Smart Tagger & Cataloger Workflow

When the user uses the slash command /tag or asks to analyze and tag a note, follow these steps:

1. Understand Note Context: Read the target note and extract its core topics, entities, and context.
2. Identify Existing Vault Tags:
   • If you don't already know the user's tag taxonomy, search the vault targeting tags: or # to see what tags the user typically uses. Do not hallucinate tags if possible; prioritize existing ones.
3. Determine Best Tags: Select 3-5 fitting tags based on the note's content. Include broader category tags and specific thematic tags.
4. Determine Target Path: Check the note to see if it already has YAML frontmatter at the very top.
   • If NO frontmatter exists: Prepend standard frontmatter indicating the new tags.

     ---
     tags:
       - tag1
       - tag2
     ---
     

   • If frontmatter exists but NO tags: Insert the tags: field.
   • If tags: already exists: Append only the new, unique tags to the existing list.
5. Apply Frontmatter: Update the file content to inject or update the YAML frontmatter of the note.
6. Optional Categorization: If the note seems out of place, suggest moving it to a more appropriate folder based on its new tags.
7. Notify User: Show the user the tags that were added.
