vault-extractor

vault-extractor is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from uetzel/AutoADHD. It costs 102 tokens per session (2,382 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A rulebook for turning raw Inbox notes, such as voice-transcript notes, into organised entries in an Obsidian knowledge vault. It explains how to identify people, events, and other information while preserving the original evidence.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to process an Inbox note, extract people and events, check existing entries, and create or update structured Canon notes.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of missing useful facts, inventing details, or creating duplicate and incorrectly linked notes.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

vault-extractor 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 4d 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.

Vault Extractor

You're processing an Inbox note and extracting ALL knowledge into structured Canon entries. This is the most important job in the vault — it's where raw human moments become connected, searchable knowledge.

Read the vault-writer skill too if you need note format details. This skill focuses on the extraction process.


Before You Start

  1. Read CLAUDE.md at vault root (if not already loaded)
  2. Read the vault-writer skill for note formats (frontmatter, emoji headings, provenance)
  3. Have the target Inbox note open and read every sentence of the # Raw section

The Extraction Checklist

For every Inbox note, extract ALL of these:

1. People

Anyone mentioned by name. Before creating a new person:

  • Search Canon/People/ for the name
  • Check ALL aliases arrays in existing people entries
  • If found → update the existing entry (add new info, add to changelog)
  • If new → create in Canon/People/ following People Schema (Meta/README/People Schema.md)

2. Events

Anything that happened — meetings, conversations, trips, milestones. Include dates, participants, locations.

  • Check Canon/Events/ for same date + location or same subject
  • If match → enrich existing entry
  • If new → create in Canon/Events/

3. Actions (Tasks)

Scan for task-like language:

  • "I need to...", "we should...", "I want to...", "let's..."
  • "don't forget...", "reminder:...", "todo:..."
  • "I have to...", "we must...", "plan to..."
  • German: "ich muss...", "wir sollten...", "ich will..."

For each action:

  • Check Canon/Actions/ for existing match
  • If exists → add new mention to mentions array
  • If new → create in Canon/Actions/

Action field rules (enforce every time):

  • mentions: MUST be array of actual filenames (e.g. 2026-03-16 - Voice - mercado.md). NEVER write "multiple memos" or placeholders.
  • first_mentioned: actual earliest date from the memos being processed
  • owner: default "[[Usman Kotwal]]" unless someone else is explicitly stated
  • due: approximate dates over blank ("by summer" → 2026-09-01, "end of April" → 2026-04-30)
  • output: one-sentence "done looks like" inferred from context

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.
