Steps

1. Structure the Idea

Based on the conversation, create a structured markdown file:

# [Descriptive Title]

## Summary
[2-3 sentences capturing the core idea]

## Key Insights
- [Key point 1]
- [Key point 2]
- [Add more as needed]

## Action Items
- [ ] [Task 1]
- [ ] [Task 2]
- [Add more or remove section if none]

## Connections
- Related to: [topics]
- Source: [if applicable]

2. Choose the Folder

Folder	Use When
knowledge-base/ideas/	Raw thoughts, brainstorms, "what if"
knowledge-base/insights/	Learnings, wisdom, mental models
knowledge-base/actions/	Tasks, plans, goals, decisions

3. Create Filename

Format: YYYY-MM-DD-descriptive-slug.md

Example: 2026-01-22-morning-routine-focus.md

4. Git Workflow (Fully Automatic)

Execute these commands in sequence:

# Ensure on main and up to date
git checkout main
git pull origin main

# Create branch for this idea
git checkout -b idea/[slug]

# Create the file in the appropriate folder
# (write file content)

# Stage and commit
git add knowledge-base/[folder]/[filename]
git commit -m "Add: [brief topic description]"

# Push the branch
git push -u origin idea/[slug]

# Create PR, merge, and cleanup (automatic!)
gh pr create --title "Add: [brief topic]" --body "Auto-captured idea" --base main
gh pr merge --merge --delete-branch

# Return to main
git checkout main
git pull origin main

5. Confirm to User

After completing, confirm:

• File saved: knowledge-base/[folder]/[filename]
• Automatically merged to main branch
• Ready to capture next idea

Example

User says: "Morning routines reduce decision fatigue because you don't have to think about what to do first thing"

Result:

• File: knowledge-base/insights/2026-01-22-morning-routines-decision-fatigue.md
• Branch created, PR merged, cleanup complete
• Idea now in main branch
