Obsidian vault organization is automated by routing inbox items into PARA folders and wiki pages. The system updates cross-links and indexes while applying YAML frontmatter rules to ensure structured knowledge management.

Multiple Obsidian vaults can be managed through a filesystem-only workflow that avoids Obsidian app dependencies. The system queries and synthesizes content across vaults using deterministic scripts and a wiki index.

Health checks are performed using a lint operation that executes lint-check.sh scripts. This validates vault integrity by inspecting YAML frontmatter, verifying cross-links, and maintaining log entries for traceable mutations.

YAML frontmatter is required for automated note routing. The system uses specific frontmatter fields like type and title to classify inbox files and determine their correct PARA folder or wiki page destination.

Automatic inbox processing is scheduled using CronCreate to run four times a day. This triggers the ingest operation to route new files into structured PARA folders and update the wiki index autonomously.

Cross-vault note synthesis is handled by a query operation that searches across multiple vaults. It aggregates content from the filesystem using a wiki index, enabling knowledge synthesis without requiring the Obsidian application.
