+description: This skill should be used when the user asks to start a new research project, import an existing code-plus-Markdown repository into Obsidian, or bind the current repository to a compact research knowledge base for future syncing.

+
+# Obsidian Project Bootstrap
+
+Bootstrap a project knowledge base for the current repository.
+
+## Role in the workflow
+
+This is a **supporting skill**.
+
+Use `obsidian-project-memory` as the main workflow authority. Use this skill only when a repository still needs its initial binding or rebuild.
+
+## When to use
+
+- The user says “start a new research project”.
+- The user has an existing repo with code plus Markdown and wants an Obsidian knowledge base generated automatically.
+- `obsidian-project-memory` detects a research-project candidate but no existing binding.
+
+## Required input
+
+Resolve the vault path from one of:
+1. explicit user input,
+2. `OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH`.
+
+## Procedure
+
+1. Identify the repository root.
+2. Run a preflight detect step first:
+   ```bash
+   python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/obsidian-project-memory/scripts/project_kb.py" detect --cwd "$PWD"
+   ```
+3. Only if the repo is unbound and should be imported, run bootstrap:
+   ```bash
+   python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/obsidian-project-memory/scripts/project_kb.py" bootstrap --cwd "$PWD" --vault-path "$OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH"
+   ```
+4. Verify that bootstrap created at least:
+   - `.claude/project-memory/registry.yaml`
+   - `.claude/project-memory/<project_id>.md`
+   - `Research/{project-slug}/00-Hub.md`
+   - `Research/{project-slug}/01-Plan.md`
+   - `Research/{project-slug}/Knowledge/Source-Inventory.md`
+   - `Research/{project-slug}/Knowledge/Codebase-Overview.md`
+5. If the imported project still lacks real background or experiment context, switch to an agent-first pass:
+   - read the most informative repo docs and code entry points,
+   - synthesize durable notes into `Knowledge/`, `Papers/`, `Experiments/`, `Results/`, or `Writing/`,
+   - avoid placeholder notes.
+6. Summarize the created knowledge base and the next recommended canonical notes to fill in.
+
+## Notes
+
+- The bootstrap process imports **structure and summaries**, not raw datasets, caches, checkpoints, or the whole code tree.
+- Ignore `.git`, `.venv`, `node_modules`, caches, checkpoints, binaries, and other heavy artifacts.
+- The default vault is compact: `00-Hub.md`, `01-Plan.md`, `Knowledge/`, `Papers/`, `Experiments/`, `Results/`, `Writing/`, `Daily/`, `Archive/`.
+- If `python3` is unavailable in the current shell, use the system Python interpreter that can run `project_kb.py` and say so explicitly.
