Arborescent – An outliner for project decomposition and AI workflows

The Take

Tree-first UI makes it fast to break big projects into nested tasks and apply reusable 'contexts' or blueprints across branches. The built-in terminal (xterm.js) and right-click → send-prompt flow show the author thought about actual iteration with local or web AI tools; however, core differentiation vs. extensible outliners (Obsidian/Notion + prompt plugins) is mostly the desktop + blueprint ergonomics, and features like sync/collaboration aren't obvious yet.

Target Audience

Developers, engineering teams, and power users who want to structure project work and AI interactions with reusable contexts and workflows

Post Description

It's an outliner where you decompose projects into tasks, collaborate with AI to refine specs, and encode your preferences into reusable contexts and blueprints. I used it to build itself. React, Electron, TypeScript.
