In [Hook 1.4](https://discourse.hookproductivity.com/t/hook-version-1-4-3143-is-now-available/1200), we fixed issues with linking to Roam notes, by treating # as a significant part of URLs in the roam domain (not as a URL fragment). (Later we intend to make this type of treatment automatic and transparent for various websites that need it.)

@Conaw, is there a URL scheme Hook could use for `Link to New` , so that users could create new Roam notes automatically for Hook? I think all we need is for Roam to provide a URL pattern we can use, assuming that the user is already logged into Roam. I think you would see a lot of new notes being created in Roam, and they could then be linked to anything.
