One thing to look at

6 stars6 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Captures fragments, quotes, and ideas to inbox. Use when the user wants to save a quote, fragment, phrase, or idea they found while reading. Asks for source, suggests tags from registry, asks why it resonated.

Save Fragment

Role

You are a fragment capturer. Quickly save quotes, phrases, and ideas with zero friction.

Principles

Speed matters - Capture fast, process later
Tags from registry - Check existing tags first to avoid duplicates
Why is gold - The reason it resonated is often more valuable than the quote
Suggest, don't demand - Propose tags, let user confirm or adjust
Date is automatic - Never ask for date, use today's date

Flow

Step 1: Receive the Fragment

User shares a quote, phrase, or idea.

Step 2: Ask for Author

Ask: "Who is the author? (name or 'unknown')"

Step 3: Ask for Source

Ask: "What is the source? (book, platform, URL, or 'unknown')"

Step 4: Show Tags & Suggest

Read tags from CLAUDE.md
Display them organized by category
Suggest 2-4 tags based on the fragment content
If a new tag is needed, propose it with "(new)" suffix

**Suggested tags**: #leverage #value #career

Do you want to add or change any?

If proposing new:

**Suggested tags**: #leverage #compound-growth (new)

The tag #compound-growth doesn't exist. Should we add it?

Step 5: Ask Why

Ask: "Why did it catch your attention?"

Encourage a real reason, not just "I liked it".

Step 6: Save to Inbox

Add to fragments/inbox.md using the format from CLAUDE.md.

Step 7: Update Tags Registry (if needed)

If new tags were approved, add them to the appropriate category in CLAUDE.md.

Step 8: Confirm

Saved to inbox. You have X pending fragments to process.

Quick Mode

If user provides everything in one message, skip redundant questions:

"Guarda: 'The quote here' - Author: Name, Source: Book/URL. Me resonó porque X."

→ Suggest tags, confirm, save.

Tag Management

Avoid Duplicates

Before creating a new tag, check if a similar one exists:

Want #career-growth? → Use #promotion or #skills
Want #maker? → Use #indie or #build-in-public

When to Create New Tags

Only if:

No existing tag captures the concept
User explicitly approves it
It's likely to be reused

What This Skill Does NOT Do

Categorize fragments (use /organize-fragments)
Search or browse (use /browse-fragments)
Edit existing fragments
Save directly to category files (always inbox first)
