/person

Quick-create a person note.

Usage

/person <name>
/person <name> from <organisation>
/person <name> role <job title>

Examples

/person John Smith
/person Sarah Jones from VendorA
/person Mike Chen role Solutions Architect from SAP

Instructions

1. Parse the command for:

   • name: Person's full name (required)
   • organisation: Company/org (after "from")
   • role: Job title (after "role")

2. Check if person already exists:

   • Search for {{name}}.md (no prefix)
   • Also check legacy Person - {{name}}.md format
   • If exists, show existing note instead of creating duplicate

3. Generate filename: {{name}}.md (no prefix - type is in frontmatter)

4. Create person note in vault root:

---
type: Person
title: {{name}}
created: {{DATE}}
modified: {{DATE}}
role: {{role or null}}
organisation: {{org_link or null}}
emailAddress: null
tags: []
---

# {{name}}

## Contact Information

- **Role**: {{role}}
- **Organisation**: {{org_link}}
- **Email**:

WHERE type = "Meeting" AND contains(attendees, this.file.link)
SORT date DESC
LIMIT 10

LIST
FROM ""
WHERE type = "Project" AND contains(file.outlinks, this.file.link)

5. For organisation:
   - Check if `Organisation - {{org}}.md` exists
   - If yes, link: `"[[Organisation - VendorA]]"`
   - If no, just use the name (offer to create org note)

6. After creating:
   - Confirm creation with file path
   - Suggest linking from relevant meetings
   - If from known org, load context about that org

## Note on Naming Convention

Person notes no longer require the "Person - " prefix. The note type is determined by the `type: Person` frontmatter field, not the filename. This allows for cleaner wiki-links like `[[John Smith]]` instead of `[[John Smith]]`.

Legacy files with the "Person - " prefix will still work but can be renamed using `/rename`.
