Read what you and your AI agents write. Plans, reports and notes render natively, update live as the file changes and open in Quick Look. Nothing edited or collected.
Minimal.md is a Markdown viewer for the Mac: for the notes you write, and for the plans and reports your AI agents write. It shows them the way they were meant to be read, follows every change live, and never changes them itself.
There's no editor, no sync and no account. Just the document, rendered natively with the system fonts, in light or dark mode.
READ, DON'T EDIT
• Opens Markdown files from Finder or Open With, and can be your default Markdown app
• Never writes to your files — to change one, open it in your editor
• Copy the whole document as Markdown in one step
WORK TOGETHER WITH YOUR AI AGENTS
• Keep a plan or report open while the agent writes it: the window updates with every change and keeps your place
• Read-only by design, so it never conflicts with an agent editing the same file
• AGENTS.md and other instructions read cleanly, and skills show their YAML front matter as a clear table
EVERYTHING IN THE DOCUMENT
• GitHub-flavored Markdown: tables, task lists, strikethrough and fenced code blocks
• YAML front matter shown as a tidy table instead of stray dashes
• Local images next to your document, with a clear placeholder when one can't be shown
• A safe subset of HTML: centered paragraphs, sized images, headings and simple tables
• Anything Minimal.md doesn't render is shown as its source — nothing is silently dropped
FIND YOUR WAY
• A table of contents in the sidebar, built from the document's headings
• Jump to the previous or next heading, or to the start and end of the document
• Links to headings scroll to them; links to other Markdown files open them
QUICK LOOK
Press the Space bar on a Markdown file in Finder to see it rendered — the same renderer as the app, right in the preview.
MADE FOR THE MAC
• Adjustable text size for every document
• Select text to use Look Up, Translate, Writing Tools and Services
• Full VoiceOver support, including headings, tables and task lists
• Available in English, French, German, Italian, Russian and Spanish
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Minimal.md makes no network connections and collects no data. Remote images are never loaded. It reads only the files you open and the folders you choose to share, and you can revoke that access at any time in Settings.
