Obsidian Project KB Core

This is the main workflow authority for project-scoped Obsidian knowledge maintenance.

Default project root:

Research/{project-slug}/

Default structure:

00-Hub.md
01-Plan.md
02-Index.md
Sources/
Knowledge/
Experiments/
Results/
  Reports/
Writing/
Daily/
Maps/
Archive/
_system/

Core rules

  • Keep all durable project knowledge inside the current Research/{project-slug}/.
  • Keep repo-local .claude/project-memory/* only as the runtime binding layer.
  • _system/registry.md is the only visible project registry.
  • 02-Index.md is a human navigation note, not a registry mirror.
  • Maps/ is a derived-artifact area; do not generate non-essential canvases by default.
  • Results/Reports/ is the default subdirectory for round and batch experiment reports.

Responsibilities

  • detect and bind the current repo to a project root
  • bootstrap the project skeleton
  • route notes into Sources / Knowledge / Experiments / Results / Results/Reports / Writing / Daily / Maps / Archive
  • update 00-Hub.md, 01-Plan.md, 02-Index.md
  • update _system/registry.md, _system/schema.md, _system/lint-report.md
  • handle note lifecycle actions: create, update, rename, archive, purge, promote, and link repair
  • run deterministic health checks through helper scripts

Deterministic helpers

Use the scripts under scripts/ for:

  • scaffold
  • registry consistency
  • link checks
  • index checks
  • canvas checks
  • lint aggregation

Use agents for:

  • note routing
  • daily promotion decisions
  • source vs knowledge judgment
  • stable-result judgment
  • semantic Hub and Index updates
