How the habit works.
You don't have to.
When does it start? How does it check its work? What does it remember?
One run, step by step.
Then it stops.
Stops after one refresh and 5 test searches per run.
- 01
Check what is indexed
Your agent runs qmd collection list and qmd status.
- 02
Refresh
It runs qmd update and qmd embed, which you set up to run on a schedule.
- 03
Check health
It runs qmd doctor if anything fails.
- 04
Test searches
It runs saved qmd search and structured qmd query checks with intent and lex fields.
- 05
Log
It records status and which docids each search returned.
What it may do.
Nothing more.
It writes only in its own folder and asks you before anything goes out.
- Writes only inloops/qmd-notes-index-loop/**
- Talks tono outside service
- Sendsnothing
- Your OKNothing goes out, so it needs no OK.
Is it for you?
Use it when it fits.
Read both lists. If the left one sounds like you, the QMD skill helps.
Use it when
- ✓ You search your markdown notes
- ✓ You answer from indexed docs
- ✓ You set up QMD collections
Skip it when
- – Notes are not in markdown
- – You need web search
QMD skill, answered.
Should I answer from snippets?
No. Fetch the source with qmd get or qmd multi-get first.
Why not refresh on every search?
The skill treats qmd update and qmd embed as setup or maintenance, not casual steps.
How do I install the QMD skill?
Copy the prompt at the top into your agent. It installs the skill from tobi/qmd and sets up the habit. Or run npx skills add tobi/qmd --skill qmd.
Is the QMD skill free?
Yes. It is published under MIT. Habit is free too.
QMD. Now as a habit.
