Launches the `literature-capturer` agent to capture an external source as a literature note. The agent fetches the source, extracts core ideas in persona voice, finds vault connections and counterpoints, verifies claims, and writes to `2-literature/`.

Use AskUserQuestion:
What source would you like to capture?
- A URL: I'll fetch and extract core ideas
- A paper title or citation: I'll search for it first
Argument provided: Proceed immediately.
Launch the literature-capturer agent with:
{{VAULT}}/The agent definition is at PLUGIN/agents/literature-capturer.md.
The agent may identify existing vault notes that reference the source without wiki-links. Present these to the user and execute approved edits.
The literature-capturer is a subagent. The literature note it wrote to 2-literature/ bypassed PostToolUse, so backlinks and edge inference didn't run. Replay on the returned path:
printf '%s\n' "$LITERATURE_NOTE_PATH" \
| node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/sweep-hook-replay.mjs" --stdin
Where $LITERATURE_NOTE_PATH is constructed from the agent's response (e.g. {{VAULT}}/2-literature/<filename>, where <filename> is the kebab-case filename literature-capturer returned). The backlink edits from Step 2 happen via main-thread Edit and trigger PostToolUse normally: no replay needed for those. See skills/_shared/hook-replay.md for the full pattern.
The agent returns a structured report with the captured note, connections, counterpoints, and related sources. Present it to the user.

Extracts knowledge from source notes (papers, posts, books, lectures) into a vault's permanent knowledge base using evidence-based learning techniques.
Builds Wikipedia-style Obsidian vaults from academic PDFs, extracting concepts into linked notes with atomic sentences and citations. Expands existing networks with new papers.
