Log Triage

Process daily note log entries into structured inbox notes.

Critical Rules

1. Always confirm before creating notes
2. Preserve raw transcriptions in voice memos (never truncate)
3. Mark processed entries with ✅ <time> - Processed → [[Note Title]]
4. Create notes in 00 Inbox/

Entry Detection & Handler Routing

When you encounter a log entry, detect type and load the appropriate handler:

Load the handler ONLY when you encounter that entry type. This keeps context minimal.

Session Flow

1. Read daily note → Find ## Log section
2. Parse entries → Detect types
3. Show triage plan → Get user confirmation
4. For each entry:
   → Load appropriate handler
   → Extract/fetch content
   → Create note
   → Mark entry as processed
5. Summary → What was created

Step 1: Find Daily Note

para_read({ file: "000 Timestamps/Daily Notes/YYYY-MM-DD.md" })

If no date specified, find most recent note with log entries.

Step 2: Parse Log Section

Find ## Log heading. Parse entries matching:

- [time] - [content]

Skip entries already marked with ✅.

Step 3: Show Triage Plan

Before processing, show what each entry will become:

Found 3 log entries:

1. 🎤 9:26am (~2000 words) → Meeting note
2. 🎤 12:04pm (45 words) → Capture note
3. URL 1:33pm (x.com) → Tweet clipping

Proceed? [y/n]

Step 4: Process Each Entry

Load the appropriate handler and follow its instructions for:

• Content extraction
• Note creation
• Frontmatter population

Step 5: Mark as Processed

After creating the note, replace the log entry:

Before: - 6:21 pm - https://youtube.com/watch?v=abc123
After:  - 6:21 pm - ✅ Processed → [[✂️🎬 Channel - Video Title]]

Use the Edit tool on the daily note directly.
