Organization

Conduit provides several tools for organizing your connections and keeping your vault tidy as it grows.

Folders

Build a hierarchical folder structure with unlimited nesting depth. Create folders inline directly from the sidebar, and move entries between folders using the context menu or drag-and-drop. Each folder maintains independent expand/collapse state so you can focus on what matters.

Deleting a folder that contains sub-items triggers a confirmation dialog showing the total number of entries inside (including nested subfolders and their contents). Confirming the action deletes the folder and all of its contents recursively — nothing is orphaned to the root level.

Favorites

Star any entry to mark it as a favorite. Toggle the favorites filter in the sidebar header to display only starred entries. Favorited entries are grouped under their folder path (e.g. “Servers / Production / US-East”), so you can quickly distinguish entries with the same name that live in different folders. Favorites state persists across app restarts.

Search

Type in the sidebar search bar to filter entries by name in real time. Search results are grouped by folder path — each matching entry appears under a section header showing its full folder hierarchy (e.g. “Servers / Production / US-East”). This makes it easy to locate the right entry when multiple connections share the same name across different folders.

Sort Order

Customize the sort order for entries in the sidebar. Choose the ordering that works best for your workflow.

Custom Icons

Assign custom icons from a built-in icon library to any entry or folder. Visual differentiation makes it faster to find what you need at a glance.

Custom Colors

Assign custom colors to entries and folders via a color picker. Color coding helps visually group related connections — for example, red for production, green for development.

Tags

Add tags to entries and credentials for categorization and filtering. Tags provide a cross-cutting organizational layer that works alongside the folder hierarchy.

Descriptions

Add descriptions to entries for additional context. Descriptions appear in the entry details and help team members understand the purpose of a connection.

Notes

Each entry supports rich markdown notes with a GitHub-style Write/Preview editor. A formatting toolbar provides quick access to common markdown syntax.

Notes support a special !!secret!! syntax for masking sensitive inline text. Wrapped text is displayed as dots until clicked, making it safe to store passwords, tokens, or other sensitive information alongside your notes.

Context Menu

Right-click any entry in the sidebar to access a full context menu with the following actions:

• Open
• View Info
• Edit
• Duplicate
• Copy Host
• Move to Folder
• Delete — for folders, shows a confirmation with the total count of contained items before recursively removing the folder and everything inside it

View Info opens the entry dashboard as a persistent tab alongside your active sessions. See the Entry Dashboard section for details.

Context menus are theme-aware with custom styling, SVG icons, and keyboard shortcut hints.
