SiYuan's v3.7.0 turns a local-first note editor into an extensible, AI-native knowledge platform

notesknowledge-managementlocal-firstai-agentsplugin-systemopen-source
Current state
SiYuan is a local-first, block-based notes and knowledge tool shipping at a rapid open-source cadence. It has just closed out the v3.7.0 cycle, a landmark release, through a long chain of beta and rc builds, and is already iterating on v3.7.1 alphas. The tracked feed is dominated by that single release train.
Where it's heading
The direction is clear from v3.7.0: SiYuan is becoming an extensible, AI-native knowledge platform. It added a kernel plugin system, a scripting CLI, and an AI knowledge base (SiYuan Agent plus vector search) in public testing, on top of continuous editor, database, and mobile refinement. The v3.7.1 alphas point to a stabilization phase, tightening databases, mobile, and platform edge cases.
Prediction
Expect the v3.7.1 line to stabilize the 3.7.0 features, hardening the plugin system, CLI, and AI knowledge base, and to move the AI Agent and vector search from public testing toward general availability.

    SiYuan v3.7.0: plugin system, CLI, and AI knowledge base

    ⚡ SPARK

    The stable v3.7.0, the culmination of the long beta/rc run visible in this feed, is SiYuan's biggest step in months: a kernel plugin system, a CLI, an AI knowledge base with semantic search, and a UI overhaul. It reframes the arc from steady editor polish toward an extensible, AI-native knowledge platform.
