A rebuilt note editor

Since Anara 3.0 shipped two weeks ago, we've been heads down on polish. This update covers the work we didn't have room to mention in the 3.0 post: a rebuilt note editor, a simpler chat input, the Related tab being retired, and a long list of fixes.

A rebuilt note editor

Notes are now powered by a new editor built from the ground up to work alongside Anara. The biggest day-one win is performance: long notes (10,000+ words) open immediately and stay smooth as they grow. AI edits stream in without the typing issues you used to see on long documents.

A few other things changed along with it. Equations get a dedicated input popover where you type LaTeX and see the rendered formula update as you go. Math is now parsed only inside $$ ... $$, so a single $ in a sentence stops getting silently turned into broken LaTeX. Toggles, callouts, and tables of contents persist correctly when you reload a note. Pastes from Word strip the heavy styling so your note keeps its own look. And familiar shortcuts like Cmd+Shift+8 for bullet lists work again.

@web replaces @search papers

Chat input source settings used to have separate @web and @search papers toggles, which was confusing because most web searches already pull in academic results. We collapsed @search papers into @web. One toggle now controls whether chat reaches outside your library, and Anara picks the right backend (general web, academic databases, life sciences connectors) based on your question.

We removed the Related tab

The Related tab is gone from the right sidebar. The suggestions were noisy, and it duplicated functionality already covered by chat and the Agent. Help guide: The Related tab has been removed.
