SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It turns a vague topic into a structured set of wiki pages by running an autonomous, multi-round web research loop and filing results directly into your Obsidian vault.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Iterative web research loop: Decomposes a topic into angles, runs searches, fetches sources, and synthesizes findings into wiki content.
  • Structured knowledge filing: Creates and updates sources, concepts, entities, and a master synthesis page, with traceable citations.
  • Vault mode aware routing: Uses the vault methodology router to write pages into the correct structure (generic, LYT, PARA, or Zettelkasten) for consistent organization.
  • Web egress hygiene & safety guards: Validates URLs, sanitizes fetched content before writing, truncates large bodies, and logs failures without aborting the run.
  • Multi-writer concurrency control: Uses wiki locks to prevent conflicting writes when multiple research runs overlap.

Quick Start

Use the autoresearch skill to research "quantum batteries" and file a complete wiki synthesis with sources, entities, and key concepts into your vault.

Frequently Asked Questions about autoresearch

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate web research and save findings directly into an Obsidian vault?▼

Autoresearch automates web research into Obsidian by running an iterative web search loop that fetches sources and synthesizes findings. It files results directly into your vault by creating structured pages for sources, concepts, entities, and a master synthesis page with traceable citations.

What is the best way to structure autonomous web research into a knowledge base?▼

Structuring autonomous web research is best done by decomposing a topic into angles and running multi-round searches. Using a vault methodology router ensures findings are consistently organized into sources, concepts, entities, and a master synthesis page based on your chosen structure.

Can I run multiple simultaneous research tasks without causing wiki write conflicts?▼

Yes, you can run multiple simultaneous research tasks without wiki write conflicts by using concurrency locking. Multi-writer safety is enforced through wiki locks that prevent conflicting writes when multiple research runs overlap in your Obsidian vault.

Does autonomous web research work with different Obsidian vault structures like Zettelkasten or PARA?▼

Yes, autonomous web research works with different Obsidian vault structures through vault mode aware routing. A vault methodology router writes pages into the correct structure, supporting generic, LYT, PARA, or Zettelkasten methodologies for consistent knowledge organization.

How does web research handle invalid URLs or large fetched content during synthesis?▼

Web research handles invalid URLs and large content through web egress hygiene and safety guards. It validates URLs, sanitizes fetched HTML before writing, truncates large bodies, and logs failures continuously without aborting the research run.
