Agentic Zettelkasten Skill

A structured Zettelkasten protocol for Advanced Memory that produces high-quality atomic knowledge cards through deliberate retrieval, enrichment, and explicit link decisions.

This skill replaces ad-hoc note-taking. Every card written through this workflow is an atomic insight in your own words, with [[wikilinks]] embedded in sentences explaining the relationship — not a bare tag list.

Core Principles (Luhmann's Method)

1. Atomicity — One insight per card. If you have two ideas, write two cards.
2. Own words — Distill and rephrase. Copy-paste = no understanding (Feynman test).
3. Links in context — [[links]] must appear in sentences explaining the relationship. Good: "This contradicts [[jwt-migration]] — stateless tokens can't be revoked." Bad: "Related: [[jwt-migration]]"
4. Retrieve before write — Always search for existing cards first. Never create duplicates.
5. Preview before mutate — Show planned changes before writing anything.
