Route Notes

Route notes from inbox to appropriate destinations in your vault.

Step 1: Load Configuration

Load configuration directly - don't preflight-check sb availability first:

npx @techpickles/sb config default
npx @techpickles/sb config vaults

If this fails, run ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/diagnose-sb.sh for a one-shot diagnosis rather than re-deriving the checks by hand.

If no vault configured:

Second brain not configured. Run /second-brain:setup first.

Use the symlink path ~/.claude/vaults/{name} to Read vault files (e.g., ~/.claude/vaults/primary/CLAUDE.md).

Load skill references:

• second-brain:obsidian for tool mechanics
• references/routing.md for routing algorithm
• references/sb-cli.md for sb command reference
• references/routing-memory.md for routing correction format

Step 2: Identify Notes to Route

If argument is a filename: Look for that file in inbox. If not found, search vault.

If argument is "all": List all files in inbox for batch routing.

If no argument: List inbox contents and let user select:

npx @techpickles/sb inbox list

Example output:

{
  "notes": [
    {
      "filename": "202601251430 redis-session-caching.md",
      "timestamp": "202601251430",
      "title": "redis-session-caching"
    },
    {
      "filename": "202601251445 claude-code-hooks.md",
      "timestamp": "202601251445",
      "title": "claude-code-hooks"
    }
  ]
}

Present to user:

Notes in inbox:
1. 202601251430 redis-session-caching.md
2. 202601251445 claude-code-hooks.md
3. 202601251500 debugging-approach.md

Which note(s) would you like to route?

Use AskUserQuestion with multi-select to let user choose.

Step 3: Discover Vault Structure

npx @techpickles/sb vault structure

Example output:

{
  "areas": [
    "Areas/AI/agentic development",
    "Areas/tool sharpening"
  ],
  "resources": [
    "Resources/software engineering",
    "Resources/mental models"
  ],
  "projects": [
    "Projects/pickletown",
    "Projects/claude-plugins"
  ]
}
