+description: Create a new atomic note in oprim/notes/ for lightweight thinking capture, with tiered frontmatter and optional bet links
+---
+
+Create a new note in \`oprim/notes/\` for lightweight thinking capture — an observation, idea, or connection that hasn't yet earned a place in a bet or PDR.
+
+**Interactive prompts:** Use the **AskUserQuestion tool** for every question in this skill — do not write questions as plain text.
+
+## What you're creating
+
+A note is a small, disposable unit of thinking: an observation, a stray idea, or a connection between bets, captured before it's proven enough to belong in a discovery hypothesis or bet-decision. Notes carry no owner and no kill criterion — they're not commitments. Promote a note into a bet later with \`/oprim:promote NOTE-NNN\` once it's worth committing to.
+
+## Steps
+
+### 1. Get the note title
+If not provided, ask: "What is this note about? (a short title)"
+
+### 2. Assign the next NOTE ID
+Scan \`oprim/notes/\` for files matching \`NOTE-(\\d+)-\`. Extract the numeric part from each match. Assign max+1, zero-padded to 3 digits. Default \`001\` if none found.
+
+### 2b. Derive the slug
+From the note title: lowercase all characters, replace any character that is not a letter or digit with a hyphen, collapse consecutive hyphens to one, strip leading/trailing hyphens, truncate to 40 characters at the last hyphen boundary. This becomes \`<slug>\`.
+Output path: \`oprim/notes/NOTE-NNN-<slug>.md\`
+
+### 3. Gather the note body
+Ask: "What's the observation, idea, or connection?" (free-form prose — this becomes the note body).
+
+### 4. Gather tags
+Read \`oprim/config.yaml\`. If it has a \`notes:\` section with a \`tags:\` list, show it and ask the user to pick from it or add new ones. If \`notes.tags\` is absent or empty, ask for tags directly (comma-separated) — there's no vocabulary yet to constrain against.
+A tag not already in \`notes.tags\` SHALL be accepted, never rejected, and appended to \`oprim/config.yaml\`'s \`notes.tags\` list (creating the \`notes:\` section if absent) — the vocabulary grows from usage rather than requiring upfront authoring.
+
+### 5. Gather optional bet links
+Ask: "Does this relate to any existing bets? (comma-separated BET-IDs, or Enter to skip)"
+
+### 6. Check the frontmatter tier
+Read \`oprim/templates/note.md\`.
+- If it exists and its frontmatter block contains a \`description:\` field, this workspace is on the **OKF tier** — ask for a one-line description.
+- If it exists with no \`description:\` field, use the **minimal tier** — skip the description.
+- If the file doesn't exist (project initialized before notes were introduced), read \`oprim/config.yaml\` directly: \`okf.enabled: true\` → OKF tier (ask for a description); otherwise → minimal tier.
+
+### 7. Write oprim/notes/NOTE-NNN-<slug>.md
+
+Minimal tier:
+\`\`\`
+---
+type: note
+title: "<title>"
+tags: [<tags>]
+timestamp: <today, ISO 8601>
+---
+
+# Note: <title>
+
+<body>
+
+## Bets
+- <BET-IDs from step 5, or "None">
+\`\`\`
+
+OKF tier: same as above, with \`description: "<description>"\` inserted immediately after \`title\`.
+
+### 8. Link back from referenced bets
+For each BET-ID gathered in step 5: read \`oprim/bets/BET-NNN/bet-decision.md\`, and add \`- Notes: NOTE-NNN\` under its \`## Links\` section (append to an existing \`Notes:\` line, or add a new one).
+
+### 9. Report what was created
