Tips for Best Results

Regular Note-Taking

The more actively you use your vault, the more valuable this module becomes. Regular updates give it more to analyze.

Meaningful Note Titles

Clear, descriptive titles help the AI generate better summaries and make the recent notes list more useful.

Frontmatter Dates

If you use creation/modification dates in frontmatter, the module can use these for more accurate change detection.
