# Inbox
Raw captures from [Obsidian Web Clipper](https://obsidian.md/clipper) land here. This is a staging zone, not an archive.
## Rules
- **Triage weekly.** Items stay at most **7 days**. After that, promote or delete.
- **Promote** a clip to `Sources/` (prefix with `@`) if it's worth a literature note.
- **Delete** if the value was in the reading, not the keeping.
- Nothing in `Inbox/` is published to jeromem.dev (excluded in `.obsidian/publish.json`).
## AI at capture — Clipper's Interpreter
Obsidian Web Clipper has an **Interpreter** feature (disabled by default). Once enabled with an API key, prompt variables in templates get sent to the LLM along with the page, and the response is inlined into the note.
- Settings → Interpreter → enable, add Anthropic (or OpenAI-compatible) API key.
- In the Article template, use `{{"Write a 3-bullet summary, then list up to 5 key quotes"}}` as a variable — the LLM fills it on capture.
- Context size is per-template; smaller = faster and cheaper.
- Works with local models too (Ollama at `http://localhost:11434/v1/`).
## Triage workflow (post-capture)
Even with Interpreter on, weekly triage is still worth doing. Run Claude Code against this folder and ask it to:
1. Suggest which items to promote to `Sources/` vs. delete.
2. For keepers, propose 2–3 wikilinks into `Notes/`.
3. Draft a one-paragraph "why this matters" framing based on `Home.md`, `Now.md`, and `Notes/Index.md`.
