Save demonstrated learning, corrected misconceptions, and useful examples from a session as a durable Obsidian TIL note. Use when a learning workflow hands off a session or the user asks to save what they learned.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# TIL capture

Create a note future-you can understand without the conversation. Invoke `vault` for vault conventions and `obsidian-cli` for safe read, create, append, and verification operations.

## 1. Establish the topic

Use `$ARGUMENTS` when present. Otherwise infer from the conversation and current project, then state the inferred topic before writing.

Complete when the title describes the learned concept rather than only the repository name.

## 2. Inspect today's note

Target `3 - Resources/TIL/til-YYYY-MM-DD.md` unless the vault skill identifies a newer convention. Read the existing note before deciding between creation and append.

For an existing note, count its `## Session N` headings and use the next integer. Preserve its frontmatter and top-level title.

Complete when the operation is classified as new note or append and the destination plus next session number are known.

## 3. Extract evidence

Include only conversation-backed material:

- what the learner can now explain or apply
- corrected misconceptions and the evidence that corrected them
- decisions or trade-offs that changed their model
- a minimal example worth reusing

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add kriscard/skills/til@sha256:7df102d002d8c12b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.7f41b57, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
