Find it without losing your place
Recall, Machine Map, Content, Nearby, and History share one panel. Use supported time phrases, inspect the parsed filters, and save searches for later.
KWIP Apps · Mac · Version 1.3.0
A searchable timeline
of your machine.
Find a moment. Follow the work around it. Atlas 1.3 brings search, nearby evidence, and resource history into Quick Access, then helps you return with a Workspace brief and destinations you review. Your memory stays on your Mac; you choose what Atlas collects.
01 · The missing path
The thing you need is rarely just the thing you copied.
It is the document it came from, the related link, the note you made next, and the work you were trying to finish.
Atlas is designed around context recovery: bringing those intentional artifacts back together as an evidence-based episode you can inspect and edit.
02 · Inside Atlas
A clear map back into the work.
03 · New in 1.3
Keep the context. Continue the work.
Follow the work around a moment
Inspect nearby observations and a resource’s retained history. Add notes and Thread milestones, or shape a Thread or Workspace timeline with editable rules. Nearby does not automatically mean related.
Know where you left off
Read a return brief, choose a comparison baseline, and leave a pick-up note for later. Review destinations, repair stale locations, and retry unresolved items. Supported Obsidian links open existing notes or headings.
04 · The loop
Remember. Reconstruct. Resume.
Keep intentional artifacts
Choose clipboard capture, application sessions, visible-window names, and selected folders in Settings. File-detail extraction is a separate choice. The master pause stops every enabled source together.
Recover the episode
Related evidence becomes an editable account of the work around that moment, with uncertainty left visible.
Return to useful work
Review a Workspace’s apps, files, and links before reopening selected destinations. Atlas opens current files; it does not roll back their contents or restore unsaved application state.
05 · Private by design
A memory instrument, not a monitoring system.
What stays with you
- Content and search stay local on your Mac. Captured content and protected source metadata are encrypted before storage with a Keychain-backed key.
- Control per-application exclusions, retention, export, and confirmed deletion for each source. Turning a source off stops collection; deleting its history is a separate action.
- Password managers, authentication utilities, and protected system surfaces are excluded by default. Observations stay distinct from labeled, editable inferences.
What Atlas does not collect
- No keystrokes, screen pixels, camera, audio, or secure-field contents. Optional visible-window names use macOS Screen Recording permission for public window-list metadata only, after a separate opt-in. This does not record your screen.
- No full browser history or silent browser scraping.
- No employer surveillance, idle monitoring, or productivity scoring. No remote content analytics, shared-model training, or advertising use.
