In-App Config Editor

Markdown editor for Commands, Skills, and Output Styles. Edit frontmatter and body within Poirot.

Scope

• Markdown editor component with syntax highlighting
• YAML frontmatter editor (structured form or raw edit)
• Edit Commands (.md files in commands/)
• Edit Skills (.md files in skills/)
• Edit Output Styles (.md files in output-styles/)
• Create new commands/skills/output styles from within the app
• Delete existing items with confirmation
• Live preview of rendered Markdown alongside editor
• File save with undo support
• Scope-aware editing (global vs project)

Design Considerations

• Use a split-pane layout: editor on the left, preview on the right
• Frontmatter should be editable both as a structured form and as raw YAML
• Syntax highlighting for Markdown, YAML, and embedded code blocks
• Auto-save or explicit save with unsaved changes indicator
• Consider using NSTextView with custom attributes for the editor

Acceptance Criteria

• Users can create, edit, and delete commands/skills/output styles
• Frontmatter parsing and serialization is lossless
• Editor supports undo/redo
• Changes are written to the correct file paths
