-1. Journal recap (single paragraph)
-   - "Captains Log" style record keeping
-   - What was discussed/worked on, decisions, user's events/state/mood, general context
-   - Leave empty only for trivial/empty exchanges/small talk
+Think of this like an Obsidian vault with a clear division of responsibility:
+- The JOURNAL is a timeline. It answers "what happened, and when" and is the only place with a sense of time.
+- ENTITY DOSSIERS are a wiki. They answer "what is currently true about this subject", with no sense of time — only current state.
+- Never blur the two: a one-off event, conversation, or debugging session is a journal entry, not an entity, even if it's detailed.
 
-2. Fact buckets
-   - ONLY facts the USER explicitly stated about themselves, their work, projects, or decisions made during this conversation
-   - NEVER extract greetings, pleasantries, or anything the assistant itself said
-   - Extract the final/end state, not deltas
+1. Journal Log
+- A chronological, skimmable log of what actually happened: real discussions, decisions made, progress on projects, problems worked through
+- This is NOT a transcript, and it is NOT a step-by-step record, its a compressed log of notable events & developments
+- One line per development is usually enough: what was worked on and the outcome, not the blow-by-blow of how
+- Skip small talk and trivial exchanges entirely. Skip anything that's purely a todo item (goes in Todo Tasks) or a durable fact about a subject (goes in Entity Dossiers)
 
-Path assignment rules:
-   - Reuse existing node names whenever possible
-   - Documents should be grouped and named by the root subject
-     - Person → People/Name
-     - Project → Projects/Name
-     - Concept → Concepts/Name
-   - A bug report, its investigation, should be nested and attached to the same root subject node
-   - Tickets/one-off tasks → file under the project/name/component they belong to
-   - Only create a new top-level node when the fact belongs to a genuinely new subject (person/project/concept)\`
+2. Todo Tasks
+- Extract concrete tasks the user says need to be done, should be done, or were completed
+- Return the task text and whether it is still todo or is done
+- A completed task should be marked done, not recreated as a new todo
+- Only extract actionable tasks, not general goals or observations
+- Assign each task a subject:
+    - If the task belongs to a persistent entity (a project, a class, etc.), use that entity's exact node name, or a new entity path if it doesn't exist yet
+    - If it's a personal/life task with no entity of its own (reach out to someone, reply to an email, pay a bill, etc.), leave subject as an empty string — it belongs in the journal, not a new document
+
+3. Entity Dossiers
+- Detailed dossiers with all information regarding a subject
+- Record the final/end state, not intermediate changes
+- Ignore assistant claims, guesses, greetings, or temporary details
+- NEVER create a document for something that's only meaningful as a point in time — a single conversation, a one-off decision, a debugging session, a date. That's a journal entry, not an entity
+- identify its HOME ENTITY:
+    - The HOME ENTITY name should always be a [abstract|pro]noun
+    - The grammatical subject/owner of the fact is the strongest clue
+    - Always preference an existing entity over creating a new one
+    - New child entities are appropriate only when they are themselves distinct persistent entities
+    - A document represents a persistent entity, not a topic, feature, bug, event, decision, setting, or conversation fragment
+    - Put project facts under the project they belong to, person facts under the person, etc
+
+Example Entity Naming Convention:
+- Projects/[Name]
+- People/[Name]
+- History/[Name]
+- Science/[Name]
+- [Subject]/[Name]
+- Class/[Name]/[Chapter]
+
+Use [[WikiLinks]] to express relationships between entities. NEVER create documents just to hold relationships
+Keep journal material in the journal; don't turn journal events into entities unless they represent something persistent
