How to use it well

SilverBullet can turn repeated note structures into queryable information. First establish the content manually, then introduce queries and scripts where they replace a real recurring task instead of adding maintenance to a simple notebook.

Create useful notes and links before adding automation. Once recurring structures emerge, use queries to gather related information rather than maintaining duplicate index pages. Keep the underlying data backed up and test custom scripts on a small workspace before relying on them for routine capture.
