Work
What is in flight and what has been done. A stale dashboard is worse than none, because it is the first thing read on arrival — update it when starting, pausing, or finishing something.
Active
Nothing in flight.
Backlog
Raised, understood, and deliberately not done. Each carries why.
| Item | Why it is here |
|---|---|
| Assets emitter ignores the publish filter | assets.ts copies every non-markdown file with no filter. Fix is a patch to that emitter. Reviewed 2026-08-18 and accepted as-is. |
| Broken links inside published notes | They render as dead text on the site. Fixing them is editorial, not mechanical — some want a new note written, others want rewording. |
| A book index note is pure Dataview | Quartz cannot render Dataview, so the query ships as a code block and its chapter notes are unreachable from the site. Fix is a static wikilink list. |
| Obsidian installer is behind the app runtime | Causes a warning on every CLI call and occasional empty output. Fix is a download; not required for anything to work. |
kepano/obsidian-skills not installed | The official Obsidian skills (markdown syntax, Bases, Canvas, defuddle) would complement the vault-specific ones. /plugin marketplace add kepano/obsidian-skills. |
Done
| Date | Work | Log |
|---|---|---|
| 2026-08-19 | Read all 771 notes and distilled the author’s writing style into writing-style.md; adversarially verified (refuters, privacy audit, blind imitation test) and revised. New habit: commit and push to master, publish-gated. | 2026-08-19-styleguide.md |
| 2026-08-18 | Set up Claude Code for the vault: CLI verified, daily-notes misconfiguration fixed, four skills plus the publish audit script written, 354-note frontmatter cleanup applied and verified, this KB started. | 2026-08-18-agent-setup.md |
Conventions
One log per session that changes the vault, named YYYY-MM-DD-<slug>.md. Logs
are append-only and dated: what was done, what was decided and what was rejected,
what was skipped, and what stayed unverified. Record corrections too — a claim
that turned out wrong is worth more than the claim that was right.
