- Rewrite AGENTS.md as single operations manual (PARA, permission table, frontmatter conventions, safety rules, code style) - Root CLAUDE.md = one-line pointer to AGENTS.md - Delete 13 stub CLAUDE.md files across vault directories - Delete .claude/project-instructions.md + .claude/memory/instructions/ (content merged into AGENTS.md) - .claude/settings.json: deny plugin data.json + 04_Archive + git push; ask on .obsidian/** edits; remove SessionStart hook (claudesidian welcome) - Delete 3 upstream commands (init-bootstrap, install-claudesidian, upgrade) - Add risk/writes metadata to 14 remaining commands - Rewrite README.md (remove all claudesidian content) - package.json: name → my-vault, remove check-updates/firecrawl scripts

# AGENTS.md — Vault Operations Manual
|
||
|
||
**Purpose**: Single source of truth for AI agents operating in this Obsidian vault.
|
||
**Last Updated**: 2026-09-26
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
## Directory Structure (PARA)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
00_Inbox/ Temporary capture, process weekly
|
||
01_Projects/ Time-bound work with deadlines
|
||
02_Areas/ Ongoing responsibilities (Health, Finance, etc.)
|
||
03_Resources/ Reference materials and knowledge base
|
||
04_Archive/ Completed items and clippings
|
||
05_Attachments/ Media files (images, PDFs)
|
||
06_Metadata/ Templates and reference docs (8 files)
|
||
|
||
.claude/ Agent config, commands, hooks
|
||
.config/ ESLint, Prettier, TypeScript config
|
||
.scripts/ Utility scripts (JS/Python)
|
||
.github/ CI workflows
|
||
.obsidian/ Obsidian app config (do not rewrite)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Permission Table
|
||
|
||
| Path | Rule |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| `00_Inbox/` | Free to create and edit |
|
||
| `01_Projects/` | Edit on request |
|
||
| `03_Resources/` | Edit on request |
|
||
| `02_Areas/` | **Ask before editing** |
|
||
| `04_Archive/` | **Never rewrite** — read-only historical record |
|
||
| `06_Metadata/Templates/` | **Never rewrite** — wired to Obsidian plugins |
|
||
| `.obsidian/` | **Never rewrite** — app config |
|
||
| `.obsidian/plugins/*/data.json` | **Hard deny** — may contain secrets |
|
||
| Credential files (see .gitignore) | **Never read or write** |
|
||
|
||
## Frontmatter Conventions
|
||
|
||
Active notes (00–03) use these core keys:
|
||
- `created` (required) — ISO date `YYYY-MM-DD`
|
||
- `status` — one of: `draft`, `active`, `done`, `archived`
|
||
- `tags`, `type`, `updated` — optional
|
||
|
||
Content keys (never delete): `title`, `description`, `source`, `date`, `author`, `published`, `aliases`
|
||
|
||
**Clipper boundary**: `04_Archive/Inbox-Clippings/**` permanently uses the web clipper schema (`date`/`page-title`/`url`). Never migrate.
|
||
|
||
## Safety Rules
|
||
|
||
1. **Read before writing** — always read a file before editing it
|
||
2. **Never delete without approval** — ask before removing content
|
||
3. **Preserve everything when merging** — only remove verified exact duplicates
|
||
4. **Verify before moving** — check destination exists, update all `[[wikilinks]]` after move
|
||
5. **Never move numbered folders** (00–06) from vault root
|
||
6. **Get approval for bulk operations** affecting 5+ files
|
||
7. **Never commit secrets** — run `.scripts/verify-vault.mjs` before pushing
|
||
|
||
## Git Workflow
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
pnpm lint # Auto-fix before committing
|
||
pnpm lint:check # Verify without changes
|
||
node .scripts/verify-vault.mjs # Secret scanner (CI runs this too)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
- Commit after each work session with descriptive messages
|
||
- Pull before starting work
|
||
- Never force-push to main
|
||
|
||
## Organization Principles
|
||
|
||
- Inbox is temporary — process weekly
|
||
- One idea per note (atomic notes)
|
||
- Flat structure over deep nesting (max 4 levels for new notes)
|
||
- Use links not folders for relationships
|
||
- Link liberally, prefer over-linking
|
||
|
||
## Work Approach
|
||
|
||
- **Simple tasks** — execute directly
|
||
- **Complex changes** — propose plan first (affected files, steps, rollback)

## Scripts — Code Style
|
||
|
||
### JavaScript/TypeScript
|
||
|
||
- Single quotes, semicolons, `node:` prefix for built-in imports
|
||
- `camelCase` functions/variables, `UPPER_SNAKE_CASE` constants, `PascalCase` classes
|
||
- Prefix unused params with `_`
|
||
- Handle errors in async functions, check env vars early
|
||
|
||
### Python
|
||
|
||
- `snake_case` functions/variables, `UPPER_SNAKE_CASE` constants
|
||
- Type hints on function signatures
|
||
|
||
### Config
|
||
|
||
- ESLint: `.config/eslint.config.js`
|
||
- Prettier: `.config/.prettierrc.js`
|
||
- TypeScript: `.config/tsconfig.json`
