Contact A contact note is a structured node representing a direct personal or professional relationship. It captures interaction history, shared context, and ongoing collaborations. Its primary purpose is to map your active network, linking individuals directly to your projects, meetings, and areas of responsibility.
Creator A creator note represents an author, researcher, or public figure whose work you consume rather than interact with directly. It acts as an anchor for their intellectual output, aggregating associated source notes, methodologies, and core ideas to track their influence across your knowledge base.
Production A production note represents a collective entity, platform, or publisher that produces, hosts, or distributes work. It acts as an umbrella node, grouping affiliated creators, contacts, and source materials to map the broader organizational or media ecosystem behind individual resources and ideas.
Commands
| Action | Command |
|---|---|
| Create people note | python3 ".claude/skills/people/scripts/people.py" create --title "Name" --tag contact/working [options] |
| Update people note | python3 ".claude/skills/people/scripts/people.py" update --title "Name" --tag contact/working [options] |

Where To Get Names
Schema:
Field➔Fast Command➔Fallback(format:obsidian search query="<Fallback>")
category➔rg --files -g "*.md" base/categories➔tag:system/categorymeta➔rg --files -g "*.md" base/_meta-notes➔tag:system/high/metaproblem➔rg --files -g "*.md" base/_problems➔tag:system/high/problem
Recommendation: request names only if the creation script returned an error or the user instructed to add links to these fields. In other cases, use default tools.
