Usage Examples

Prompt Template

Automate the following Obsidian vault workflow: [TASK]. Use Claude Code to [SPECIFIC_ACTION] in the vault located at [VAULT_PATH]. Ensure all changes are committed to Git with the message '[COMMIT_MESSAGE]'. If errors occur, log them to [LOG_FILE] and suggest fixes. Example tasks: 'generate daily notes for [DATE_RANGE]', 'extract all backlinks for [[TARGET_NOTE]]', or 'sync tags across [NOTE_PATTERN]'.

```markdown
# Automated Obsidian Workflow Report
**Task:** Generate daily notes for 2024-01-01 to 2024-01-07
**Vault Path:** ~/Obsidian/SecondBrain
**Actions Completed:**
1. Created 7 daily notes with YAML frontmatter (tags: #daily #log)
2. Added template variables for [[Daily Template]]
3. Committed changes to Git with message: 'feat: add Jan 1-7 daily notes'
4. Generated backlink report for [[Productivity]] (found 12 references)
