Marginalia - Chat With Your Documents
Paste a prompt into your coding agent with the project open. Each one names the file it changes, so the agent doesn't have to search the codebase.
AI status: Demo corpus. Runs on a seeded corpus in src/lib/mock-data.ts by default. Live mode is a documented swap.
Prompt 1
Change the accent colours
In src/app/globals.css, change --accent-brass and --accent-cite to my brand colours. Keep the serif headings and the paper background.
Prompt 2
Serve documents from my database
Replace the document helpers in src/lib/mock-data.ts with queries against my Postgres table. Keep the same function signatures so the chat UI does not change.
Prompt 3
Connect a live model
Replace the canned answer helper in src/lib/mock-data.ts with a model call that returns the answer and citation IDs. Keep the citation shape the chat already renders.
