nac 777607dc29 chore(repo): establish project baseline
Track the source-of-truth code, skills, bootstrap rules, docs, and packaging files before adding new features.

Exclude local vault config, generated skill mirrors, temporary exports, virtual environments, and business data files from version control.

Validation: inspected staged file list and git ignored status before commit.

name: wiki-switch
description: >
Switch between multiple Obsidian wiki vault profiles. Use this skill when the user says
"/wiki-switch NAME", "switch to my work wiki", "switch vault", "change wiki", "which wiki am I on",
"list my wikis", "show my vaults", "create a new vault config", or "add a new wiki profile".
The skill manages named config files at ~/.obsidian-wiki/config.NAME and activates one by
symlinking it to ~/.obsidian-wiki/config.

# Wiki Switch — Manage Multiple Vault Profiles
Each vault is a complete config file at `~/.obsidian-wiki/config.<name>`. The active vault is
whichever file `~/.obsidian-wiki/config` symlinks to. Switching vaults means re-pointing that symlink.
## Dispatch
Parse the invocation and route to the right section:
| Invocation | Action |
|---|---|
| `/wiki-switch <name>` | → **Switch** |
| `/wiki-switch list` | → **List** |
| `/wiki-switch show [name]` | → **Show** |
| `/wiki-switch new <name>` | → **New** |
| `/wiki-switch` (no args) | → **List** (treat as list) |
---
## Switch (default action)
Activate a named vault profile.
1. Verify `~/.obsidian-wiki/config.<name>` exists. If not, tell the user the vault doesn't exist and list what's available (run **List**).
2. Run:
```bash
ln -sf ~/.obsidian-wiki/config.<name> ~/.obsidian-wiki/config
```
3. Read `OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH` from the newly active config.
4. Confirm to the user:
```
Switched to vault: <name>
Vault path: <value of OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH from the config>
```
---
## List
Show all registered vault profiles and which is active.
1. Find all files matching `~/.obsidian-wiki/config.*` (exclude `config` itself — that's the symlink).
2. Resolve the current symlink target: `readlink ~/.obsidian-wiki/config`
3. For each config file, read the first non-empty comment line (lines starting with `#`) as a human description of the vault. Fall back to the file's suffix as the label if no comment exists.
4. Display:
```
Vaults:
personal My personal research wiki ← active
work Work projects wiki
```
Mark the active one with `← active`. If the symlink is broken or `config` doesn't exist, show `(none active)`.
---
## Show
Print the full config for a vault.
- If a name is given, read `~/.obsidian-wiki/config.<name>`.
- If no name given, read `~/.obsidian-wiki/config` (the active vault).
- If the file doesn't exist, tell the user and list what's available.
- Print the file contents verbatim (redact any lines containing `API_KEY` or `SECRET` — show `***` instead of the value).
---
## New
Scaffold a new vault config from the current active config as a template.
1. Check `~/.obsidian-wiki/config.<name>` doesn't already exist. Abort if it does.
2. Copy the active config:
```bash
cp ~/.obsidian-wiki/config ~/.obsidian-wiki/config.<name>
```
3. Read the copied config. Config files use `# --- Section name ---` comment headers to group fields into sections (e.g., `# --- Vault-specific ---`, `# --- Vault-independent ---`, `# --- Secrets ---`). Use these sections to determine what to ask about:
- Fields in sections labeled "vault-specific", "paths", or similar → ask the user for new values
- Fields in sections labeled "vault-independent", "global", "shared" → keep as-is (copy over unchanged)
- Fields in sections labeled "secrets" → ask if the new vault uses the same credentials or different ones
- If there are no section headers, present all fields and let the user decide which to change
4. Ask the user for updated values for the vault-specific fields. Use the current values as visible defaults — the user only needs to supply what differs.
5. Write the updated values into `~/.obsidian-wiki/config.<name>`.
6. Update the top comment line to describe the new vault (e.g., `# Obsidian Wiki — <name> vault`).
7. Confirm:
```
Created: ~/.obsidian-wiki/config.<name>
Run `/wiki-switch <name>` to activate it, then run `wiki-setup` to initialise the new vault.
```
Do not switch automatically — let the user decide when to activate.
