SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? An overflowing Obsidian inbox makes it hard to see what needs processing. This Skill scans the 00. Входящие folder and produces a structured report showing what each note is, which category it belongs to, and what action to take — without modifying any files. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Read-only inbox scan: Lists all notes in the inbox (or only those tagged #inbox/review), sorted by modification date, with zero file changes. - Categorization and prioritization: Maps each note to a structural tag and target folder (thought, MOC, person, source, project, meeting, journal, archive) and ranks items by links to active projects, TODO markers, and age. - Structured report output: Delivers a prioritized report with high/medium priority items, open questions, archive candidates, and summary statistics. - Use Case: You return from vacation to 40 unprocessed inbox notes. Run the review to get a triaged list, then hand off the actual processing to obsidian-refactor-inbox. ## Quick Start Review my Obsidian inbox and tell me what is in there and what I should do with each note.

Frequently Asked Questions about obsidian-inbox-review

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I review my Obsidian inbox without changing any files?▼

Run an inbox review that scans the `00. Входящие` folder, reads each note, and outputs a categorized report with recommended tags, folders, and actions. The review is strictly read-only — no tags, moves, or frontmatter edits are applied.

How to triage unprocessed notes in an Obsidian vault?▼

Each note is analyzed for its main topic, existing wikilinks, and MOC mentions, then mapped to a structural tag like #thought, #moc, #project, or #meeting with a target folder. Notes are prioritized by links to active projects, TODO markers, and recency.

What is the difference between obsidian-inbox-review and obsidian-refactor-inbox?▼

obsidian-inbox-review only inspects and reports — it never modifies files. obsidian-refactor-inbox performs the actual processing: adding tags, creating links, and moving notes to their target folders based on the review.

Can I review only notes tagged #inbox/review in Obsidian?▼

Yes. The scan can filter to only notes containing the #inbox/review tag using a ripgrep search, instead of listing the entire inbox folder. This is useful for focused review sessions on flagged items.

When should I not use an inbox review workflow?▼

Skip the review when you want to process a note immediately (use obsidian-refactor-inbox), only update frontmatter (use obsidian-enrich-note), split a large note (use obsidian-split-note), or build a topic map (use obsidian-note-canvas-map).
