# obsidian-knowledge-brain

Keeps project decisions and bug fixes available across agent sessions, then builds a searchable knowledge base and updates project rules. Obsidian is optional.

## What it does

The skill records a bug fix in `memory/_phase1_inbox.md` as soon as the issue is resolved. Technical decisions are gathered at the end of a session instead, so documenting them does not interrupt the work. The knowledge base uses Markdown files in the agent directory, and Obsidian can display the project’s knowledge graph if you open that folder as a vault.

Claude Code runs the automatic steps through hooks and cron. With Cursor, Gemini CLI, and Codex, some steps need a manual trigger. You need an AI agent that can read and write files, plus a project directory. Python 3.x is recommended for hook scripts, though the protocols can also be run manually. Gemini CLI and Codex require a check that their always-loaded instruction file is actually being loaded; otherwise Pre-action may not run automatically.

## Requirements
- Works with: Obsidian

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Tubo2333/obsidian-knowledge-brain --skill obsidian-knowledge-brain -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/obsidian-knowledge-brain/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/obsidian-knowledge-brain/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Tubo2333/obsidian-knowledge-brain --skill obsidian-knowledge-brain -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/obsidian-knowledge-brain/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Tubo2333/obsidian-knowledge-brain --skill obsidian-knowledge-brain -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/obsidian-knowledge-brain/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install Tubo2333/obsidian-knowledge-brain obsidian-knowledge-brain
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/obsidian-knowledge-brain/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Tubo2333/obsidian-knowledge-brain --skill obsidian-knowledge-brain -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/Tubo2333/obsidian-knowledge-brain
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/obsidian-knowledge-brain/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Tubo2333/obsidian-knowledge-brain --skill obsidian-knowledge-brain -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/Tubo2333/obsidian-knowledge-brain/tree/HEAD/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- keep bug fixes available after an agent session ends
- turn session decisions into searchable project knowledge
- refresh project rules from completed work
- view project knowledge links as an Obsidian graph

## Example prompts
- Record this bug fix in the project memory after you resolve it.
- Summarize this session and save its technical decisions.
- Diagnose the project and set up its knowledge memory.

# Obsidian Knowledge Brain v4.0 / Obsidian 知识大脑 v4.0

**Schema**: 4.0 | **Lines**: ≤200 | **Load**: Always (if skill active)
**Platforms**: **Claude Code** — full auto (hooks + cron). **Cursor / Gemini CLI / Codex** — manual trigger (type "收尾" to save, "诊断" to bootstrap). Requires an AI Agent with file read/write. Not designed for plain-terminal or Agent-free use. / CC 全自动，其他平台需手动输入口令触发。

**Upgrade from v2.0**: zero vault dependency (无 vault 依赖), project-local `.claude/` storage. Obsidian is now optional — open your project folder as a vault for knowledge graph visualization. / Obsidian 现为可选——将项目文件夹作为 vault 打开即可获得知识图谱可视化。

**What this does / 它做什么**: Every time you debug an error or make a technical decision with an AI agent, that knowledge vanishes when the session ends. This skill **remembers** — it captures your decisions and error fixes across sessions, builds a searchable knowledge base, and evolves project rules automatically. A personal project librarian that learns from every conversation. / 每次和 AI 编程解决了 bug、做了技术决策，下次对话就忘了。这个 Skill 帮你**记住**——自动捕获每次会话的决策和错误，构建可检索的知识库，持续进化项目规则。一个从每次对话中学习的项目图书管理员。

**Obsidian?** Not required. v4.0 stores knowledge as `.md` files in your agent directory. Open your project as an Obsidian vault to browse the knowledge graph — purely optional. See §0a. / 非必需。用 Obsidian 打开项目文件夹即可浏览知识图谱——完全可选。

→ **First time?** See `references/quickstart.md` (5-minute walkthrough / 5分钟上手).

## 0. Critical Rules / 关键规则 (Priority 0)

**v4.0 dual rule / 双规则**:

1. **[ERROR:] stubs — IMMEDIATE after fix / 修复后立即记录。** After resolving ANY error, BEFORE writing the permanent fix, append a one-line stub to `memory/_phase1_inbox.md`:
   `[ERROR: type=<from-taxonomy> | resolution=<fix> | project: <slug>]`
   This is the FINAL step of every error fix. NOT deferred to session end. Skipping this and hitting the same error again → `[ERROR: type=missed-record | error_type=<type>]`.

2. **[DECISION:] annotations — session end only / 仅会话结束时。** Do NOT interrupt work to annotate decisions mid-session. Work normally. At session end (T2 "收尾"), extract ALL technical decisions from the session transcript into `[DECISION:]` format. This is a memory system — it learns from completed experiences, not live interruptions.
