Prerequisites

• This skill requires the johnnydecimal skill for JD system context.
• This skill finds things and writes notes. It moves no files itself. The JD CLI moves them, under Moving in and Filing below. Without the CLI, tell the user where each file belongs and let them move it.

The jd MCP server

Johnny.Decimal knowledge comes from the jd MCP server, not from memory. The vault is the user's own overlay on it.

Call get_account first. It says which systems the account owns and whether it has Pro, so you know which tools will answer. The tool descriptions say what each tool does. Do not keep a second copy of them here.

Which source answers:

• Their notes, their files, their business. Answer from the vault. Do not go to the MCP for facts about the user's own content.
• How Johnny.Decimal itself works. Call the documentation tools. Do not answer JD concept questions from memory.
• The active ID. Read both, in the order below.

If the server is not connected, say so once, then continue vault-only. Say what is lost: without it you are answering Johnny.Decimal questions from memory, and that is where wrong answers come from. Connect with:
