siyuan-note/siyuan — An open-source, privacy-first, self-hosted knowledge workspace where humans and AI agents work together 开源、隐私优先、自托管的知识工作空间,让人与智能体在此协作 (46,860 stars, AGPL-3.0, ui, database, files).

These are the closest projects in the JustClaw-It index that we serve licence-cleared code from, ranked by relevance and by our code-quality score (1–10, the mean over each repo's graded components: completeness, code quality, deployability, reusability, strategic value). JustClaw-It does not serve code from siyuan-note/siyuan itself (licence class: network-copyleft), so these alternatives are the licence-cleared route.
