- Enrich a single note with topic tags, source attribution, and links to related notes. Use when asked to enrich, tag, or add metadata to a note.
# Enrich note
Enrich one note — the one given by path, or the note in context — with metadata.
If the frontmatter already has `enrichedAt`, the note is done — skip it.
Do the three steps below, then stamp `enrichedAt` with the current ISO timestamp.
## 1. Tags
Read the tag registry at the vault root (`tags.md`) first. If it doesn't exist yet, create it by copying the starter seed from [references/tags.md](references/tags.md). The registry lives in the vault — not this skill — so your tags persist and sync no matter where the skill runs from.
Reuse an existing tag whenever one fits. Be **reluctant** to add new tags. Tags should span many notes, not a couple. Only coin a new tag when nothing matches, and when you do, append it to the registry with a one-line description so the next note can reuse it.
Write tags as a frontmatter array of kebab-case topics: `tags: [secret-of-our-success, anthropology]`. Capture the source medium as a tag too when there is one (`book`, `podcast`, `video`, `article`). Leave lifecycle tags like `voice-transcription` alone — they aren't topics.
## 2. Source
If the note has a real origin — a URL, book, podcast, video, or person — record it in frontmatter as a flat `source:` line, plus a `url:` line if you can find one (web research allowed). Most personal notes (lists, reflections, dev logs) have no source; skip it then rather than inventing one.
## 3. Related notes
Find notes elsewhere in the vault that are genuinely related. Use your judgment — grep frontmatter `tags:`, search for key terms, look around.
Add the strong matches to a trailing `## Related` section as wikilinks with readable aliases:
```md
## Related
- [[raw/2026-01-05-the-secret-of-our-success-alloparenting-917xzs8m.md|Alloparenting]]
```
Link **only to notes that exist** — never invent a target.
If nothing is clearly related, **omit the section.**
