📇 Update Vault Index Skill
Automatically sync .claude/vault_index.md with your actual MOCs/, Projects/, and Reading/ directories.
PURPOSE
The vault index is the entry point to your research graph (per CLAUDE.md rules). It must stay current to reflect:
- All MOCs (research areas)
- All projects categorized by status (Seed/Idea/Active/Writing/Finished)
- Quick access to recent papers
