  Can you create an Obsidian canvas file titled 'Project Roadmap' in the 'main' project that visualizes the timeline and key milestones for the next 6 months?

  To create an Obsidian canvas file titled "Project Roadmap" in the "main" project, I need to first confirm the existence of the "main" project and then proceed with creating the canvas file. Let's start by checking the available projects. The "main" project is available and currently active. Now, I will create the Obsidian canvas file titled "Project Roadmap" to visualize the timeline and key milestones for the next 6 months. Let's proceed with that. It seems that the canvas creation requires additional parameters that were not provided. Specifically, it needs nodes and edges to be defined.

  Let’s clarify how we want to visualize the timeline and key milestones for the next 6 months. Here are some considerations:

  • What specific milestones should be included?
  • How would you like to structure the timeline (e.g., by month, week)?
  • Any specific relationships between milestones to define edges?

  Please provide this information so I can create the canvas file accurately.

  1. The agent correctly identifies that creating an Obsidian canvas file requires defining nodes and edges, which are essential components of the canvas structure.

  2. It accurately requests additional information regarding specific milestones, timeline structure, and relationships to effectively create the canvas.

  3. The response aligns with the agent's described capabilities, particularly in creating Obsidian canvas files to visualize concepts and connections.

  1. While the agent correctly identifies the need for additional details, it does not provide guidance on how to structure or format the required information for creating the canvas.

  2. The response lacks an explanation of the JSON Canvas format used by Obsidian, which could help the user understand how to define nodes and edges.

  3. The agent's request for more information is clear; however, providing an example or template of how to define nodes and edges would enhance clarity and assist the user in supplying the necessary details.
