5 Core System Files + 5 Shared Rules + 9 Architecture Patterns that power the CMDSPACE Personal Knowledge Management ecosystem.
https://system.cmdspace.work
CMDS (CMDSPACE) is a comprehensive Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) system built on Obsidian with 10,000+ notes. This repository contains the core system files that provide complete guidance for AI agents and human users working with the vault.
What's New in v4.2 (2026年04月15日)
CMDS Process Command Suite — 8 slash commands aligned with Connect / Merge / Develop / Share
Stage commands : /connect, /merge, /develop, /shareCross-cutting utilities : /inbox (router), /lint, /query, /status
Design principles :
/inbox is router-only (scans 9 inbox subfolders, routes via AskUserQuestion)/share is orchestrator-only (delegates to existing skills — thebetter-writer, markdown-slides, etc.)/query results classify into CMDS categories — no separate folder
10 new camelCase frontmatter fields : mergePurpose, sourceNotes, mainVaultRelated, developSources, shareSourceNotes, shareFormat, sharePurpose, queryOrigin, querySources, sourceInbox
v4.1 (2026年04月07日) — description field (English, LLM relevance hint) added as required property; 7 required properties totalv4.0 (2026年04月01日) — Shared rules (.claude/rules/) via @include; 9 architecture patterns; enhanced frontmatter (precedence, memory-type, token-estimate, etc.)v3.0 (2026年03月15日) — Structured YAML frontmatter; share system with placeholder rulesv2.0 (2026年01月20日) — 5-file architecture (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, CMDS.md, CMDS Guide, CMDS Head Quarter)v1.0 (2025年10月01日) — Initial system files

Architecture Patterns (from Claude Code Source Analysis)
#
Pattern
Purpose
1
precedence File priority ordering (1-5) for conflict resolution
2
STATIC/DYNAMIC Cache-aware sections for AI processing
3
@include Shared rules via file inclusion (AI reads inline)
4
Essential Post-compact recovery — core rules that survive context compression
5
required-for/optional-for Agent scoping — which tasks need which files
6
memory-type Maps to Claude Code's memdir types (feedback/user/reference)
7
token-estimate Token budget awareness for AI load prioritization
8
changelog Inline version history in each file's frontmatter
9
shared rules Common rules in .claude/rules/ shared via @include
Syntax
Purpose
Used By
@pathAI reads file content inline
AI agents (Claude Code, etc.)
[[name]]Obsidian internal link for navigation
Obsidian graph view, backlinks
