Tags

Tags are a lightweight way to group pages across workspaces and folders. A tag is a name and a colour: the names are stored in each page's file, and the colours are stored once for the whole project.

Add a tag to a pageCopy Anchor Link

Open a page and use the tag control under the title.

• Type to find an existing tag or create a new one.
• A page can carry up to 20 tags, each up to 40 characters.
• Tags are saved to the page's YAML frontmatter as a tags: list, so they travel with the file:

---
title: Recon checklist
tags:
  - pentesting
  - web
---

Because tags live in the frontmatter, editing a page's body never disturbs them, and a file you tagged in another editor is recognised when Node reads it.

ColoursCopy Anchor Link

Each tag can be shown in a colour, chosen once and then used everywhere that tag appears. The palette covers neutral, violet, green, yellow and red, in light, solid and outline styles. A tag you never colour uses the default neutral badge.

The colour map is saved in data/tags.json inside the project, separate from the pages themselves.

Browse by tagCopy Anchor Link

• The sidebar's Tags section lists every tag in use, most-used first.
• Selecting a tag opens All pages filtered to the pages carrying it (/workspace?tag=<name>).
• Search also matches tag names, so typing a tag in the command palette surfaces the pages that use it.

Remove or renameCopy Anchor Link

• Clearing a tag from a page removes it from that page's frontmatter only.
• A tag with no pages left can be removed from the colour list in the tag control; pages are never changed by this.
• Tags have no separate rename: change the name on the pages that use it, or edit the frontmatter.
