Quick Capture Skill

This skill captures text into the busytown-notes pipeline for processing into atomic Zettelkasten notes.

Usage

When invoked with /quick-capture <text>, this skill will:

  1. Take all text after the command
  2. Push a capture.request event to the busytown event queue
  3. Confirm submission to the user

The text may be a voice memo transcript, an idea, a thought, or any content.

Instructions

When the user invokes this skill:

  1. Extract all text after the /quick-capture command
  2. Properly escape the content for JSON (escape quotes, newlines, backslashes,

etc.)

  1. Push the event using:

``bash busytown events push --worker user --type capture.request --payload '{"content":"<escaped text>"}' ``

  1. Confirm to the user that the capture was submitted
  2. Mention they can watch progress with busytown events list --tail 10

Example

User input:

/quick-capture I was thinking about how spaced repetition and the Zettelkasten method share a common principle.

bash
busytown events push --worker user --type capture.request --payload '{"content":"I was thinking about how spaced repetition and the Zettelkasten method share a common principle."}'
