Knowledge Graph
The knowledge graph renders your notes and their wiki-links as an interactive force-directed network, and, with Knowledge Insights, turns them into an analytical tool.
Open the graph
- View → Graph View
- Toolbar button
- Ctrl/Cmd+G
- Command palette
Global and local views
- Global graph — every note and resolved wiki-link edge, with optional tag nodes and note→tag edges.
- Local graph — the current note plus neighbours within a configurable hop depth.
Interact
- Zoom and pan.
- Drag nodes.
- Hover to highlight neighbours.
- Click a note node to open it.
Settings and filters
The settings panel controls repulsion, link force and distance, center gravity, orphans and unresolved links, arrows, color-by-folder, and label/size/line options.
The settings panel also includes filters that re-render the graph without rebuilding it:
- Filter by text — keeps nodes whose label matches.
- Tag — restricts the graph to notes carrying the selected tag.
- Folder — restricts the graph to a folder group.
- Show orphans — hide/show unconnected notes.
- Show unresolved — hide/show broken-link ("ghost") nodes.
- Show tags — include/exclude
#tagnodes.
Knowledge Insights
Open View → Knowledge Insights (or Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+K) to analyze your vault. The report opens in a tabbed dialog and every row is clickable — double-click a note to open it.
| Tab | Shows |
|---|---|
| Summary | Totals (notes, links, backlinks, tags), average links per note, and a graph health score with its breakdown. |
| Most connected | Top 10 notes by total connections. |
| Orphan notes | Notes with no resolved links in or out. |
| Broken links | Links pointing to notes that don't exist. |
| Notes without tags | Notes that carry no tags. |
| Tag usage | Most-used tags with their note counts. |
The health score is a simple, explainable number in [0, 100] that starts at 100 and subtracts for orphan notes, untagged notes and broken links.
