It would be very useful to me to search for articles without tags.
I have articles with tags of the form:

tags: some list of tags

and

tags:
  - that
  - have
  - more
  - structure

I can probably take on this feature, I just want to know if there are other ideas before I dive in with a PR. Ideally, this functionality exists and I don't know how to access it.

zk list -f oneline -q -t "" | wc -l

This just gives me all the articles I have.

Cool. I can see some use cases for this, and think it would be a valuable addition to the feature set.

I'm not sure there's already a way to filter directly for this. Also, I can't run the command as you've shown, I get an error 🧐:

base > zk list -f oneline -q -t ""
zk: error: --tag: unexpected EOL

I would think you could use the implementation of the zk list --orphan flag as an inspiration / guide as how to approach this. As it's also filtering based on an absence of incoming links. So perhaps the implementation can show how to approach filtering on the absence of tags.

I would think this should be accessed via a flag, like zk list --no-tags / zk list -nt.

Cool @tjex, I'll cut some time out of my weekends.
I don't know about the EOL, still working on mine:
