FAQPage Schema
How do I automate inbox processing for loose notes and emails in my vault?▼

Automating vault inbox routing involves scanning 00-Inbox, categorizing items, and moving them to destination folders like 20-Sources or 30-Galaxy. The skill then logs these routing actions to 40-Meta/ai-changes.md and generates a summary for review.

What is the best way to organize daily notes and route them to specific folders?▼

Organizing and routing daily notes is achieved by reading frontmatter metadata to determine item type and destination. The skill scans 00-Inbox, routes files to folders like 30-Galaxy, and produces a structured scan output with a compact run overview.

Can I use frontmatter metadata to categorize and route files in my vault automatically?▼

Yes, frontmatter metadata is used to categorize and route files automatically. The skill relies on frontmatter metadata to determine the type and routing destination for inbox items, moving them to the correct folders and logging the results.

How do I log vault changes and generate summaries when processing new material?▼

To log vault changes when processing new material, the skill appends actions to 40-Meta/ai-changes.md. It updates this log and generates compact run overviews and event summaries to report results to the user after routing items.

Does repeated inbox processing work without duplicating log entries?▼

Yes, repeated inbox processing works by scanning only the active 00-Inbox folder and moving processed items to 00-Inbox/processed. This ensures subsequent runs only process new material, keeping logs and routing actions clean without duplicating past entries.
