Find unanswered questions

List questions this note raises that nothing answers yet.

Called find-unanswered-question in the step's YAML.

A Knowledge action. It asks nothing in the wizard. It reads the note's outgoing question relations whose question has no incoming supports relation yet. Deterministic and offline.

Settings

  • Result property — where the list of links is written. Default: unanswered-questions.
  • Write to — Frontmatter (a property on the note) or Context (only for the next steps). Default: Frontmatter. Either way the next steps can use it as {{<result property>}}, e.g. {{unanswered-questions}}.
  • Target note (optional) — the note to analyze. Empty uses the note being built.

What it writes

---
unanswered-questions:
  - "[[Why do people stop reviewing notes]]"
---

A notice reports the count. As soon as a supports relation points into a question, it drops off the list. If the index isn't ready or the note isn't indexed, the action does nothing.

File-system read + the disclosed result-property write. No network, no AI.
