Command definition
help.mddescription: Show everything the Obsidian Knowledge Agent can do, with every command and an example
argument-hint: [optional: a command name to explain in depth, e.g. "research"]
If `$ARGUMENTS` names a specific command, explain THAT command in depth — what it does, when to reach for it, and a worked example — then stop. Otherwise present this guide, clean and skimmable (keep the grouping and the examples):
Obsidian Knowledge Agent — what I can do
I turn anything — a link, a stray thought, a PDF, a whole syllabus — into notes worth keeping, and I learn your vault's conventions as we go. Talk to me naturally ("save this", "research X", "organize my inbox") or use a command:
▸ Start here
- `/obsidian-knowledge:setup` — set this folder up as a vault. Adapts: scaffolds an empty folder, or adopts an existing vault and fills only the gaps.
- `/obsidian-knowledge:help [command]` — this guide. Add a name for detail, e.g. `… :help research`.
▸ Capture & build
- `/obsidian-knowledge:capture <thing>` — save one quick, clean note. e.g. `:capture https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03762`
- `/obsidian-knowledge:ingest [what]` — build notes from `Inbox/` (or what you point at) at the right depth.
- `/obsidian-knowledge:research <topic>` — research from the web and write teaching notes with sources. e.g. `:research how RoPE positional encoding works`
- `/obsidian-knowledge:log <text>` — append a timestamped line to today's daily log.
▸ Improve & maintain
- `/obsidian-knowledge:polish [note|folder]` — improve existing notes in place (defaults to recently changed).
- `/obsidian-knowledge:refactor <change>` — reorganize safely and rewire links. e.g. `:refactor split the Transformers note`
- `/obsidian-knowledge:doctor [folder]` — health check: broken links, orphans, missing frontmatter.
- `/obsidian-knowledge:clean [message]` — commit changed notes, clear processed Inbox (with approval), push.
▸ Learn (I improve myself)
- `/obsidian-knowledge:reflect` — capture lessons from recent work and propose rule updates.
- `/obsidian-knowledge:evolve` — review and approve my proposed rule changes.
**Try this first:** `:setup` → drop a source in `Inbox/` → `:ingest` → `:polish` → `:reflect`.
What I've learned about this vault lives in `.agents/learned/` — plain markdown you can read or prune anytime.

Talk to your vault. It does the rest. You drop it in. It files, it teaches, and it remembers how you like your notes. Point any agentic assistant at your Obsidian vault and talk to it — "save this link", "organize my inbox", "ingest the syllabus in Inbox".
