Commentarii Roamani: Roam Depot Gems: Roam Copilot
|
Commentarii Roamani We are starting 2026 by looking at Roam Copilot, an AI assistant that brings context-aware help into your Roam workspace. ♦️Roam Depot Gems: Roam Copilot♦️How to set it upGo to Roam Depot and search for Roam Copilot by qcrao. Install it. Then, in the settings, choose your AI provider. Find, copy, and paste your API key (using the given links) Copilot is now installed! Open it from the lightbulb icon in the bottom-right corner and start a new chat. How it worksRoam Copilot reads the content of the page you are currently on, along with any blocks that are visible in the sidebar, and uses that combined context as the input for the model. You interact with the model of your choice through a chat panel on the right side of your workspace, where you can ask questions, request summaries, generate outlines, explore arguments, develop ideas, etc... and the responses are grounded in the material that you opened and are looking at. One of the features that makes this extension so special is how intuitive and easy it is to use! You can start new conversations whenever you want, return to previous ones, and keep the panel minimized when you are not using it, so it stays available without getting in the way of your usual workflow. Another thing that makes this tool so practical is the built-in templates, and the option to build your own custom templates. Roam Copilot is a very cool and promising addition to the Roam ecosystem (thanks qcrao!), because it brings AI support directly into the graph and turns your intertwined notes and open context into something you can actively think with! More information is available on the Roam Copilot page in Roam Depot. If you try it, we’d love to hear how it fits into your workflow ☃️ We hope you are all having a great beginning of 2026, join our slack channel here, and don't forget to check out the Roam help graph for updates!

Commentarii Roamani Reading produces value when a thought interrupts the page. A sentence lands, a question forms, a connection starts to appear, and then the article keeps moving. What matters is whether that moment turns into something you can work with later. Roam Reader is your tool for reading intentionally: remix your notes, comment on them, tag them, nest them.

Commentarii Roamani In this issue, we look at Better Tasks, a Roam Depot extension by Mark Lavercombe that brings structured, repeatable task logic directly into your graph. It treats each TODO as a block with clear attributes: repeat, start, defer, due so you can manage tasks without leaving Roam or maintaining a second system. 💎 Roam Depot Gems: Better Tasks 💎 Better Tasks works quietly: when you complete a repeating task, the extension can generate the next instance on the correct day...
