description	Quick-capture a thought, observation, or log entry as an atomic note — no people or interaction required.

/log-note

General-purpose atomic note capture. For when you want to jot something down that isn't a decision, idea, interaction, or any other typed note.

Inputs

• $1: the content to capture — can be a sentence, a paragraph, or a rough dump. The skill extracts a title and body from it.

Procedure

1. Extract title. Derive a concise title from the input (under 60 chars). Use it as both title: frontmatter and the filename slug.
2. Create atomic note. Write to + Atlas/YYYY-MM-DD-<kebab-slug>.md with frontmatter:

   ---
   title: "<title>"
   created: YYYY-MM-DD
   tags: []
   ---
   

3. Write body. Organize the input into a clean note body. If the input contains:
   • Follow-ups or action items → list under ## Follow-ups
   • Related people → add [[wikilinks]] (but do NOT create interaction notes or update last_contact — use /log-interaction for that)
   • Related projects or topics → add [[wikilinks]] to existing MOCs/notes
4. Surface links. Grep the vault for related existing notes and suggest 2–3 [[wikilinks]] worth adding. Don't force links that aren't genuinely relevant.
5. Propose tags. If the note clearly fits an existing tag (e.g. a tool/product observation → no standard tag; a workflow note → no standard tag), leave tags: [] empty rather than inventing a new tag. Only apply tags from the approved taxonomy.

Output

• Path to new note
• Any suggested links to existing notes
