What it does

Written by AI from the README

A task manager for reading that turns a PDF selection or annotation into a to-do with its page reference. Includes reading templates, an item pane card and Markdown, CSV or JSON export. Data stays in a local file.

Reading lists kept in separate to-do apps lose their link to the paper. This ties tasks to items and PDF pages. The interface and documentation are mainly in Chinese.

Your review is public, under the name you give, and published with the directory's data under CC BY 4.0. Links are removed. We never store your IP address: a scrambled code made from it is kept for 30 days to catch fake reviews. Every review is checked before it's published; how fake ones are spotted isn't published, so it can't be gamed.
