Prompt

Act as an Obsidian knowledge gardener who only uses a pasted vault inventory. You write a note link map the inventory already supports. You do not invent backlink counts, orphan scores, plugin IDs, or sync credentials. This is not a live Obsidian vault sync and not a second-brain coaching plan.
You work only from Inputs. Do not invent stats, citations, quotes, URLs, names, IDs, or records that are not in Inputs.

Inputs:
- Obsidian inventory I lock (notes, folders, link stubs): [Inventory]
- Obsidian / app version notes I lock: [Version]
- Vault or workspace label I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [Vault]
- Note titles already present (or UNKNOWN): [NoteTitles]
- Folder paths already present (or UNKNOWN): [Folders]
- Link targets already present (or UNKNOWN): [LinkTargets]
- Tag names already present (or UNKNOWN): [Tags]
- Words I must not use: [Banned]
- What I must never invent (backlink counts, orphan scores, plugin IDs, sync credentials): [Never]
- Output format: [Format]
- Language: [Lang]

Generate:
1. Honesty ledger: Inventory nouns, Version, Vault, NoteTitles, Folders, LinkTargets, Tags, Lang. Forbidden: invented backlink counts, orphan scores, plugin IDs, sync credentials. Banner: not a live Obsidian vault sync; not a second-brain coaching plan.
2. Note link map table: one row per Inventory note stub. Missing notes write NOT IN INPUTS. Use Wikilink, Alias, Folder, and Tag language only when Inventory supports it.
3. Link set: only targets in LinkTargets. Unnamed targets stay NOT IN INPUTS. Never invent backlink counts.
4. Version lock: print Version. Refuse Obsidian features newer than Version if Version is named.
5. Refuse list: inventing backlink counts, inventing orphan scores, inventing plugin IDs, inventing sync credentials.
6. Compliance pass: quote Banned and Never hits. Cut them. Format as Format.

Constraints:
- Map from Inventory only. No invented backlink counts. Teach Obsidian note link mapping, not a Notion database swap.
- Honor Version. No emojis.

Instructions

Replace every [bracket] with your details before running. Works on ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini.

Obsidian Vault Note Link Map from Vault Inventory (No Invented Backlink Counts) - Result

Examples

Example Input

Inventory: Note Cleat Mooring Log as pasted; Note River Gate Checklist as pasted; Folder 01 Harbor Ops as pasted; Alias UNKNOWN.
Version: Obsidian 1.6.5 as pasted (do not invent unreleased AI embed APIs)
Vault: Harbor Quay Knowledge as pasted

Folders: 01 Harbor Ops as pasted. 02 Archive UNKNOWN.
LinkTargets: [[Cleat Mooring Log]] as pasted. [[Capstan Index]] UNKNOWN.
Tags: #harbor-ops as pasted. #river-churn UNKNOWN.
Banned: guaranteed backlink count, orphan invent, plugin invent, sync invent
Never: invent backlink counts, invent orphan scores, invent plugin IDs, invent sync credentials
Format: ledger + table + links + version + refuse + compliance
Lang: English

Example Output

1. Ledger. Inventory: Note Cleat Mooring Log; Note River Gate Checklist; Folder 01 Harbor Ops; Alias UNKNOWN. Version Obsidian 1.6.5. Vault Harbor Quay Knowledge. NoteTitles Cleat Mooring Log, River Gate Checklist. Folders 01 Harbor Ops. LinkTargets [[Cleat Mooring Log]]. Tags #harbor-ops. Lang English. Banner: not a live Obsidian vault sync; not a second-brain coaching plan. Forbidden: invented backlink counts, orphan scores, plugin IDs, sync credentials.

2. Note link map.
1. Cleat Mooring Log | folder 01 Harbor Ops as pasted | link [[Cleat Mooring Log]] as pasted | backlink count NOT IN INPUTS | orphan score NOT IN INPUTS.
2. River Gate Checklist | folder 01 Harbor Ops as pasted | Capstan Index NOT IN INPUTS.
3. Alias | UNKNOWN so write Alias NOT IN INPUTS.
No invented VALUES beyond Inventory.

3. Link set. [[Cleat Mooring Log]] as LinkTargets. [[Capstan Index]] UNKNOWN so write [[Capstan Index]] NOT IN INPUTS. Never invent backlink counts.

4. Version lock. Obsidian 1.6.5 as pasted. Unreleased AI embed APIs not used. 02 Archive folder UNKNOWN.

5. Refuse. Invented backlink counts, orphan scores, plugin IDs, sync credentials: refused.

6. Compliance. Banned hits none. Format ledger+table+links+version+refuse+compliance. Gaps: Alias, Capstan Index note, 02 Archive folder, [[Capstan Index]] link, #river-churn tag.

Missing-data policy: if a field was blank, write NOT IN INPUTS rather than guessing. Lock any tool version named in Inputs; if unnamed, write unknown. No invented testimonials, star ratings, or press logos. If legal, clinical, insurance, HR, education-plan, or veterinary content appears, add a one-line not-advice and de-identify banner. Quote banned-word hits and cut them. End with a gaps list of five bullets the user still owes you. Character and byte caps in the job are hard; print counts when relevant. Refuse to backfill DOIs, exam dumps, PHI, PII, or compensation promises not in Inputs.
