FAQPage Schema
How do I roll over unchecked tasks from previous days into an Obsidian daily note?

Rolling over unchecked tasks in Obsidian daily notes is done by automatically extracting uncompleted items from the past seven days and merging them into the current note. This ensures task continuity by carrying forward pending items without manual duplication.

Can I generate daily notes for a specific date instead of just today?

Generating daily notes for a specific date is supported by populating the note with date-specific links and information. The skill handles both the current date and any specified date within your Obsidian vault structure.

What happens if I run daily note generation multiple times on the same day?

Running daily note generation multiple times on the same day performs a non-destructive merge of rollover items. It safely integrates new pending tasks into existing notes without duplicating previously rolled over items.

How many days of uncompleted tasks will be carried forward when I create a new daily note?

Uncompleted tasks from the previous seven days are carried forward when creating a new daily note. The skill scans the past week to extract unchecked items while maintaining provenance links back to their original notes.
