Obi — Obsidian Notes Manager

General-purpose note management for Adit's Obsidian vault. Create, organize, search, and update notes in any folder structure. Not limited to any specific category — use it for work notes, ideas, code snippets, meeting notes, TODOs, research, and everything else.

Called "Obi" for short (like "obi-wan" but for your notes).

Vault Locations (TWO VAULTS)

There are two separate Obsidian vaults:

Vault 1: CPNS-2026 (Dedicated — DO NOT TOUCH)

/Users/adityahimawan/Documents/Obsidian/CPNS-2026/
├── 01-TWK/       (9 files: Pancasila, UUD, Bhinneka, NKRI, Sejarah, Tata Negara, Bahasa, Geografi, Hukum)
├── 02-TIU/       (7 files: Silogisme, Analitik, Numerik, Deret, Soal Cerita, Figural, Analogi)
├── 03-TKP/       (6 files: Pelayanan, Profesionalisme, Anti-Radikalisme, Manajemen Diri, Kerjasama, Sosial Kultural)
├── 04-Mock-Exams/
├── 05-Flashcards/
├── 06-Study-Plan/
└── MOC-CPNS.md

This vault is COMPLETE and should NOT be modified. It's synced via Syncthing to Android.

Vault 2: Notes (Generic — USE THIS)

/Users/adityahimawan/Documents/Obsidian/Notes/
├── Work/         ← Work-related notes, configs, projects
├── Dev/          ← Code snippets, tech docs, patterns
├── Meeting/      ← Meeting notes
├── Personal/     ← Personal notes, ideas, travel, health
├── Tasks/        ← TODOs, checklists, goals
├── Finance/      ← Stocks, trading, budget
├── Archive/      ← Old/completed notes
├── Inbox/        ← Quick capture (unsorted)
└── MOC-Notes.md  ← Master index

When using obi, always create notes in the Notes vault, not in CPNS-2026 (unless user explicitly asks to add CPNS material).

How It Works

When Adit says something like:

• "obi [content]" → Create a new note from that text
• "catat di obsidian [folder] → [title] → [content]" → Create in specific folder
• "add notes work → email setup" → Create note in Notes/Work folder
• "simpan ini ke work/snippets" → Create in Notes/Work subfolder

Commands

1. Quick Note (Auto-Organize)

User: "obi remember to backup database before migration"
→ Create file in appropriate folder under ~/Documents/Obsidian/Notes/ based on content analysis

2. Specific Folder Note

User: "add note to work → dummy email about [e-mail] config"
→ Create: ~/Documents/Obsidian/Notes/Work/dummy-email.md

3. Nested Folder Note

User: "obi save this to projects/gadjian → react query patterns"
→ Create: ~/Documents/Obsidian/Notes/Projects/gadjian/react-query-patterns.md

4. Meeting Notes

User: "obi meeting notes daily standup 7 Apr"
→ Create: ~/Documents/Obsidian/Notes/Meeting/daily-standup-2026-04-07.md

Note Format

All notes follow this consistent frontmatter:

---
title: "{{title}}"
type: note
created: "{{date}}"
tags: [{{tags}}]
folder: "{{folder}}"
---

# {{Title}}

{{content}}

## Notes
- Additional context if needed

## Related
- [[Related Note 1]]
- [[Related Note 2]]

Auto-Organization Rules

If user doesn't specify a folder, analyze content and auto-place under ~/Documents/Obsidian/Notes/:

Content Type	Target Folder
Email config/setup/work	Work/
Code snippets, dev patterns	Dev/ or Work/dev/
Meeting notes, standups	Meeting/
Personal ideas, random thoughts	Personal/
TODO, checklists	Tasks/
Finance, stocks, trading	Finance/
Travel, places	Personal/travel/
Health, fitness	Personal/health/

Usage Patterns

From Clipboard

User says: "obi paste dari clipboard" → Read clipboard content, create note with auto-generated title

From Text

User says: "obi catat ide: pake react query buat data fetching di gadjian" → Create note with title "React Query - Data Fetching Gadjian" in Dev/ folder

Quick Capture

User says: "obi ingat beli susu besok" → Create note in Personal/ with TODO format

Template Notes

User says: "obi template meeting notes" → Create note with meeting notes template

Pitfalls

• NEVER modify CPNS-2026 vault — it's separate, complete, and synced. Only use the Notes vault unless explicitly asked.
• Don't create duplicate notes — check if file exists first by searching similar titles
• Use kebab-case for filenames — meeting-notes-2026-04-07.md, not Meeting Notes.md
• Create parent folders if they don't exist — mkdir -p
• Always add frontmatter — this makes notes searchable and filterable in Obsidian
• Cross-link related notes — use [[wikilinks]] to connect related content
• Don't overwrite — if note exists, ask user before overwriting or append to existing
• Both vaults sync via Syncthing — changes on Mac will appear on Android automatically

Examples

Example 1: Simple note

User: "obi email konfigurasi [e-mail] untuk Hermes" → File: ~/Documents/Obsidian/Notes/Work/email-config-adityahimaone.md → Content with frontmatter, tags: [work, email, config]

Example 2: Code snippet

User: "obi simpan ke dev → nextjs prisma setup" → File: ~/Documents/Obsidian/Notes/Dev/nextjs-prisma-setup.md → Content with code blocks, tags: [dev, nextjs, prisma]

Example 3: Quick reminder

User: "obi ingat meeting jam 3 besok" → File: ~/Documents/Obsidian/Notes/Tasks/meeting-reminder-2026-04-08.md → Content as TODO, tags: [tasks, reminder, meeting]

Example 4: Meeting notes

User: "obi meeting notes sprint planning 7 april" → File: ~/Documents/Obsidian/Notes/Meeting/sprint-planning-2026-04-07.md → Content with meeting template, tags: [meeting, sprint]

Example 5: Stock analysis note

User: "obi catat saham ARCI orderbook analysis dari tadi" → File: ~/Documents/Obsidian/Notes/Finance/arci-orderbook-analysis-2026-04-07.md → Content with analysis, tags: [finance, stock, arci, analysis]
