/skill:vault -- Obsidian Note Management
Purpose: Search, create, and manage notes in the Obsidian vault at /data/obsidian.
Vault Location
/data/obsidian/
└── 00-Inbox/ ← landing zone for new and unsorted notes
Conventions
TODO: Document vault conventions here as they emerge — folder structure beyond Inbox, naming rules, note types, tagging system, linking strategy, template shapes. The skill works without this section but will default to placing new notes in
00-Inbox/and using Title Case naming.
Defaults until overridden:
- New notes land in
00-Inbox/unless a better folder is obvious - Filename: Title Case,
.mdextension - Link with Obsidian
[[wikilink]]syntax - Related notes linked at the bottom of each note
Workflows
Search by Filename
find /data/obsidian -name "*.md" | grep -i "keyword"
Search by Content
grep -rl "keyword" /data/obsidian --include="*.md"
Create a Note
- Choose the right folder (default:
00-Inbox/if unsure) - Name the file — Title Case, no special characters

- Add
[[wikilinks]]to related notes at the bottom
Find Backlinks
grep -rl "\[\[Note Title\]\]" /data/obsidian --include="*.md"
Find Notes in a Folder
