FAQPage Schema
How do I create and manage notes with YAML frontmatter in a markdown wiki?▼

Create markdown notes with YAML frontmatter headers to standardize metadata, then use wiki-links to connect related notes within your life-os directory structure. This maintains consistent structure across daily notes, goals, projects, and archived content.

Can I use templates to generate new markdown notes automatically?▼

Yes, life-os file operations support template-based note creation. Templates substitute variables and inject YAML frontmatter, ensuring new notes inherit consistent structure for daily logs, projects, and other note types.

How do I link markdown notes together using wiki-link syntax?▼

Wiki-links connect notes by reference within your life-os directory. The Skill reads and validates wiki-link targets, ensuring references resolve correctly across subdirectories like Daily Notes, Goals, and Projects.

What's the best way to organize notes across multiple subdirectories in life-os?▼

Structure notes using life-os subdirectories—Daily Notes, Goals, Projects, Templates, Inbox, Archives—and maintain consistent YAML frontmatter and header levels. The Skill enforces this structure during read and write operations.

How do I edit existing notes while preserving wiki-links and frontmatter?▼

Edit operations preserve YAML frontmatter and wiki-link formatting automatically. The Skill validates structure consistency, preventing accidental corruption of metadata or reference links during updates.

What happens if a wiki-link points to a note that doesn't exist?▼

The Skill validates wiki-link existence before writes, preventing broken references. If a target note is missing, validation fails, alerting you to create the referenced note or update the link.
