README badge

README badge for openai/skills/notion-knowledge-capture

Captures conversations and notes into structured Notion pages for team wikis, how-tos, decision logs, and FAQs. Uses Notion MCP to fetch context, create pages with proper schemas, and link related records across databases.

Generated from the current SKILL.md.

Does this skill work with any Notion workspace, or do I need specific setup?
You need to connect the Notion MCP (Codex integration) first using OAuth. The skill includes setup instructions; if the MCP is not connected, it will pause and guide you through `codex mcp add notion` and login.
What types of content can I capture with this skill?
The skill supports decisions, how-to guides, FAQs, wiki/concept entries, learning notes, and documentation pages. It provides templates and schemas for each type in the `reference/` directory.
Can I update an existing Notion page or does this only create new ones?
You can do both. The skill can search and fetch existing pages with `Notion:notion-search` and `Notion:notion-fetch`, then update them via `Notion:notion-update-page` if you're revising prior content.
How does this skill handle linking and cross-references?
After creating or updating a page, the skill adds relations and backlinks to hub pages, related specs, and team records, then updates status and owner fields as the source evolves.
Do I need to know the Notion database schema beforehand?
No. The skill includes reference guides for each database type (team wiki, how-to, FAQ, decision log, etc.) that show required properties like title, tags, owner, and status.
