Vault Format

Dual-Reader Principle

Notes are read by both humans (via Obsidian/editors) and AI (raw markdown). Write so both have a good experience.

Avoid:

Dataview blocks (AI sees dead code)
Content that depends on embeds ![[]] resolving
Heavy callout syntax

Use freely:

Wikilinks [[Note Title]] (both can follow)
YAML frontmatter (both can parse)
Standard markdown

Note Structure

tags:
  - tag1

Conventions

Frontmatter: YAML with 3-7 specific tags

Links: Inline wikilinks [[Note Title]] or [[Note Title|display text]]

No separate "Related Notes" section - links belong in context

Sources: Inline attribution (Author, Year), full references in ## Sources section
