Skill: tentacle-obsidian-init

Purpose

Sets up a high-performance, AI-friendly Obsidian vault architecture tailored for text and image content creators. It combines a PARA-inspired structure (Inbox, Notes, Projects, Resources, Areas) with strict AI Agent guardrails (AGENTS.md).

This ensures any new vault is immediately ready for both human content creation and safe AI assistant operations.

Vault Scaffolding Initialization

To initialize or restructure the vault, execute the scaffolding script.

The script will copy all predefined directories, markdown templates, and guardrail rules perfectly into the root vault directory.

Execution Command

uv run .agents/skills/tentacle-obsidian-init/scripts/init_vault.py

Note: The script uses only standard libraries and safely merges layers via shutil.copytree(dirs_exist_ok=True). It does not delete existing user files.

Post-Initialization Checklist

After the script runs, kindly remind the user to complete these manual configurations inside Obsidian settings:

• Attachment settings: Set Default location for new attachments to the Assets/ folder.
• Template settings (if Core Templates plugin is used): Set Template folder location to the Templates/ folder.
