Examples

Use these examples when you want to copy a working pattern instead of starting from a blank choice. Every workflow below ships as a package: on its page, check what the Get this workflow card says it needs, click Copy package, import it in Obsidian, and follow After importing under How to install in the card. See Install an example from the docs for the full walkthrough.

Pick by goal

Capture information faster

Start with Capture to Your Daily Note for daily-note captures. Use Capture to Inbox with GPS when the line should also store device coordinates. Use Brain dump to type several entries in a row without reopening the Capture. Move to Canvas Capture when your target is a Canvas card instead of a Markdown note.

Create structured notes

Start with Add an Inbox Item for a small template. Try meeting notes and project updates to create a dated note or add a section, then start typing where you put the cursor marker. Use Create an MOC Note with a Link Dashboard when you want a generated note to include a live Base dashboard.

Run scripted workflows

Start with Book Finder to see the common macro pattern: prompt for input, call a script, write a note, and open the result.
