What is daily-session?

An Obsidian command for starting a daily thinking or brainstorming session. Obsidian is a note-taking app; the command can read daily notes and previous handoffs, and in full mode creates a transcript and updates the daily note.

Use it for morning planning, focused work sessions, quick context checks, or preparing notes for an end-of-day handoff.

It gathers relevant notes and preserves a record of the session, while light mode avoids creating extra files for quick check-ins.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00000	$0.01521
Opus 5.5	$0.00000	$0.00608
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00000	$0.00304
Haiku 4.5	$0.00000	$0.00152

Security

Grade A, and why

daily-session scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 212 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Start a daily thinking/brainstorm session in the Obsidian vault.

Usage

/daily-session          # Full mode (default) - creates transcript, updates daily note
/daily-session --light  # Light mode - context only, no file creation

Modes

Default (Full Mode)

Creates a transcript file, adds entry to daily note, full archival workflow. Use this for:

Morning session starts
Days with planned focused work
When you want full documentation

Light Mode (`--light`)

Reads context but skips file creation. Use this for:

Late starts (afternoon/evening)
Low-energy days
Quick check-ins
When you'll run /end-day shortly after

Light mode still:

Reads today's daily note
Finds and reads previous handoff
Scans recent exports
Greets with full context

Light mode skips:

Creating transcript file
Adding session entry to daily note

What This Command Does (Full Mode)

Read today's daily note (journals/YYYY-MM-DD.md):
- Extract mood from "Mood Check"
- Extract focus items from "Today's Focus"
- Note key reflections or context from their writing
- Note any existing Claude Sessions entries
Find and read the most recent handoff (handles gaps gracefully):
- Search for transcripts: ai-chats/transcripts/*/daily-session-*.md
- Sort by date descending, exclude today
- Read the most recent one's "Session Handoff" section
- Note how many days ago the last session was (for context)
- If no previous transcript exists: proceed without handoff context
- If handoff section is incomplete: use what's available, note the gap
Scan recent Claude Code exports (cross-session context):
- Search for summary files: ai-chats/claude-code/**/*-summary.md
- Exclude: ai-chats/claude-code/seeds/ (daily session exports are redundant with handoff)
- Filter to files modified since the last daily session date
- For each summary found:
  - Parse YAML frontmatter (project, tags, duration, files_touched)
  - Extract Overview section (1-2 sentence summary)
  - Extract Next Steps / Open items
- Group summaries by project for the transcript
- If no exports found: note this but proceed (not all work generates exports)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
