What it does

Single write point for the vault. Centralizes entity detection, textual matching, entity creation/update, and bidirectional linking. Accepts structured input (list of entities), free-form input (text, meeting notes, session context), or graphify output (graph.json + obsidian markdown from /graphify pipeline). Use when: "bedrock preserve", "bedrock-preserve", "save to vault", "record in vault", "/bedrock:preserve", or when another skill (e.g., /bedrock:teach) needs to persist entities in the vault.

Plugin Paths

Entity definitions and templates are in the plugin directory, not in the vault root. Use the "Base directory for this skill" provided at invocation to resolve paths:

  • Entity definitions: <base_dir>/../../entities/
  • Templates: <base_dir>/../../templates/{type}/_template.md
  • Plugin CLAUDE.md: <base_dir>/../../CLAUDE.md (already injected automatically into context)

Where <base_dir> is the path provided in "Base directory for this skill".


Vault Resolution

Resolve which vault to operate on. This skill can be invoked from any directory.

Step 1, Parse --vault flag: Check if the input arguments include --vault <name>. If found, extract the vault name and remove it from the arguments before further parsing.

Step 2, Resolve vault path:

  1. If --vault <name> was provided: Read the vault registry at <base_dir>/../../vaults.json. Find the entry matching the name. If not found: error, "Vault <name> is not registered. Run /bedrock:vaults to see available vaults." If found: set VAULT_PATH to the entry's path value.

  2. If no --vault flag, CWD detection: Read <base_dir>/../../vaults.json. Check if the current working directory is inside any registered vault path (CWD starts with a registered vault's absolute path). If multiple match, use the longest path (most specific). If found: set VAULT_PATH to the matching vault's path.

  3. If CWD detection fails, default vault: From the registry, find the vault with "default": true. If found: set VAULT_PATH to the default vault's path.

  4. If no resolution: Error, "No vault resolved. Available vaults:" followed by the registry listing. "Use --vault <name> to specify, or run /bedrock:setup to register a vault."
