Ritemark Features
Everything you can do with Ritemark, organized by category.
Editor
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Core Editor | WYSIWYG markdown editing with auto-save |
| Comments | Comment on any passage or drop a /// standalone note; anchor highlights and margin notes saved inside the Markdown file. Mention an agent anywhere in a note and send it as an ordered task, with live status dots in the margin (v1.8.6) |
| Text Formatting | Bold, italic, links, and inline styles |
| Block Types | Headings, lists, tables, code blocks |
| Keyboard Shortcuts | Complete shortcut reference |
| Mermaid Diagrams | Fenced mermaid code blocks render as visual SVG diagrams with code/diagram toggle and PNG export |
| Draw.io Diagrams | Type /diagram to draw and edit draw.io diagrams in markdown; a full editor runs offline and the embed live-refreshes on save |
| Home | Persistent first item in the sidebar (v1.8.6): New document, quick actions for New AI task, Open document, New table and Open folder, plus recent documents (or recent folders when nothing is open) |
AI
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| AI Sidebar | Four agents in one sidebar: Ritemark Agent, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and OpenCode. One autonomy picker (Manual or Auto) across all runtimes, plan mode enforced by the runtime so a planning agent cannot write files, and the selected model pinned on every path (v1.8.6). Visible 10-slot prompt queue, Interactive Questions, and Context Protection. Browser-aware chat shares the open page's URL, title, and ARIA outline when you consent. File attachments work for Codex and OpenCode too (v1.8.0). |
| Scheduled AI Agents | Run an agent on a timer while Ritemark is open (v1.8.0) -- daily briefings, weekly summaries, recurring reports, with a no-cron Schedule picker and a safe-by-default approval model. A folder that defines scheduled agents asks once before anything is armed, reversible from the Agent Library (v1.8.6) |
| Extensions Marketplace | Browse and install VS Code extensions directly from Ritemark |
| Terminal AI | Use Claude Code, Codex, or Gemini in the integrated terminal |
| Flows | Visual AI workflow editor with LLM, Image, and Claude Code nodes |
| Claude Code Node | Agentic AI node for Flows -- complex research, analysis, and file operations |
Document Management
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Transcribe | Turn recordings into editable Markdown with your choice of private on-device Whisper or speaker-separated ElevenLabs transcription. Check every line against the audio, rename speakers, and extract insights with playable source timestamps (v1.9.0) |
| Document Properties | YAML front-matter and metadata |
| Document Preview | Open PDFs and Word documents directly in Ritemark |
| In-App Browser | Open .html files, external URLs, and localhost:* as rendered pages in the same tab bar as markdown -- real Electron browser with history, DevTools, and cookies |
| Export | PDF and Word export |
| Spreadsheets | CSV editing with sorting and row operations, plus editable .xlsx files with an fx formula bar and multi-sheet tabs (v1.8.0) |
Settings & System
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Update Center | Check for updates, install with pause/resume, skip versions, and view component readiness cards -- all from Settings |
| Claude Account | Auth method, CLI version, and billing source for Claude Code at a glance |
| ChatGPT Account | Email, plan, and connection status for OpenAI Codex |
| Agent Runtime | Switch between the bundled CLI and a system-installed Claude or Codex on your PATH |
