dailyCreates today's daily note in an Obsidian vault and guides morning, midday and evening routines for planning, task review and reflection.
The skill creates a daily note from a template, opening the existing note if one is already there. Template variables for the date, a formatted date, yesterday, tomorrow and the time are replaced, and the note is placed in a `Daily Notes/` folder and named by date. You start it with `/daily` or by asking for today's note or a routine.
The morning routine pulls incomplete tasks from yesterday and surfaces the week's one big thing, active project next-actions and the monthly priority from the vault's goal and project notes, then asks a few reflective prompts such as what your one thing is and what might get in the way. It also suggests linking new tasks to goals or projects. Midday check-ins and an evening shutdown are part of the same skill, which can read and edit files and manage tasks.
3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ef1e4da. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
ReadWriteEditGlobGrepTaskCreateTaskUpdateTaskListTaskGetFrom allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Daily Notes Workflow loads about 2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 658 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Run `npx skills add ballred/obsidian-claude-pkm --skill daily -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (vault-template/.claude/skills/daily in ballred/obsidian-claude-pkm) into .claude/skills/daily in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add ballred/obsidian-claude-pkm --skill daily -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (vault-template/.claude/skills/daily in ballred/obsidian-claude-pkm) into .agents/skills/daily in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add ballred/obsidian-claude-pkm --skill daily -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/daily, .gemini/skills/daily, .github/skills/daily and .opencode/skills/daily in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Daily Notes Workflow is instructions for the agent only. Our summary lists: An Obsidian vault with a daily note template and a `Daily Notes/` folder. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, TaskCreate, TaskUpdate, TaskList, TaskGet.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Daily Notes Workflow is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 7.9k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
