Adds the API docs that #2247 left for release time, using the text from its "Docs at release" section. The docs deploy from master, so this should merge right after 2.33.0 is published.

  • QuickAdd API: executeChoice takes a name or { id }. Adds new sections for getChoice, pickChoice, and importPackage (under a new Packages heading), and adds a Packages row to the module table.
  • API Overview: adds a row to Common tasks that links to both sections.

Verification

I ran each documented call in Obsidian on the master build. pickChoice({ placeholder: "Choose a capture choice" }) shows that placeholder and resolves the picked choice's id without running it. After the choice is renamed, executeChoice({ id }, { value: "12:34" }) writes - 12:34. The CI Docs job builds the site and checks links and anchors, including the new #packages anchor.

No release or migration impact. This PR changes docs only.


Note

Low Risk
Docs-only changes with no runtime, security, or migration impact.

Overview
Documentation-only release companion for APIs shipped in 2.33.0: the QuickAdd API reference and API overview now describe choice lookup/selection, id-based execution, and unattended package import.

QuickAddAPI.md expands Choice execution: executeChoice is documented as accepting a choice name or { id } (stable across renames), with new reference sections for getChoice (metadata lookup, returns null silently) and pickChoice (same UI as QuickAdd: Run, does not run the choice, cancellation behavior). A new Packages module documents importPackage, including skip-if-exists semantics, command registration, and rejection of invalid or unsafe packages (with pointers to settings/URI import).

The module index and APIOverview common-tasks table are updated so readers can find pick/install workflows and the new #packages anchor.

Note

Document pickChoice, getChoice, id-based executeChoice, and importPackage APIs

  • Adds reference docs for quickAddApi.pickChoice (async picker with search placeholder, folder navigation, cancellation behavior) and quickAddApi.getChoice (lookup by name or id, returns choice metadata or null).
  • Updates quickAddApi.executeChoice docs: it now accepts a name or an { id } object. Ids survive renaming and can come from pickChoice or getChoice.
  • Adds a Packages section for quickAddApi.importPackage: installs package JSON without the interactive review, reports added/skipped ids, and rejects invalid or code-running packages.
  • Adds a common-tasks entry linking choice picking and package install in APIOverview.md; full references live in QuickAddAPI.md.

Macroscope summarized 22af1a0.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Expanded the API overview with guidance for choosing a choice or installing a ready-made package.
    • Documented choice lookup, interactive selection without execution, and execution by name or ID. Name-based execution uses the first matching choice; missing choices report an error and resolve.
    • Added package import details: existing choice IDs and files are skipped without overwriting, and invalid packages or packages that run code or execute a choice on startup are rejected.

A rabbit reads the choice guide at dawn,
Finds names and IDs to call upon.
It picks a choice, but lets it rest,
Then brings a package, safely checked.
The burrow’s docs now show the way,
And carrots mark the API.
