Part of Build and Maintain Your Personal Knowledge System
Productivity Blueprint
Safety checkedBuild Your Second Brain in Obsidian
A unified skill that runs GTD task management, Zettelkasten note-taking, and daily planning through natural conversation with Claude.
What problem does this solve?
Manages the entire capture, clarify, organize, review, and plan cycle of Getting Things Done by handling the methodology overhead while you focus on the work. It captures stray thoughts without friction, processes them into actionable tasks or knowledge, plans your day based on your energy and goals, and reviews progress each evening.
How does it work?
Talk to Claude naturally throughout your day. Use 'Capture:' triggers to log thoughts instantly, 'Plan my day' each morning to get a prioritized list based on your projects and energy level, 'Process my inbox' 3x per week to clarify and route captures to the right folders, and 'Daily closeout' each evening to reflect and prep tomorrow. Claude reads your Obsidian vault files, remembers your vault path and personal context from Memory, and maintains a PARA-organized folder structure (Projects, Areas, Resources, Archives) plus Zettelkasten permanent notes. All your notes stay in plain Markdown files you own.

What's required to run this?
Configuration is stored in Claude Memory for cross-session persistence because Claude Desktop skills run sandboxed. Requires the Filesystem extension for Claude Desktop to read and write files in your vault. Claude Code has native file system access. Vault structure uses numbered prefixes (00-, 01-, etc.) for consistent sorting and follows PARA methodology (Projects, Areas, Resources, Archives) with separate folders for Daily Plans, Permanent Notes, and Templates.
Key Features
Capture Workflow
Record thoughts with a single 'Capture: [idea]' or 'Remember: [task]' — appends timestamped to today's inbox instantly without categorization.
Daily Planning
Say 'Plan my day' and Claude scans your projects, asks about your energy and time, then generates a must-do, should-do, and quick-wins list.
Inbox Processing
Say 'Process my inbox' to clarify vague captures, route actionable items to Projects or Areas, and convert knowledge to Permanent Notes.
Daily Closeout
Say 'Daily closeout' to mark progress on today's tasks, capture learnings, and draft tomorrow's plan.
Excalidraw Diagrams
Create flowcharts, mind maps, and system diagrams in Obsidian Excalidraw format by saying 'draw a flowchart' or 'visualize this concept'.
