Detects stale/conflicting notes, downgrades unverified old information, and annotates context with freshness labels. Guarded mode: warns and labels, never blocks (except completion claims lacking repo evidence).

Capture a thought, idea, or project concept into your Obsidian vault. Modes -- quick (fast idea), route (to specific project), incubate (new project inception), auto (choose based on context).
Close your day. Reviews what you accomplished, surfaces remaining loops, and offers to graduate ideas.
Create a new Obsidian vault for any topic and seed it with an initial knowledge base from web research. Use when the user wants to explore a new idea, start a research project, or create a dedicated space for a tangent they want to investigate later.
Float an idea to the right project in the Obsidian vault. Auto-routes by keyword matching or accepts an explicit project target. Use when the user has a thought, tangent, or idea they want captured but not immediately acted on.
