SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates end-to-end vault onboarding, ensuring a clean, scalable structure and an organized agent workflow without manual vault edits.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase-driven onboarding: guides the user from initial preferences through life areas, integrations, and templates, creating a reproducible vault blueprint.
  • Vault scaffolding: provisions the canonical folder layout (00-Inbox, 01-Projects, 02-Areas, 03-Resources, 04-Archive, 05-People, 06-Meetings, 07-Daily), MOC, Templates, and Meta docs.
  • Progress persistence: stores post-it style state in Meta/states to resume interrupted onboarding flows and ensure consistency across sessions.

Quick Start

Say "initialize the vault" to start the full onboarding flow.

FAQPage Schema
What folder structure is best for a scalable Obsidian vault?

The onboarding flow provisions canonical folders like 00-Inbox, 01-Projects, and 02-Areas, along with MOC, Templates, and Meta docs. It scaffolds the vault architecture automatically through a multi-phase interview process.

Does the vault onboarding process support multiple languages for user preferences?

Interrupted vault onboarding flows can be resumed because the process persists post-it style state in Meta/states. This ensures consistency across sessions and allows the setup to pick up exactly where it left off.

How do I enforce YAML frontmatter discipline in my Obsidian vault setup?

The vault onboarding process applies a multi-phase interview flow that works in any language. It collects user preferences and provisions the vault architecture regardless of the language used during the guided setup.

Can I include custom resource directories for scripts and references when scaffolding a vault?

YAML frontmatter discipline is enforced automatically during the vault onboarding process for files like SKILL.md. The Skill ensures structured metadata is properly formatted while scaffolding templates and meta docs.

How do I set up a Map of Content (MOC) in Obsidian automatically?

Optional resource directories for scripts, references, and assets are supported during vault scaffolding to enable on-demand execution and documentation. These are provisioned alongside the canonical folder layout.

How do I set up a Map of Content (MOC) in Obsidian automatically?

A Map of Content (MOC) is set up automatically as part of the vault scaffolding process. The onboarding flow provisions the MOC alongside canonical folders, templates, and meta docs to ensure a scalable and organized vault architecture.
