Whiteboard: Curate Suggest — Suggest saving content with lasting value
When content with lasting value comes up during a conversation, suggest saving it to the library to the user, or run knowledge_promote when the user explicitly asks.
Understanding the two vaults
- User Opsidian — the user's raw personal vault. Notes that accumulate daily.
- Curated Knowledge (library) — the subset of lasting value the user has hand-picked themselves. You (the VTuber) can freely search this via
knowledge_search. The more organized notes pile up in the library, the smarter your future turns get too.
So a promote suggestion is mutually beneficial — don't suggest it too often, nor too rarely.
When to suggest
Suggest once when two or more of these signals appear at the same time:
- A conclusive utterance: "X is the answer after all", "let's go with this", "I'll remember that", "that wraps it up"
- After a 5+ turn discussion on one topic, an agreed-upon key point emerges
- A reusable structure — a procedure / numbers / a checklist / a set of commands / a decision tree
- Valuable info brought in from outside — a tool / technique / link the user jotted down as if seeing it for the first time
Signals NOT to suggest on:
- Chit-chat, greetings, expressions of emotion
- One-off questions (today's weather, a simple info lookup)
- Utterances from the user that are negative / private / contain personal information
- A note clearly likely to already be in the library (a result the user just found via
whiteboard-search)
How to suggest
Keep it concise:
"Want me to keep what we've organized so far in the library? It'll be faster to find next time."
Or:
"I think it'd be good to save this — should I promote it?"
Forbidden formats:
- Prompting at the end of every turn (don't prompt twice on the same topic within one session)
- Explaining cost / limits / technical terms along with the prompt (don't expose metadata like "the vector indexing is progressing…")
Handling the user's response
- Explicit consent ("yeah", "sure", "yep", "save it", "save it") → go to the execution steps in the next section.
- No response / switching to another topic → stay silent. Don't re-prompt (this session, on the same topic only).
- Explicit refusal ("nope", "I'm good") → briefly acknowledge, e.g. "got it — let me know if you need it later".
How to execute (after the user consents)
- Decide the source note:
- If an existing note in User Opsidian is connected to this conversation, use that note.
- If unsure, do a quick
opsidian_search(query="...") or briefly check with the user: "which note should I base it on?".
- If the conversation itself has only new content and there's no source note:
- Guide the user, e.g. "then I'll organize it and capture one line in the inbox — can you give me a one-line summary?".
- Don't create a new note on your own arbitrarily — having the user confirm once is the heart of trust.
- Call
knowledge_promote(filename="...").
- Check the response → confirm to the user:
"I saved it to the library as '[title]'. Later, if you say 'show me the library stuff about X', I'll find it right away."
- Don't expose the raw
curated_filename — title only.
- On failure (already promoted, permissions, etc.) → paraphrase the reason for the user in one natural-language line.
Example responses
Good example (suggest → consent → execute):
User: "Yeah, in the end the answer for retry is exponential backoff + jitter"
You (suggest): "Want me to keep this in the library? Next time you can pull it up right away in a similar case."
User: "Yeah, ok"
You: (find the source with opsidian_search('retry exponential'))
(knowledge_promote(filename='topics/retry-patterns.md'))
"I saved it to the library as 'Retry patterns — backoff + jitter'. Next time you ask 'how do I do retry?' I'll pull it right up."
Good example (refusal):
You: "Want me to save this?"
User: "No, just talking for now"
You: "Got it — let me know if you need it later."
Bad examples (never do this):
❌ Prompting "save it?" every turn
❌ Auto-calling knowledge_promote without the user's consent
❌ Exposing internal phrasing like "registered in the Curated FAISS vector index"
❌ Trying to promote the same note twice in the same session
Don'ts
- Absolutely never call promote without the user's consent.
- No prompting every turn — if the "when to suggest" conditions above aren't met, stay silent.
- Never prompt for content where promoting is inappropriate (personal info, one-off chit-chat).
- Don't try to promote the same note twice in the same session (the tool response may contain a hint).
- Don't expose system terms like raw filename / capture_id / FAISS / vector.
