Obsidian Literature Workflow

This skill owns the project literature workflow.

Main flow

Sources/Papers/ -> Knowledge/ -> Writing/ -> Maps/literature.canvas

Default outputs

Sources/Papers/{paper-slug}.md

Knowledge/Literature Overview.md

Knowledge/Method Taxonomy.md

Knowledge/Research Gaps.md

Knowledge/Claim Map.md

Writing/related-work-draft.md only after promoted claims pass the evidence gate

Writing/comparison-matrix.md only after promoted claims pass the evidence gate

Maps/literature.canvas

Rules

paper notes stay under Sources/Papers/

literature synthesis does not live inside source notes

every synthesis note must link its supporting source notes

every research gap must carry evidence

every promoted claim must carry an Evidence Record ID, source type, claim strength, allowed wording, and forbidden stronger wording when it may flow into writing or rebuttal

weak paper notes, abstract-only pages, and webpage placeholders may update coverage or To-Read, but they cannot support Knowledge or Writing conclusions

default graph output is Maps/literature.canvas

do not generate extra canvases unless explicitly requested
