Research direction

Start with the issue body and map its two requested behaviors: an "On my Mac" directory whose notes never sync, and a way to disable sync completely. Define how each behavior should be verified, then inspect the repository's existing note storage and sync entry points; the issue names no files or tests to begin with.
