I’ve been using Obsidian lately for taking notes and I’m certain I’ll be saying more about that later. I’m a convert. It’s what I’ve wanted for ages: a pretty UI that sits above a folder full of Markdown files. This makes it trivially easy to share data between programs, and to manipulate Obsidian’s “vault” by directly tweaking those files with external programs.

In that spirit, I’ve released the scripts I use to automate my own workflows as the Glass Knife project. They’re not polished yet but I use them daily, and I’ll keep the project updated as I tweak them for my own use.
