Snippet Posts Implementation Plan

Objective

Create a Python script and a new Gemini skill to migrate Obsidian snippets to Jekyll posts.

Proposed Solution

• A script scripts/migrate_snippets.py that takes a date as an argument.
• It will list and process files from Obsidian’s lit/snippets/ folder.
• It will follow the TDD approach.

Implementation Steps

1. Script Development:
   • Define the SnippetMigrator class to handle the logic.
   • Implement fetch_snippets(date) using obsidian files.
   • Implement parse_snippet(content) to extract front matter and body.
   • Implement transform_to_jekyll(snippet) to generate the target front matter and filename.
   • Implement write_post(jekyll_post) to save to _posts/.
2. Testing:
   • Create tests/test_migrate_snippets.py.
   • Mock obsidian CLI responses.
   • Verify front matter transformation (title prefix, date format, slug generation).
   • Verify content preservation.
3. Skill Creation:
   • Use skill-creator to define the snippet-posts skill.
   • The skill should wrap the execution of the migration script and provide helpful feedback.
4. Validation:
   • Dry run for 2026-04-06.
   • Confirm the generated files in _posts/ match the expected format.

Verification

• Run the migration for today (2026-04-06).
• Check the output files:
  • Do they have the 🔗 prefix?
  • Is the date correct?
  • Are the tags transferred?
  • Is the content intact?
