Obsidian Synthesis Map
This is a legacy compatibility helper.
Despite the name, the current default workflow focuses on synthesis notes, not Bases or Canvas artifacts.
Default outputs
Writing/synthesis notes- project summaries tied to
Knowledge/,Papers/,Experiments/, andResults/ - comparison notes that help writing, planning, or result interpretation
Guidelines
- Use
obsidian-project-memoryas the main workflow authority. - Use
$obsidian-markdownfor note quality. - Keep synthesis notes anchored to real papers, experiments, results, and project questions via wikilinks.
- Prefer one durable synthesis note per purpose instead of many overlapping summaries.
- If the user explicitly asks for
.baseor.canvasartifacts, treat them as optional add-ons, not default outputs.
Default stance
Do not generate:
Views/*.baseMaps/*.canvas
unless the user explicitly asks for those artifacts.
