All events that flow through the system — both input events (from crossterm) and app-level messages sent by components / screens to the main loop.

Variants

Input(InputEvent)

OpenScreen(ScreenEvent)

Quit

Redraw

Autosave

AutosaveCompleted

Background autosave task finished. saved_revision carries the editor’s content_revision at the moment the save was issued on success, None if the write failed. The editor screen uses path to ignore stale completions for notes the user has already navigated away from, and saved_revision to clear the dirty flag iff the buffer is still at that revision (i.e. no edits during the save). NonZeroU64 because the editor’s content_revision is never zero.

Fields

path: VaultPath

saved_revision: Option<NonZeroU64>

OpenPath(VaultPath)

FocusEditor

FocusSidebar

SettingsSaved

Sent by SettingsScreen when user confirms Save. The shared settings reference already contains the updated values.

CloseSettings

Sent by SettingsScreen when user discards or closes unchanged.

OpenFileBrowser

Sent by VaultSection; SettingsScreen::handle_app_message intercepts.

TriggerFastReindex

Sent by IndexingSection; SettingsScreen intercepts.

TriggerFullReindex

IndexingDone(Result<Duration, String>)

Sent by indexing tokio task on completion.

OpenJournal

Open (or create) today’s journal entry and switch to it in the editor.

CloseNoteBrowser

Sent by NoteBrowserModal on Esc or after Enter+open.

FollowLink(String)

Follow the link under the editor cursor: note name/path or external URL.

FollowLabel(String)

Open the search modal pre-filled with #<name> to browse notes by label.

InsertAtCursor(String)

Insert raw text at the editor’s cursor (replacing any active selection). Used by the screen layer to deliver async results back to the editor — e.g. the markdown link generated after a clipboard image is saved as an attachment.

ShowFileOpsMenu(VaultPath)

Request to show the file-operations menu (delete / rename / move).

ShowDeleteDialog(VaultPath)

Request to show the delete confirmation dialog for the given entry.

ShowRenameDialog(VaultPath)

Request to show the rename dialog for the given entry.

ShowMoveDialog(VaultPath)

Request to show the move dialog for the given entry.

EntryDeleted(VaultPath)

Confirmation that the given entry was successfully deleted.

EntryRenamed

Confirmation that an entry was successfully renamed.

Fields

from: VaultPath

to: VaultPath

EntryMoved

Confirmation that an entry was successfully moved.

Fields

from: VaultPath

to: VaultPath

EntryCreated(VaultPath)

A new note was just created and should be opened; sidebar should reflect it.

DialogError(String)

A dialog operation failed; carries a human-readable error message.

CloseDialog

Dismiss the currently visible dialog without taking action.

VaultConflict(String)

A vault was found to be structurally unusable (conflicts, invalid layout, etc.). Carries a formatted, human-readable error message.

Handled by handle_app_message in main.rs, which clears the workspace, saves settings, and opens the settings screen with an error overlay. To add a new conflict source: emit this event from the detection site; no other files need to change.

RenameValidation

Rename dialog: name availability check result.

Fields

available: bool

MoveDirectoriesLoaded(Vec<VaultPath>)

Move dialog: directory list has loaded.

MoveFilterResults(Vec<VaultPath>)

Move dialog: fuzzy filter results are ready.

MoveDestValidation

Move dialog: destination existence check result.

Fields

available: bool

BacklinksLoaded(Vec<BacklinkEntry>)

Backlinks for the current note have been loaded.

WorkspaceSwitched(String)

User switched to a different workspace. Carries the workspace name. Handled by main.rs to rebuild the vault and navigate to StartScreen.
