A minimalist, distraction-free writing application designed for creative flow. Features a translucent "Whisper UI" and versioned local snapshots, with automatic backup to your own Google Drive.

CORE PHILOSOPHY

Pellucid eliminates UI clutter to focus entirely on words, while providing structured research management through a bidirectional connection graph.

SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

Markdown Editor (Custom Controller)
  ↓ auto-saves
Local Files + SQLite
  ↓ backed up to
Google Drive (drive.file scope only)

KEY CAPABILITIES

• Whisper UI: Low-contrast, highly-transparent interface for deep focus.
• Versioned Snapshots: Automatic local restore points for every manuscript.
• Private Drive Backup: Copies go to your own Drive using a scope that can only touch files the app itself created — it can never see the rest of your Drive.
• Knowledge Integration: Side-by-side research notes with automated attribution.
