Use Obsidian folders as Claude Code’s shared memory

Inbox, projects (each with CLAUDE.md), a memory tree for people/decisions/bugs, and docs Claude reads.

Prompt for your agent

Goal: Organise my vault so Claude Code uses it as memory.
Setup: agents used in source: Claude; tools/MCPs stated: Obsidian.
Steps:
1. Create /00-inbox, /01-projects (each with its own CLAUDE.md), /02-memory and /03-docs.
2. Keep people, decisions and bugs in the memory tree.
3. Put stack and rules in each project’s CLAUDE.md.
Rules: ask me before anything irreversible (sending, posting, paying, deleting); don’t invent data, results or tools I haven’t given you; tell me what you couldn’t verify.
