Read README.md for repo structure and conventions.

Content capture rule

When creating a new file:

  1. Place it at root — not in any subfolder (exceptions: logs/, projects/)
  2. Filename: natural language, title case for proper nouns — Anna Karenina.md, wise society.md. No date, no type suffix, no author/year.
  3. Add created: YYYY-MM-DD in frontmatter. Nothing else required at capture time.
  4. Tags optional, add later: tags: [post] for finished essays, tags: [bookmark] for links/clippings, tags: [stub] for fragments.

Exceptions:

  • Daily log → logs/YYYY-MM-DD.md
  • Discrete project work → projects/<project-name>/
  • Large topic with many sub-files → its own folder (e.g. wto/), but root entry still exists

Do not create new type-based folders (blog/, notes/, ref/, etc.).

Content conventions

  • For new YouTube embeds, use ![[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID]].
  • Do not use legacy YouTube formats such as {{< youtube ... >}}, [embed]...[/embed], raw <iframe>, or <object> in newly created posts unless explicitly asked.
