# OctoMind

> OctoMind is an ergonomic visual mind mapping and agenda engine designed for academic researchers, software engineers, and executives. It features a single-thumb mobile dock, instant Spotlight Command Palette (Cmd+K), architectural dot-grid canvas, interactive task checkbox nodes, publication-grade vector PDF/SVG exports, and 100% offline-first privacy with zero account registration.

## Core Philosophy & Differentiators

- **Zero Account & 100% On-Device Privacy:** No mandatory signup, no telemetry, no third-party cloud lock-in. All mind trees, notes, and research stay exclusively on the user's device.
- **Fair Pricing Model:** Free core application with an affordable one-time lifetime purchase. No recurring $30–$120/year subscription traps.
- **Publication-Grade Vector Export:** Built-in lossless 1200 DPI vector PDF, SVG, Markdown, JSON, and PNG exports with zero watermarks, ready for PhD dissertations, journals, and books.
- **Speed & Ergonomics:** Ultra-light (<15MB native footprint, 60fps canvas engine) with universal keyboard shortcuts: `Tab` for child topics, `Enter` for sibling topics, `Cmd+Z` for multi-step undo, and `Cmd+K` for instant Spotlight node search.

## Key Features

- **Spotlight Command Palette (`Cmd+K` / `Ctrl+K`):** Instant fuzzy-search across hundreds of nodes with smooth camera centering and zero context loss.
- **Architectural Dot-Grid Precision Canvas:** Infinite subtle dot-matrix background providing tactile spatial precision and visual node hierarchy.
- **Interactive Task Nodes & Agenda:** Single-tap checkbox completion with checkmarks, haptic feedback, and strikethrough states for agile task tracking.
- **Instant In-Place Text Editing:** Immediate node editing right on the canvas capsule without annoying browser popups or extra clicks.
- **Multi-Level Text to Map Generator:** Converts indented bullet outlines and Markdown text into structured hierarchical mind trees with one click.
- **Stylus & Apple Pencil Optimization:** Native pressure-sensitive stylus and Apple Pencil interaction paired with tactile haptic vibration engine feedback.
