FAQPage Schema
How do I capture a single idea with provenance and prevent duplicates in my notes?▼

To capture an idea with provenance, the skill creates a dedicated folder with idea, sources, market, and next-steps markdown files. It uses semantic matching against an INDEX.md file to dedup and prevent duplicate entries before committing.

What is the best way to structure captured ideas in a repository folder?▼

The best way to structure captured ideas is using a dated folder format like ideas/YYYY-MM-DD-{slug}/. This skill automatically generates idea.md, sources.md, market.md, and next-steps.md inside the folder to track provenance and next actions.

How does semantic deduplication work when adding a new idea to an index?▼

Semantic deduplication works by comparing your new idea against an existing INDEX.md using semantic matching algorithms. If a match is found, the skill prevents the duplicate from being written, ensuring your ideas repository stays clean and unique.

Can I mirror captured idea folders to a GitHub Issue board automatically?▼

Yes, you can mirror captured ideas to a GitHub Issue board. The skill supports an optional GitHub mirror feature that syncs your newly created idea folder directly to an Ideas board view, provided mirroring is enabled in your configuration.

Do I need a specific configuration file to track idea provenance?▼

Yes, you need a CLAUDE.md file to provide configuration. The skill reads this file to determine settings like the optional GitHub mirror, ensuring your idea capture, folder creation, and index regeneration follow your specific repository rules.
