Lists

Lists are the core organizational layer in Karakeep. Every saved item can sit in multiple lists so you can group links by project, topic, or audience without duplicating them.

Manual lists

• Curated sets you add bookmarks to by hand. Great for projects, reading queues, or hand-picked collections.
• Can be private (visible only to you) or public (share a read-only link).
• Can be collaborative: invite people by email as viewers or editors. Editors can add their own bookmarks; viewers can browse. Your personal states (favourite/archive) stay yours even inside a shared list.

Smart lists

• Auto-updating lists powered by a saved search query (e.g. #ai -archived).
• Best for dynamic views like Youtube links added last week or All reddit links from r/selfhosted.
