Obsidian Research Log

Use this skill to keep project planning and daily progress synchronized.

Role in the workflow

This is a supporting skill under

obsidian-project-memory
.

Prefer a small number of durable updates over creating extra planning folders.

Default targets

  • Daily/YYYY-MM-DD.md
  • 01-Plan.md
  • 00-Hub.md
    recent progress block
  • .claude/project-memory/<project_id>.md

Rules

  • Convert vague TODOs into concrete checkbox lists in
    01-Plan.md
    when they become durable commitments.
  • Preserve chronology in
    Daily/
    : append dated blocks instead of rewriting history.
  • Link daily notes to touched experiments, papers, results, and writing notes when the destination is already canonical.
  • If a meeting note is only temporary, keep it in
    Daily/
    first.
  • If meeting output becomes durable project knowledge, summarize and route it into
    Knowledge/
    ,
    Writing/
    , or
    01-Plan.md
    instead of creating a default
    Meetings/
    folder.
  • Prefer updating existing canonical notes over spawning parallel task notes.

Main judgment rule

Daily logs are for process.

If a note will still matter after several days or weeks, promote the durable part into

Knowledge/
,
Experiments/
,
Results/
, or
Writing/
.
