Concurrent Notes Finder
Find notes that were edited around the same time as a reference note.
When to Use
Invoke when you want to:
- Reconstruct context: "What was I working on when I wrote this?"
- Find related work from the same session
- Identify notes that might be conceptually related (edited together)
- Understand your workflow patterns
Arguments
| Argument | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
path |
Yes | - | Path to the reference note |
hours |
No | 24 | Time window in hours (before and after) |
Process
1. Parse User Input
Identify the reference note and time window:
- "what else was I editing when I wrote [[Project Alpha]]?"
- "notes edited around the same time as today's daily note"
- "concurrent notes within 4 hours of this meeting note"
2. Call MCP Tool
mcp__flywheel__get_contemporaneous_notes(
path: "projects/Project Alpha.md",
hours: 24
)
3. Format Results

|---|---|
| 1 hour | Same work session |
| 4 hours | Same focus block |
| 24 hours | Same day/night cycle |
| 72 hours | Same project sprint |
Use Cases
- Context recovery: "What was I researching when I wrote this?"
- Session reconstruction: "Show my work session from that day"
- Relationship discovery: "Find notes I edited together"
- Workflow analysis: "How do I work across notes?"
Integration
Works well with other skills:
- vault-activity: Get broader activity patterns
- vault-path: Check if concurrent notes are linked
- vault-common: Find shared references among concurrent notes
- vault-backlinks: See if concurrent notes reference each other
