Status

Read-only legacy after 2026-11-05. This vault is the source of truth; migration done: 175 pages across 14 books imported on 2026-11-05, including AI, Electricity, Investing & Trading, Linux, Notes, Photography, Programming, Property & Cars, Recipes, Tech Support, temp list, Templates, Useful Resources, Van Life.

Still only in BookStack: Health (29 pages) and Private Notes (25 pages). Decide later whether to migrate them.

Keep pdb running as a browsable front-end if useful, but new notes go here.

Migration

90-meta/scripts/import_bookstack.py (in this vault) reads the BookStack database read-only and regenerates 40-reference/. 80 pages were already Markdown; the rest were converted from HTML. Images keep absolute https://pdb.seabee.me/uploads/... URLs.
