Daniel 3ad61b984d feat: v1.1 — URL ingestion, vision, delta tracking, 3 new skills, auto-commit
Skills (new):
- skills/obsidian-markdown/ — full Obsidian Flavored Markdown syntax reference
  (wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties, math, Mermaid)
- skills/obsidian-bases/ — Obsidian Bases (.base files) with correct filters/views/
  formulas syntax (sourced from kepano/obsidian-skills authoritative spec)
- skills/defuddle/ — web page cleaner; strips ads/nav before URL ingestion,
  saves 40-60% tokens on web articles

wiki-ingest upgrades:
- URL ingestion: pass https:// directly, auto-fetches + runs defuddle if available
- Image/vision ingestion: .png/.jpg/.gif etc → Claude reads → description saved
  to .raw/ → standard ingest pipeline
- Delta tracking: .raw/.manifest.json tracks hash per source, skips unchanged files

wiki-query upgrades:
- Quick mode (query quick:) — hot.md + index only, ~1500 tokens
- Standard mode — existing behaviour, 3-5 pages
- Deep mode (query deep:) — full wiki + optional web search supplement

hooks:
- PostToolUse auto-commit: every Write/Edit to wiki/ or .raw/ triggers
  git add + commit automatically, vault always versioned

fixes:
- Removed invalid allowed-tools field from all 10 SKILL.md files
  (not a valid skill frontmatter attribute per spec; was silently ignored)
- Canvas SKILL.md now references json-canvas open standard and kepano/obsidian-skills

wiki research:
- Ecosystem research: 16+ Claude+Obsidian projects mapped and filed
- New pages: comparisons/claude-obsidian-ecosystem, concepts/cherry-picks,
  entities/ (6 new), sources/claude-obsidian-ecosystem-research
- Cherry-picks roadmap filed at wiki/concepts/cherry-picks.md

Save the current conversation, answer, or insight into the Obsidian wiki vault as a
structured note. Analyzes the chat, determines the right note type, creates frontmatter,
files it in the correct wiki folder, and updates index, log, and hot cache.
Triggers on: "save this", "save that answer", "/save", "file this",
"save to wiki", "save this session", "file this conversation", "keep this",
"save this analysis", "add this to the wiki".

# save — File Conversations Into the Wiki
Good answers and insights shouldn't disappear into chat history. This skill takes what was just discussed and files it as a permanent wiki page.
The wiki compounds. Save often.
---
## Note Type Decision
Determine the best type from the conversation content:
| Type | Folder | Use when |
|------|--------|---------|
| synthesis | wiki/questions/ | Multi-step analysis, comparison, or answer to a specific question |
| concept | wiki/concepts/ | Explaining or defining an idea, pattern, or framework |
| source | wiki/sources/ | Summary of external material discussed in the session |
| decision | wiki/meta/ | Architectural, project, or strategic decision that was made |
| session | wiki/meta/ | Full session summary — captures everything discussed |
If the user specifies a type, use that. If not, pick the best fit based on the content. When in doubt, use `synthesis`.
---
## Save Workflow
1. **Scan** the current conversation. Identify the most valuable content to preserve.
2. **Ask** (if not already named): "What should I call this note?" Keep the name short and descriptive.
3. **Determine** note type using the table above.
4. **Extract** all relevant content from the conversation. Rewrite it in declarative present tense (not "the user asked" but the actual content itself).
5. **Create** the note in the correct folder with full frontmatter.
6. **Collect links**: identify any wiki pages mentioned in the conversation. Add them to `related` in frontmatter.
7. **Update** `wiki/index.md` — add the new entry at the top of the relevant section.
8. **Append** to `wiki/log.md` — new entry at the TOP:
```
## [YYYY-MM-DD] save | Note Title
- Type: [note type]
- Location: wiki/[folder]/Note Title.md
- From: conversation on [brief topic description]
```
9. **Update** `wiki/hot.md` to reflect the new addition.
10. **Confirm**: "Saved as [[Note Title]] in wiki/[folder]/."
---
## Frontmatter Template
```yaml
---
type: <synthesis|concept|source|decision|session>
title: "Note Title"
created: YYYY-MM-DD
updated: YYYY-MM-DD
tags:
- <relevant-tag>
status: developing
related:
- "[[Any Wiki Page Mentioned]]"
sources:
- "[[.raw/source-if-applicable.md]]"
---
```
For `question` type, add:
```yaml
question: "The original query as asked."
answer_quality: solid
```
For `decision` type, add:
```yaml
decision_date: YYYY-MM-DD
status: active
```
---
## Writing Style
- Declarative, present tense. Write the knowledge, not the conversation.
- Not: "The user asked about X and Claude explained..."
- Yes: "X works by doing Y. The key insight is Z."
- Include all relevant context. Future sessions should be able to read this page cold.
- Link every mentioned concept, entity, or wiki page with wikilinks.
- Cite sources where applicable: `(Source: [[Page]])`.
---
## What to Save vs. Skip
Save:
- Non-obvious insights or synthesis
- Decisions with rationale
- Analyses that took significant effort
- Comparisons that are likely to be referenced again
- Research findings
Skip:
- Mechanical Q&A (lookup questions with obvious answers)
- Setup steps already documented elsewhere
- Temporary debugging sessions with no lasting insight
- Anything already in the wiki
If it's already in the wiki, update the existing page instead of creating a duplicate.
