SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Unified vaults of typed notes often become a tangle of unstructured data. This skill turns that vault into a structured, queryable index and enables cross-type insights without requiring costly language-model runs for every extraction.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Extracts and standardizes metadata from every typed file (books, meetings, people, articles, goals, etc.)
  • Optional knowledge-graph extraction and wikilinks to surface cross-document patterns
  • Cross-type insight engine to reveal relationships not visible in a single file
  • Zero LLM cost per run for metadata extraction and insights
  • Use to refresh your vault's queryable index or discover cross-doc patterns

Quick Start

Run /second-brain-mapping to generate metadata and cross-document insights from your vault.

FAQPage Schema
How do I extract metadata from multiple typed notes in my vault?

Cross-document insights are surfaced by an insight engine that analyzes standardized metadata and wikilinks across different document types to reveal relationships not visible within a single file.

Does metadata extraction from a vault require LLM costs per run?

Running the metadata extraction indexes your vault by executing a single non-LLM workflow command that extracts structured metadata and generates cross-type insights from your typed files.

Can I build a knowledge graph from wikilinks in my vault notes?

Vault mapping is best handled by deterministic extraction when you have large volumes of typed files like goals and articles, whereas LLM-based extraction suits unstructured notes but incurs higher costs.

What are the limitations of non-LLM metadata extraction for knowledge graphs?

Vault mapping is best handled by deterministic extraction when you have large volumes of typed files like goals and articles, whereas LLM-based extraction suits unstructured notes but incurs higher costs.
