FAQPage Schema
How do I capture AI assistant answers into Obsidian notes automatically?▼

Deduplication ensures only new, unseen AI assistant answers are appended to your Obsidian inbox. It processes session JSONL files and checks against previously logged entries to prevent redundant notes from being captured.

How do I configure session roots and vault paths for note taking automation?▼

To automate note taking, you must configure your Obsidian vault root and session root directories. This setup allows the capture script to correctly locate JSONL files and route new answers into the 00-Inbox folder organized by date and session ID.

Can I use Codex post-operation hooks to trigger automatic capture?▼

Yes, you can integrate with Codex post-operation hooks to trigger automatic capture. This optional integration runs the ingestion process after sessions end, seamlessly transferring AI answers into your Obsidian vault without manual execution.

Does the capture process overwrite existing notes in my Obsidian inbox?▼

Automated capture is ideal after long AI-assisted coding sessions where you generate many code snippets and explanations. It saves these responses into your Obsidian vault, making them easily searchable and referenceable for future distillation.
