Use when the user asks a question about their vault, wants to explore a topic across notes, or says "research", "find out", "what do I know about", or "summarize my notes on". Chains semantic search, note reading, and link traversal for deep vault research.
Research a topic across the user's Obsidian vault using a multi-pass approach.
Semantic Discovery — Call obsidian_rag_query with the user's question (limit 5-10). This surfaces the most relevant chunks across the vault.
Targeted Reading — For each high-relevance result, call obsidian_read_note to get the full context. Skim for the most pertinent sections.
Link Traversal — Check obsidian_get_links on the most relevant notes to find connected knowledge. Read promising linked notes.
Synthesis — Combine findings into a clear answer with citations:
[[Note Name]]The user's query follows the skill invocation. Example: /research what do I know about authentication patterns
/index first
