`prompts/chiron.txt` | Updated skill routing table, added Obsidian integration | + +## Key Architectural Decisions + +### 1. Obsidian-First Design + +**Decision:** Use Obsidian Tasks plugin format instead of Anytype knowledge graphs + +**Reasoning:** +- Chiron documentation explicitly chose Obsidian over Anytype +- Obsidian provides direct file access for Opencode (no MCP overhead) +- Markdown files are Git-friendly and portable + +**Impact:** +- `task-management` skill completely rewritten for Obsidian Tasks format +- All Chiron skills work with Markdown files at `~/CODEX/` +- Task format: `- [ ] Task #tag ⏫ 📅 YYYY-MM-DD` + +### 2. Skill Boundary Design + +**Decision:** Create 7 focused Chiron skills with clear responsibilities + +**Skill Mapping:** + +| Skill | Core Responsibility | Delegates To | +|-------|-------------------|--------------| +| `chiron-core` | PARA methodology, mentorship, prioritization | All other Chiron skills | +| `obsidian-management` | File operations, templates, search | All skills | +| `daily-routines` | Morning/Evening/Weekly workflows | task-management, obsidian-management | +| `quick-capture` | Inbox capture (tasks, notes, meetings, learnings) | obsidian-management, task-management | +| `meeting-notes` | Meeting note creation, action extraction | task-management, obsidian-management | +| `project-structures` | Project lifecycle (create, review, archive) | obsidian-management, chiron-core | +| `n8n-automation` | n8n workflow design, webhook setup | All skills (automation triggers) | + +### 3. Preserved Existing Investments + +**Kept unchanged:** +- `basecamp` - MCP-based integration +- `communications` - Email management +- `calendar-scheduling` - Time blocking (stub) +- `research` - Investigation workflows +- `brainstorming` - Ideation +- `reflection` - Conversation analysis +- `mem0-memory` - Persistent memory + +**Reasoning:** These skills complement Chiron rather than conflict with it. + +### 4. Progressive Disclosure Implementation + +**Design principle:** Keep SKILL.md lean, move details to references/ + +**Examples:** +- `chiron-core/SKILL.md` (~300 lines) - Core workflows only +- `chiron-core/references/` (~900 lines) - PARA guide, priority matrix, reflection questions +- `daily-routines/SKILL.md` (~400 lines) - Workflows only +- References loaded only when needed + +### 5. Prompt Engineering Patterns Applied + +**Techniques used:** + +1. **Few-Shot Learning** - Concrete examples for each workflow +2. **Instruction Hierarchy** - System → Workflow → Steps → Examples +3. **Error Recovery** - Handle edge cases (file not found, duplicate tasks) +4. **Output Format Specifications** - Explicit markdown structures for consistency +5. **Delegation Rules** - Clear boundaries for skill-to-skill routing + +## Integration Points + +### Skill Routing in chiron.txt + +Updated to route to new skills: + +``` +| Intent Pattern | Skill | Examples | +|----------------|-------|----------| +| PARA methodology, prioritization principles, productivity guidance | `chiron-core` | "How should I organize X?", "Is this a project or area?" | +| Tasks (Obsidian Tasks format), search tasks, prioritize work | `task-management` | "Find all tasks", "Add task: X" | +| Obsidian file operations, create/edit notes, use templates | `obsidian-management` | "Create note: X", "Use meeting template" | +| Daily workflows: morning planning, evening reflection, weekly review | `daily-routines` | "Morning planning", "Evening review", "Weekly review" | +| Quick capture to inbox, minimal friction capture | `quick-capture` | "Capture: X", "Quick note: Y" | +| Meeting notes, action items, meeting capture | `meeting-notes` | "Meeting: X", "Process meeting notes" | +| Project creation, lifecycle management, PARA projects | `project-structures` | "Create project: X", "Project status" | +| n8n automation, workflow design, cron setup | `n8n-automation` | "Setup n8n workflow", "Configure webhook" | +``` + +### Command Integration + +Each Opencode command (`/chiron-*`) is a lightweight wrapper that: +1.
