## Syntax

See `references/flashcard-syntax.md` for formats:
- `::` single-sided
- `:::` bidirectional
- `;;` multi-line
- `==text==` cloze deletions

## Process

1. If file path: read and analyze it
2. If topic: search vault for relevant notes
3. Identify key concepts, terms, gotchas worth remembering
4. Generate cards grouped by subtopic
5. Ask where to add:
   - Inline within source note
   - Dedicated flashcards section at bottom
   - Separate flashcards file
6. Add cards to chosen location

## Guidelines

- **Atomic**: one concept per card
- **Bidirectional** for terminology, translations, concept ↔ example
- **Cloze** for port numbers, values, command syntax
- **Avoid**: yes/no questions, overly long answers, memorizing lists

Generate cards useful for recall, not trivial facts.
