Perplexity's Sonar API stopped embedding inline citation markers in
message.content; responses now return prose plus separate citations
and search_results arrays. The plugin's addCitations() rendered a
correct bibliography, but the body had nothing to anchor the numbers
to.
Prepend a system message telling the model to append [1], [2], ...
markers inline, ordered to match search_results. All three payload
build sites now share one messagesWithSystem array.

Brings LMStudioModal, TextEnhancementModal, and TextEnhancementWithImagesModal
to the same shape as Ask Perplexity / Ask Claude / Ask Perplexica:
modalEl.addClass(...) wide-modal unlock, sectioned header/section/footer
layout, BEM-scoped class names, native Obsidian Setting components for
dropdowns and toggles, custom textareas where Setting is a poor fit,
Cmd/Ctrl+Enter submit, mobile breakpoint at 600px.
LMStudioModal: model dropdown with live taglines, Max Tokens input,
Temperature slider (0-2 with dynamic tooltip), optional System Prompt
textarea, Images + Stream toggles.
TextEnhancementModal + TextEnhancementWithImagesModal: read-only
Selected Text textarea (background-secondary tint to distinguish from
editable input) + editable prompt pre-filled from the plugin template,
button busy-state during the call.
Bonus: TextEnhancementWithImagesModal CSS class name now matches the
file/class name (was 'get-related-images-modal' on the .ts side while
the file was text-enhancement-with-images-modal.css).

- Split monolithic main.ts into modular services and modals
- Created separate service classes: PerplexityService,
PerplexicaService, LMStudioService
- Created modular modal classes: PerplexityModal, PerplexicaModal,
LMStudioModal, URLUpdateModal
- Deleted unused legacy files: CitationModal.ts, citationService.ts,
cleanReferencesSectionService.ts
## New Features
- Added ArticleGeneratorModal for one-page article generation with
predefined prompts
- Implemented intelligent image placement with [IMAGE n:
description] markers
- Added auto-scrolling during streaming responses for better
UX
- Created full callout formatting for query blocks with
multi-line support
## UI/UX Improvements
- Moved all inline styles to dedicated CSS files for
better maintainability
- Created modular CSS structure: perplexity-modal.css,
article-generator-modal.css, etc.
- Added proper spacing and padding to text inputs
across all modals
- Fixed sources placement to appear after last
non-empty line (no more huge gaps)
- Enhanced modal layouts with better visual
hierarchy
## Build System
- Updated esbuild.config.mjs to properly bundle
CSS files
- Created src/styles/main.css as CSS entry
point
- Implemented proper CSS build process with
minification support
## Bug Fixes
- Fixed TypeScript errors from unused
imports and parameters
- Resolved streaming scroll issues with
proper cursor tracking
- Fixed multi-line query formatting in
callout blocks
- Corrected sources insertion logic
for both streaming and
non-streaming responses
## Code Quality
- Improved separation of concerns
with service/modal architecture
- Enhanced maintainability with
modular CSS structure
- Added comprehensive error
handling and logging
- Implemented consistent
coding patterns across all
services
## Technical Details
- Services now handle API
calls, streaming, and
response processing
- Modals focus purely on
UI and user
interaction
- CSS uses Obsidian's
design system
variables for
theming
- All modals support
both streaming and
non-streaming
modes
- Image placement
supports both
inline markers
and fallback
sections
