secondbrain-note（第二脑笔记）

Create Note

Capture knowledge, ideas, and thoughts with tagging support.

Prerequisites

Verify Notes entity is enabled:

1. Check for .claude/data/notes/meta.yaml (sharded) or .claude/data/notes/records.yaml (legacy)
2. If not found, suggest enabling notes via secondbrain-init or secondbrain-entity

Workflow

Step 1: Gather Information

Collect from user or conversation context:

1. Title — Brief, descriptive title
2. Content — Main content (can be from conversation)
3. Tags (optional) — Categorization tags

Step 2: Generate Note ID

Date-based ID format: YYYY-MM-DD-<title-slug>

Example: 2026-01-15-kubernetes-deployment-patterns

Step 3: Create Note Document

Filename: docs/notes/YYYY-MM-DD-<slug>.md

Frontmatter:

---
id: 2026-01-15-my-note
title: My Note Title
created: 2026-01-15
tags: [tag1, tag2]
status: active
---

Content:

# My Note Title

## Summary

Brief overview...

## Content

Main content here...

## References

- Links to related resources

## Related

- Links to related notes, ADRs, etc.

Step 4: Update Records

Add entry to the current month's shard .claude/data/notes/YYYY-MM.yaml:

- id: "2026-01-15-my-note"
  title: "My Note Title"
  created: 2026-01-15
  file: docs/notes/2026-01-15-my-note.md
  tags: [tag1, tag2]
  status: active

Ensure the current month is registered in .claude/data/notes/meta.yaml shards list.

Step 5: Sidebar Note

DO NOT manually add notes to VitePress sidebar.

Notes are automatically listed via the EntityTable component on docs/notes/index.md, which reads from .claude/data/notes/ shard files. No sidebar modification needed.

Step 6: Confirm Creation

## Note Created

**ID:** 2026-01-15-kubernetes-deployment-patterns
**Title:** Kubernetes Deployment Patterns
**Tags:** kubernetes, deployment, devops
**File:** docs/notes/2026-01-15-kubernetes-deployment-patterns.md

The note has been created and is ready for editing.

Tags

Tags help organize notes for discovery. Common patterns:

Status Values

• active — Current, relevant note
• archived — No longer current but preserved

Additional Resources

• references/note-formats.md — Detailed note templates and formatting patterns

Tips

1. Be specific — Titles should indicate content at a glance
2. Add context — Include why this is important, not just what
3. Link liberally — Connect to related notes and external resources
4. Tag consistently — Use established tags when possible
5. Review periodically — Archive notes that are no longer relevant
