FAQPage Schema
How do I organize notes and task logs in Obsidian for fast recall?

Organize notes in your Obsidian vault using structured file-path organization and templates for knowledge, tasks, and glossaries. The Vault skill reads and writes notes with real timestamps and WikiLinks to build a traversable knowledge graph, enabling semantic discovery across project context and task logs.

Can I link notes together in Obsidian to build a knowledge graph?

Yes. WikiLinks connect notes semantically within your vault, and Unix tools like ripgrep and fd enable fast search and navigation across your knowledge base. This builds a traversable graph anchoring atomic facts for easy cross-reference retrieval.

How do I capture and retrieve knowledge from my Obsidian vault programmatically?

Read and write notes directly in your Obsidian vault using the Vault skill to capture knowledge, task logs, and project context. Integration with the Memory skill anchors atomic facts in a retrievable semantic repository with structured templates and real timestamps.

What templates does Obsidian vault integration support for note creation?

The Vault skill applies standardized templates for knowledge notes, task logs, and glossaries. Templates use real timestamps, WikiLinks, and Unix tool search patterns to maintain consistent structure across your vault and enable fast semantic discovery.

Does the Vault skill work with existing Obsidian vaults and project structures?

Yes. The Vault skill integrates with existing Obsidian vaults organized in any file-path structure, supporting knowledge management across project scenarios. It complements the Memory skill by anchoring facts in your vault with real timestamps and WikiLinks for reliable retrieval.
