Append a timestamped thought to the capture inbox, verbatim. Use for a fast "get it out of my head" note, mirroring a desktop capture hotkey.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

1 rule. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈0

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    If the file is missing, create it with a # Quick Capture heading first.

    line 25

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

capture-to-inbox

Fast "get it out of my head" path. Mirrors a desktop capture hotkey.

When to Use

  • A quick single-line thought to stash without breaking flow.
  • The hotkey-capture equivalent in chat.

Procedure

  1. Take the raw text as a single line. Do not rewrite or improve it — preserve the user's voice.
  2. Resolve the inbox dir (don't hardcode): python $MYOS_ENGINES/myos_paths.py get inbox. Target file: <inbox>/Quick Capture.md.
  3. With a file tool (read_file/write_file/patch, not cat), append one line: - HH:MM — <text> (24h local).
  4. If the file is missing, create it with a # Quick Capture heading first.
  5. Confirm: the timestamp + captured text. Nothing else.

Pitfalls

  • Don't rewrite the thought — verbatim only.
  • Don't trigger sync or export — capture stays instant.
  • Multi-paragraph or needs-filing → that's process-inbox/file-note, not this.

Verification

  • The new - HH:MM — <text> line is present at the tail of <inbox>/Quick Capture.md.

Cadence

On demand — instant capture.

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
