DeskDoze: tidy your notes, leave yourself one small task

Description and use

DeskDoze со

Problem

Loose text notes are hard to organize and retrieve. Notes about the same topic can be scattered across files, making it difficult to find a next step or action item.

Outcome

Seven loose notes were grouped into four related groups with three extracted next steps. All six applied moves were successfully undone, restoring original file contents byte-for-byte. Unsupported files were left untouched.

Workflow

• Embed each note's opening excerpt using all-MiniLM-L6-v2 via Transformers.js with Xenova ONNX weights
• Compare vectors by cosine similarity; group notes where every pair exceeds the threshold
• Extract tasks from unchecked Markdown lines beginning with TODO: or NEXT:, choosing the shortest by word count
• Present grouped notes with next step and source line beside each group
• Apply proposed moves or leave folder alone; every applied plan has an undo journal
• Undo moves by checking for edits before restoring; verify restored files match originals byte-for-byte

Evidence

DeskDoze sorts loose text notes into related groups and picks out a task already written in each group.

Source

Two notes about a bicycle repair belong together. One says to find the pump; the other says to read the tyre size. DeskDoze brings them into one view, with a next step and its source line beside it.

Source

The gardening group shows Water tomatoes, taken from line 3 of note-01.md. The soup group shows Rinse lentils. Neither task was invented by a language model.

Source

The demo also applies six moves, checks their contents, undoes them, and compares the restored files with the originals. All bytes match.

Source

Every pair in a group must exceed the threshold. This avoids joining unrelated notes just because one note happens to connect them.

Source

Only the first 900 characters enter the embedding pipeline, and tokenization can shorten that further. Long or mixed-topic notes can be grouped badly.

Source

In the sample, seven loose notes become four groups and three written next steps. That gives you less to sort through before doing something useful.
