Description
Create one Obsidian note per Codex session in a dedicated vault folder and include a backlink to today's daily note. Use when asked to dump session context, log work done, or archive session knowledge in Obsidian.

Obsidian Daily Dump

Create a standalone session note. Add a backlink from that session note to the daily note.

Default Paths

Daily note directory:

  • /Users/nsttt/Documents/Nsttt Vault/06 - Journal/Daily

Session note directory:

  • /Users/nsttt/Documents/Nsttt Vault/06 - Journal/Agent Sessions

Override with:

  • OBSIDIAN_DAILY_DIR
  • OBSIDIAN_SESSION_DIR
  • flags --daily-dir and --session-dir

Workflow

  1. Create a short session title (3-7 words) from what was accomplished. Example: Obsidian Session Capture Setup.

  2. Write one short description sentence for the session. Frontmatter + daily backlink line will be inserted at the top of the note.

  3. Build done items as a bullet list only:

- ...
- ...
- ...
  1. Create the note:
cat <<'MD' | bun /Users/nsttt/.codex/skills/obsidian-daily-dump/scripts/create_session_note.ts \
  --heading "Obsidian Session Capture Setup" \
  --summary "Implemented Obsidian session capture workflow."
- ...
- ...
- ...
MD
  1. Confirm printed paths:
  • created session note path
  • daily note backlink target
  • backlink format is wiki-style [[...]]

Guardrails

  • Never overwrite an existing session note.
  • File content must contain only:
    • YAML frontmatter:
      • tags: agent-session
      • date: <YYYY-MM-DD>
    • then line: Daily note: [[...]]
    • one short description sentence
    • one bullet list of done items
  • Keep bullets concrete; avoid filler.
  • Use --date YYYY-MM-DD to target another daily note date.
  • Default filename format: <Heading> - YYYY-MM-DD.md.
  • --heading is required and should be a short descriptive session title.
  • --summary is required and should be a short description sentence.
  • Use --filename to force a specific file name.
  • Use --dry-run to preview file paths and note content.
  • Allow script to create the daily note file if missing.

Script

Path:

  • /Users/nsttt/.codex/skills/obsidian-daily-dump/scripts/create_session_note.ts

Usage:

bun create_session_note.ts [--daily-dir PATH] [--session-dir PATH] [--date YYYY-MM-DD] --heading TEXT --summary TEXT [--content TEXT] [--filename NAME.md] [--dry-run]

Input source:

  • done items from --content text, or piped STDIN if --content is omitted.
