Vicinae Extension#

Cairn includes a Vicinae extension that lets you save, search, and browse bookmarks directly from the Vicinae launcher — without leaving your current context.

Features#

• Search — find bookmarks from the Vicinae command palette
• Browse — list all bookmarks in a panel
• Save — add the current browser tab as a bookmark (with optional tags)

Installation#

Via Installer (Recommended)#

If Vicinae is installed, run:

sh install.sh --with-extension

Or on a fresh install:

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ndy40/cairn/main/install.sh | sh -s -- -y --with-extension

Manual#

The extension source is in vicinae-extension/ in the repository. Build with:

cd vicinae-extension
npm install
npm run build

Then register the extension with the vici toolchain.

Requirements#

• Vicinae installed and running
• cairn binary in PATH

The extension delegates all operations to the cairn CLI — no separate daemon or server is needed.

Usage#

Open the Vicinae launcher and use the cairn prefix to interact:
