What it does
- Scans the active note for all wikilink and Markdown-image attachment references
- Proposes new names based on the note title and attachment order
- Shows a full preview diff of every rename before committing any change
- Updates all links in the note after renaming — no broken references left behind
- Records every rename in a local undo log for easy reversal
- Only touches files explicitly referenced in the current note — never batch-modifies the vault
- No network calls, no telemetry, no accounts
