Kb Query

Answer questions from an Obsidian LLM knowledge base and personal note space using raw-source records, wiki synthesis, and human notes with citations and preserved source links. Use when the user asks about knowledge stored in knowledge-base or personal-notes, wants a research answer grounded in sources, or asks for more detail that may require following preserved website links.

File contents

KB Query

Use this skill to answer from the workspace while respecting the boundary between the assistant-maintained knowledge base and human-owned personal notes.

Workflow

Read the vault root AGENTS.md for schema, citation, and conflict rules.
Search knowledge-base/wiki/index.md, knowledge-base/wiki/concepts/, knowledge-base/wiki/entities/, and knowledge-base/wiki/syntheses/ for existing synthesis.
Search knowledge-base/raw/ for raw-source records with summaries, takeaways, keywords, and preserved links.
Search personal-notes/ for relevant human understanding, experiences, project context, or permanent advice.
Answer from local KB content first.
If the user asks for deeper detail and the local record is insufficient, follow preserved URLs from raw-source records and cite the retrieved web detail.
Distinguish source-backed facts, wiki synthesis, and human-authored interpretation.
If evidence conflicts, state the conflict and cite both sides rather than resolving it silently.
If the user asks to save the answer as KB synthesis, create or update a page under knowledge-base/wiki/syntheses/ and log it.

Answer Style

Be precise and evidence-grounded.
Cite local pages with Obsidian links and external sources with markdown links.
Use page, section, file path, commit, or URL locators when available.
Say when the KB does not contain enough evidence.
Do not rewrite personal-note content automatically. Link/frontmatter formatting may be applied directly; for substantive updates under personal-notes/, first list the exact proposed changes and wait for approval.

Persistent Answers

When saving an answer:

Place durable synthesis under knowledge-base/wiki/syntheses/.
Add related concepts or entities if the synthesis creates reusable knowledge.
Update knowledge-base/wiki/index.md.
Append an entry to knowledge-base/wiki/log.md.
Route contradictions or missing evidence to knowledge-base/wiki/review.md.
