Obsidian serves as a long‑term thinking vault built from plain Markdown files: a home note links to an inbox and a daily note, a DataView.js script shows five random files, and a separate DataView query lists notes with a contacted on property to track outreach (currently two people recorded). People notes start with files prefixed "ad " for quick lookup. Built‑in graph visualizes local/global links, Mermaid renders inline, and PlantUML needs a server to render.
