurse
Automatically applies a configurable plaster tag (default: #INCOMPLETE) to every new note the moment it is created. Two commands let you manage the tag manually from any note:
| Command | Action |
|---|---|
| The Nurse — Apply plaster tag | Adds the plaster tag to the active note |
| The Nurse — Remove plaster tag | Removes the plaster tag from the active note |
Assign hotkeys to these commands in Settings → Hotkeys by searching for "Nurse".
