Auto-Categorize

Convert raw input into a classified vault note — the fast path for capturing knowledge.

Unlike /new-note (interactive selection), this skill analyzes content and proposes classification automatically.

Workflow

1. Identify input: raw text pasted in conversation, a URL (fetch with WebFetch), or a topic the user described.

2. Classify: Read CLAUDE.md for the schema. Determine best type and tags (kebab-case). Consider content kind (code? tutorial? reference?) for type, and topics for tags.

3. Present: Show proposed title, type, and tags. Ask the user to confirm or adjust — quick confirmation, not interactive menu.

4. Generate: Read the matching template from Templates/<Type>.md. Format content appropriately for the type.

5. Write to Notes/<type>/<kebab-case-title>.md and confirm.

Tool guidance

• New content (URL captures, user-provided text): Use Write to create the file.
• Existing file being re-categorized: Use Edit for frontmatter changes, Bash mv to relocate.
