蔵 · KURA · THE STOREHOUSE

Life first.
Plans second.

An operator HUD for Obsidian. Dark, dense, calm. Built on one principle: your life is the front door, and your work runs downstream of it. Family, health, money and focus sit up top. Ventures and tasks sit below.

The Command Vault dashboard in Obsidian: a Status board above a two column Priority Stack, over a life areas grid.

Readout 01 · The Problem

You do not need another planner.

You need one page that shows you your whole life at a glance and then gets out of the way. Most systems fail the opposite direction. They ask you to maintain them, and the maintenance becomes the work.

Command Vault is one note plus one stylesheet. Open it and you know where you stand in about four seconds. Close it and it asks nothing of you.

Readout 02 · 32 Palettes

32 palettes. One edit each.

Six CSS variables sit at the top of the stylesheet. Change them and every card, header, pill and corner bracket follows. 32 ready-made palettes ship with it, each one contrast-checked so the HUD stays readable. Copy a block, paste, reload, done.
