Apple Shortcut for adding to the vault inbox

1. Receive URLs (if using from Share Sheet)
2. Ask for text - freeform thought
3. Pull current time and duration from wake up
4. Create file with
   • File name as “YYYY-MM-dd HHmmss Z” and part of the freeform input text
   • File body with the date wikilinked to the daily file, the time, day duration, freeform thought, URL (if applicable), and tagged with “inbox”
5. Save to the vault folder

The new file is dropped in a location in the vault where it can be consistently and reliably processed later (Vault inbox). Mine are found by querying for the “inbox” tag.
