fix: add symlink support to find commands#30
Merged
Conversation
The find commands in tag search and link following were failing when vault_path was a symbolic link because find doesn't follow symlinks by default. This caused "No tags found in frontmatter" errors and link following failures when using symlinked vaults. Added -L flag to find commands to follow symbolic links in: - search_tags() function in notes.lua - follow_link() fuzzy search fallback in links.lua This allows the plugin to work correctly with symlinked vault directories (e.g., ~/personal/docs/notes -> ~/personal/repos/notes).
