How do I trigger the background document generation?

You can trigger the skill by using the /background command or by asking Claude to perform tasks like formula derivation, theorem proofs, or prerequisite paper summaries.

Can this help with internal linking in Obsidian?

Absolutely. The skill follows specific reference patterns to link your background documents (like [[Background/Math/Theorems/UAT|UAT]]) directly into your primary research notes.

Does it automatically organize my files?

Yes, it follows a specific folder structure within 'References/Background/', separating content into Math, Topics, and Prerequisites folders for better organization.

Is this only for math-heavy papers?

While it has excellent support for mathematical theories, it is equally useful for any research field that requires tracking prerequisite literature and complex topical backgrounds.

What kind of templates are available?

The skill includes specialized templates for Math concepts (theorems), Research Topics (overviews), and Prerequisite Papers (summaries).
