✦ Luminite

AI-Native Immersive Knowledge Workspace

A closed-loop system that seamlessly connects multi-source data ingestion, intelligent retrieval orchestration, and knowledge processing & accumulation. Build a dedicated digital brain on your local machine — one that responds instantly and thinks deeply.

Main Interface Onboarding

🤔 What Problems Does It Solve?

🔀 Information Fragmentation

Knowledge scatters across cloud platforms and local drives. Piecing together a project's full picture forces constant app-switching, severely breaking your flow state.

💤 Dormant Local Data

PDFs, Word docs, PPTs, and historical files pile up on your machine. These "dead data" lack an activation mechanism — never surfaced when you actually need them.

✂️ Tool Fragmentation

"Reading materials," "querying AI," and "writing new content" live in separate apps. New content can't seamlessly complement your existing knowledge base.

🕳️ Shallow Retrieval Limits

Complex questions spanning multiple documents need depth — not surface-level stitching. You need multi-round deep investigation that fills implicit context automatically.

🚀 Core Features

🤖 Agentic RAG — Iterative Retrieval Based on ReAct

LLM as core orchestrator. Breaks free from single-retrieval pipelines — autonomously selects tools, reads full documents, performs multi-round reasoning with supplementary retrieval. Delivers panoramic, well-substantiated research conclusions.

🏠 Local-First — Data Sovereignty Returns to You

Vectorization, on-device embedding inference, and semantic indexing all run locally. Files reside in plaintext on local storage. Physical-level isolation for sensitive data — zero cloud privacy leakage.

📝 Markdown as First-Class Citizen — Zero Lock-in

All data stored as standard Markdown with Frontmatter metadata. Long-term readability, cross-system portability, no vendor dependency.

🔑 Out-of-the-Box & BYOK

Preset APIs ready to go. Bring Your Own Key supported. Switch between model providers in real time based on task workloads.

🌐 Cross-Domain Data Source Aggregation

Native integration with Notion, Feishu, Apple Notes, and 6+ external knowledge domains. Multi-modal high-fidelity parsing (DDU) with silent incremental sync. Breaks down information silos across SaaS platforms.

🔄 Knowledge Flow Closed Loop

One-click persistence of conversation insights into local Markdown docs. Ephemeral interactions → sustainable knowledge production. New content immediately feeds back into your semantic network.

🔍 Transparent Reasoning, Auditable Sources

Real-time streaming of reasoning logic and Function Call chains. Every claim hard-linked to precise source jump links. Strips the AI black box — full verifiability.

🔌 MCP (Model Context Protocol) Support

Expose as a standard MCP Server via HTTP streaming. Extends Luminite from standalone app into a system-level context module — external tools can invoke your local knowledge network directly.

🧲 Multi-Level Hybrid Retrieval & Implicit Association

Semantic search + keyword full-text search + hybrid retrieval, combined with entity recognition at ingestion. Discovers non-intuitive associative structures between isolated concepts.

💬 Conversation Lifecycle & Multimodal Interaction

Dynamic branch management, context truncation, node tracing, partial re-rendering. Image attachments and long-text injection. Precise fine-tuning control over the LLM context window.

⚙️ Async Scheduling Engine & Eventual Consistency

FSM-based filesystem debounce engine + multi-stage pipelines + periodic orphan reconciliation. Strong consistency across retrieval indices, local DB, and file layers under high-frequency concurrent R/W.

🧩 Targeted Chunking & Interface Degradation

Customized extraction per data source (e.g., Notion block-level API adaptation). Six-level recursive semantic slicing preserves document context coherence and section topology.

🚀 Quick Start

1. Download & Install

  • Visit the official website to download the latest version for macOS.
  • Drag Luminite.app into your Applications folder.

2. Initial Setup

  1. Launch Luminite and complete the onboarding guide.
  2. Configure your LLM provider (use preset APIs or bring your own key).
  3. Connect data sources — local folders, Notion, Feishu, Apple Notes, etc.

3. Start Using

  • Ask questions: Open the conversation panel and query across all your connected knowledge.
  • Ingest documents: Drop PDFs, Markdown, Word, or PPT files into Luminite — they'll be indexed automatically.
  • Save insights: One-click persist any conversation insight back into your local knowledge base.

4. MCP Integration (Optional)

Enable the built-in MCP Server to let external AI tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor) access your local knowledge network directly.
