wiki-ingest: Source Ingestion

Read the source. Write the wiki. Cross-reference everything. A single source typically touches 8-15 wiki pages.

Syntax standard: Write all Obsidian Markdown using proper Obsidian Flavored Markdown. Wikilinks as [[Note Name]], callouts as > [!type] Title, embeds as ![[file]], properties as YAML frontmatter. If the kepano/obsidian-skills plugin is installed, prefer its canonical obsidian-markdown skill for Obsidian syntax reference. Otherwise, follow the guidance in this skill.

Transport (v1.7+)

Before mutating any vault file, consult .vault-meta/transport.json (auto-created by bash scripts/detect-transport.sh). Use the preferred transport per the fallback chain:

• cli — obsidian-cli write "$VAULT" "$NOTE" < content.md (or append, property:set); see skills/wiki-cli/SKILL.md
• mcp-obsidian / mcpvault — mcp__obsidian-vault__write_note and friends; see skills/wiki/references/mcp-setup.md
• filesystem — Claude's Write/Edit tools with absolute vault-rooted paths (final floor; always works)
