# All notes
find "$VAULT" -name "*.md" -type f
# In a specific folder
ls "$VAULT/Subfolder/"
Search
VAULT="${OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH:-$HOME/Documents/Obsidian Vault}"
# By filename
find "$VAULT" -name "*.md" -iname "*keyword*"
# By content
grep -rli "keyword" "$VAULT" --include="*.md"

one-three-one-rule
Structured decision-making framework for technical proposals and trade-off analysis. When the user faces a choice between multiple approaches (architecture decisions, tool selection, refactoring strategies, migration paths), this skill produces a 1-3-1 format: one clear problem statement, three distinct options with pros/cons, and one concrete recommendation with definition of done and implementation plan. Use when the user asks for a "1-3-1", says "give me options", or needs help choosing between competing approaches.
