Does this skill require VitePress?

The skill is designed to integrate with VitePress for documentation, but it also creates the underlying YAML schemas and record structures for general AI use.

What is a custom entity in Second Brain?

An entity is a structured data type, like a 'Project' or 'Contact', that you can track, validate, and document alongside your standard notes and tasks.

What field types are supported for my entities?

You can define fields as strings, integers, numbers, booleans, dates, datetimes, arrays, or enums with specific allowed values.

Can I change the ID format after creation?

It is recommended to choose your ID format (Sequential, Date-based, or UUID) carefully during the initial setup, as changing it later can complicate existing record relationships.

How do I initialize an entity if I don't have the config file?

The skill will check for a configuration file; if it's missing, it will prompt you to run 'secondbrain-init' to set up the necessary environment first.
