Obsidian Writing
This mode is the writing-launcher core of GPT AI Flow. It connects to your Obsidian Vault, finds material before you start writing, and helps you re-enter when you are stuck.
Two Problems It Solvesβ
1. Starting is hard. You have a topic but do not know where to begin. Writing mode scans your Vault, finds related notes, forgotten fragments, and second-circle material, then proposes 2β3 angles you can write from.
2. Resuming is hard. You open a half-written document and have no idea what you were thinking. Writing mode summarizes where you left off, lists unresolved questions, and gives you 3 concrete sentences to continue from.
Default Toolsβ
Obsidian Writing mode enables the full toolchain by default:
| Tool | Purpose |

| File Ops | Read, create, and update Markdown files in your Vault |
