Dashboards and Views

ClawVault provides text-based summaries, stats, and Obsidian Bases views for vault management.

Text Dashboard

For terminal-based workflows, clawvault dashboard prints a vault summary:

Stats

Get detailed metrics about your vault:

clawvault stats

Shows memory counts by category, task velocity, transition patterns, and storage usage.

Obsidian Bases as Dashboards

The .base files generated by ClawVault act as lightweight dashboards inside Obsidian:

• all-tasks.base — sortable/filterable task table
• blocked.base — blocked tasks with escalation flags
• by-project.base — tasks grouped by project
• by-owner.base — tasks grouped by owner
• backlog.base — backlog items

These update automatically as you modify task files — no regeneration needed.

Kanban Board

The Board.md file is a Kanban-format board compatible with the Obsidian Kanban plugin:

clawvault kanban sync

This generates columns for each task status (open, in-progress, blocked, done) with cards linking to task files.

Neural Graph Theme

ClawVault includes a neural theme that styles your Obsidian vault with a graph-inspired aesthetic — dark backgrounds, glowing node connections, and color-coded categories.

Apply during init or setup:

# During initialization
clawvault init ~/memory --theme neural

# On an existing vault
clawvault setup --theme neural

The theme adds CSS snippets and graph view settings to your vault's .obsidian/ directory.
