IWE is a Rust-based tool that turns a directory of plain Markdown files into a queryable knowledge graph, exposed through an LSP server for editors (VS Code, Neovim, Zed, Helix), a CLI, and an MCP server for AI agents. It is local-first with no cloud or database, letting humans and agents navigate, search, and restructure the same notes.
Use cases
- manage zettelkasten-style markdown notes with IDE features
- give AI coding agents structured memory over my notes
- query my markdown notes like a database from the CLI
- get LSP navigation and refactoring for markdown in Neovim
- build a local-first personal knowledge graph with git versioning
- let Claude Code capture session context as reviewable markdown
- run structured queries like 'all drafts under this subtree' over notes
When to choose
- you want database-style structured queries over plain markdown files without a database
- you need both editor LSP integration and MCP/CLI access to the same notes
- you prefer local-first, git-versioned knowledge management with full file ownership
- you want AI agents to navigate notes by structure rather than similarity search
When to avoid
- you need a hosted or collaborative note-taking service with sync across devices
- you want semantic/vector similarity search over unstructured text rather than link-based structure
- you need rich WYSIWYG editing or a graphical note app
- your notes live in formats other than markdown
