SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

TaskNotes provides a structured approach to planning, tracking, and recalling work in Obsidian by using a consistent task note format with YAML frontmatter and links to design docs and sprints.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • One task per note with YAML frontmatter for status, subtasks, and scheduling.
  • Bidirectional linking to memory-bank sprint contexts, ADRs, and related docs, with a designDoc field for implementation guidance.
  • LLM-first design enabling an AI (Claude Code) to read tasks, consult design docs, and drive implementation steps.

Quick Start

Create a new task Markdown file under docs/TaskNotes/Tasks with a unique uid, open status, and a linked designDoc, then implement the task by following the referenced design document.

The best way to structure Obsidian tasks for an LLM is creating one Markdown note per task with YAML frontmatter, including a unique uid, status, and a designDoc link to guide implementation steps.

Can I link Obsidian task notes to design docs and memory-bank contexts?

Yes, Obsidian task notes can use bidirectional linking to connect with memory-bank sprint contexts, ADRs, and design documents, providing full implementation guidance for the LLM.

How do I create subtasks and schedule work using Obsidian frontmatter?

You create subtasks and schedule work by defining fields within the YAML frontmatter of a task Markdown file, ensuring status tracking and scheduling data follow the TaskNotes schema.

Does AI-assisted task planning in Obsidian require a specific folder structure?

AI-assisted task planning places task Markdown files under a specific directory like docs/TaskNotes/Tasks, ensuring the LLM can consistently locate, read, and process task definitions.
