date: [YYYY-MM-DD]
key_people: [comma-separated names mentioned]
key_concepts: [3-5 main ideas, comma-separated]
related: [[concept-1]], [[person-1]], [[project-1]]

## Summary
[3-5 sentence summary of what this is and why it matters]
- Add [[wikilinks]] on first mention of any person, concept, or project that has an existing note
- Create folder if it doesn't exist (no error — just create it)
- Save to the correct path:
C:\Users\Administrator\.claude\knowledge\<topic>\<YYYY-MM-DD-title>.md
C:\Users\Administrator\.claude\projects\<project-name>\<YYYY-MM-DD-title>.md
Naming conventions
- Folder: kebab-case topic (
rf-engineering, job-hunting, azure-chocolates, fitness)
- File: date-prefixed kebab-case (
2026-06-18-exa-ai-overview.md)
After saving
- Report: saved path, classification decision, key concepts extracted, and any [[wikilinks]] created
- Suggest 1-2 related existing notes to cross-link if found
