# Repository Guidelines
## Project Structure & Module Organization
This repository is an Obsidian vault organized with the PARA method:
- `000-inbox/`: unprocessed notes and clippings
- `100-project/`: active projects (personal and work)
- `200-area/`: ongoing areas of responsibility
- `300-resources/`: reference material by topic
- `400-archive/`: completed/inactive items
- `Clippings/` and `ReadItLater Inbox/`: saved articles and web clippings
- `copilot/`: AI assistant and automation related content
Top-level files include:
- Daily notes (e.g., `2024-10-28.md`, `2025-12-29.md`) for journaling and daily planning
- `AGENTS.md`: guidelines for AI assistants working with this vault
- `CLAUDE.md`: specific instructions for Claude AI interactions
- Configuration folders: `.obsidian/` (Obsidian settings), `.smart-env/` (environment configs), `.claude/` (Claude settings)
Treat the vault as content, not an app project.
## Build, Test, and Development Commands
There is no build or test system. Use standard shell tools to inspect and edit Markdown files.
- Example: `rg "keyword" 200-area/` for fast search
## Writing Style & Naming Conventions
- Use Markdown for all notes. Keep headings short and sentence-case.
- Prefer ASCII characters unless the note already uses non-ASCII.
- Frontmatter keys should be consistent: `title`, `aliases`, `tags`, `created`, `updated`, `source`.
- Do not modify `.obsidian/`, `.smart-env/`, or `.claude/` configuration folders unless explicitly requested.
- Daily notes follow the format `YYYY-MM-DD.md` and live at the vault root.
## Content Safety & Refactor Rules
- Never delete information. If merging or replacing notes, move originals to `400-archive/` and leave a short stub linking to the new note.
- Keep changes incremental: one clear objective per batch.
- When moving/renaming, update affected wikilinks `[[...]]` across the vault.
## Testing Guidelines
No automated tests are configured. If you make large changes, run a link check if you have one locally, or do a targeted `rg` search to spot broken wikilinks.
## Commit & Pull Request Guidelines
Recent commits use short, descriptive summaries (for example: “Refactor Personal folder structure for improved organization”). If you add backup commits, follow the existing pattern `vault backup: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS`.
PRs should include:
- A brief description of what moved/changed and why
- A list of affected directories (for example `100-project/Personal/`)
- Any manual checks performed (link search, spot review)
## AI Assistant Guidelines
- When working with this vault, respect the PARA organization structure
- Always check for existing wikilinks before moving or renaming files
- Use `rg` or similar tools for fast text search across the vault
- Consider the vault's purpose as a personal knowledge management system
- Maintain consistency with existing naming patterns and organization
- Be mindful of the various configuration folders (`.obsidian/`, `.claude/`, `.smart-env/`) and avoid modifying them unless requested
