Chronicle is the platform's internal knowledge base. Write articles, organize them by category, tag them for cross-reference, and search the full text instantly. Every deployment note, runbook, architecture decision, and how-to guide lives here — versioned, searchable, and always one keyboard shortcut away.
The article browser is a two-pane layout. The left sidebar lists categories and article counts; clicking a category filters the article list on the right instantly. Stats tiles at the top show total article count, total views in the past 7 days, and how many categories exist. Each article card shows title, category, tags, author, and view count. Click any card to open the full article in a reading pane.
The search bar runs a ranked PostgreSQL full-text query against a stored search index, so the most relevant articles surface first — with an ILIKE fallback if the index is unavailable. Results update as you type — no submit button, no page reload. Combined with category and tag filters, you can narrow 34 articles down to exactly what you need in seconds. Search state is preserved in the URL so you can share a specific query with a teammate.
The article editor has a title field, category selector, content textarea (Markdown-friendly), and a comma-separated tag input. A slug is auto-generated from the title and guaranteed unique — you can override it manually if needed. Published/draft toggle lets you stage content before making it visible. Editing an existing article preserves view count and creation date; the updated_at timestamp refreshes automatically on every save.
Clicking any article card opens a reading pane that shows the full content, category and tag badges, author, creation and last-update timestamps, and view count. An edit button in the header opens the edit form pre-populated with the current values. Delete removes the article permanently after confirmation. View count increments on every open — the most-viewed articles are surfaced in the stats API used by the Nexus platform dashboard.
Chronicle is purpose-built for a small technical team that needs to record and retrieve information fast — without a heavyweight external tool, without paying for Confluence, and without leaving the platform.
Every decision, runbook, and architecture note in one searchable place. No external tools. No friction.
