Description
Limn keeps review rationale attached to the Markdown it explains. Select a passage in a public GitHub Markdown file, leave an anchored discussion, and let Limn relocate that thread as nearby edits move. If it cannot relocate confidently, it marks the thread as detached. Threads stay associated with the repository URL and file path, and a read-only MCP interface lets compatible AI tools retrieve the same context.

Could you build this?
Yes It pairs a GitHub OAuth web viewer with fuzzy text anchoring algorithms (using context windows/fingerprinting) and a basic Model Context Protocol (MCP) server API.
