# JSON Canvas

Use for Obsidian .canvas artifacts. Read the [preserved format guidance](UPSTREAM.md)
for node, edge, group, and connection rules. Read
[examples](references/EXAMPLES.md) only when a concrete canvas pattern is useful.
Preserve unrelated nodes and edges when editing an existing canvas.

[Preservation provenance](references/provenance.json). Resolve original relative
paths from this skill directory; the preserved file stays here to retain its links.
