Mischief Managed - Session Summary to Obsidian

Write a compact session note into an Obsidian vault so the work is searchable and resumable later. This is a summary, not a full transcript. For transcript-style capture in Pi, use the built-in /export command or pi --export.

Obsidian Vault Location

Use this priority order:

1. If the user gives a vault path or note path, use it.
2. If OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH is set, write to $OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH/Agent-Sessions/.
3. If ~/Obsidian exists, write to ~/Obsidian/Agent-Sessions/.
4. Otherwise ask once for the Obsidian vault path before writing.

Do not silently write outside an Obsidian vault unless the user explicitly asks.

Filename:

{YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM}-{slug}.md

Use a 2-4 word kebab-case slug based on the completed work.

Metadata

Run one shell command to collect context:

git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD 2>/dev/null || echo ""; basename "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null)" 2>/dev/null || echo ""; date +%Y-%m-%d-%H%M; date +"%b %d, %Y"; pwd; git remote get-url origin 2>/dev/null || echo ""

Map output to:

• BRANCH
• REPO
• DATETIME
• PRETTY_DATE
• DIR
• REPO_URL

If the git values are blank, omit them from frontmatter.
