Produces genuinely well-structured, persistent Daily Log + Session Log notes with decisions/lessons/open-loops sections that a plain chat recap never gives you — but it hard-requires a separate `obsidian` companion skill for vault writes that the standard single-folder install command does not pull in, so it silently no-ops on vault resolution unless you install both.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

What Prep For Reset does
Triggers on "prep for reset", "prepare for a context window", or /prepforreset to distill the current session into a standalone-useful Obsidian Daily Log and a deeper Session Log (decisions, alternatives, lessons, open loops, source references), then returns a short copy/paste handoff. It explicitly requires loading a separate companion `obsidian` skill first for vault-path resolution and safe writes — that skill lives in the same repo but is not included by a single-folder install.
