r/orgmode

Is this platform, as before, +- anonymous?

I just created this account in order to sometimes or often leave some statements about my condition (mental and similar in this "genre")

And it wouldn't be easy for me if this platform stopped being anonymous.

I use Emacs and Org mode for todos, and I would like to sync some TODOs entries to github project as draft items or issues.

Has anyone found a package or workflow that can take org headings and create github projects items, then optionally add them to a project? Ideally, I would like to keep task metadata such as repository, story points, iteration etc. etc. in the org heading, and store the resulting issue URL or ID back in the file.

Does anyone use org-mode for planning work in GitHub? Is this a practical approach, and if so, what tooling do you use?

Thank you

Been using org-mode for years and always felt like querying my notes was either "open Emacs" or "grep and pray." So I built orgfs — a FUSE filesystem that exposes your org files as a structured directory tree.

Some examples:

ls ~/orgfs/tags/work/ - all headings tagged :work:

ls ~/orgfs/states/TODO/ - everything in TODO state

ls ~/orgfs/scheduled/2026/05/ - scheduled this month

ls ~/orgfs/properties/WITH/ - browse by any property value

OrgFs supports dynamic queries via mkdir

mkdir "~/orgfs/queries/tag.work+state.TODO" # AND

mkdir "~/orgfs/queries/tag.work,tag.personal" # OR

mkdir "~/orgfs/queries/scheduled.past+state.TODO"

Each result is a virtual read only .org file named {source}_L{line}.org so you know exactly where to edit.

One thing I've found useful: hooking it up to an AI assistant that runs orgfs queries from natural language — but curious if others have ideas for how to use something like this.

Still early and rough around the edges — would love feedback on whether this is useful, and what's missing.

Here are some promo codes and testflight link, have at it and would love some feedback

This is a test post for automation testing

A few days ago someone posted a package called sync.el that syncs org files with git. Looked useful. Turns out it was just a README and a payment form asking for $1 in Solana.

So I wrote the real thing.

What it does:

• async git sync on save (debounced so it doesn't spam git while you're typing)
• auto commit + pull --rebase + push
• conflict detection
• auto-initialises the git repo and prompts for a remote if you haven't set one up
• never freezes emacs, all non-blocking

Setup:

elisp

(require 'sync)
(setq sync-directory "~/org")
(sync-mode 1)

Doom users: (package! sync :recipe (:host sourcehut :repo "zelda/sync.el"))

Repo: https://git.sr.ht/~zelda/sync.el

GPL-3, free as in actual free

this is a project from someone that sucks at programming

every piece of criticism and every review is appreciated

Just baked my new emacs package! This is how I manage my AI coding assistant skills, which is from a single SKILLS.org file, without touching a single line of YAML.

If you're used to ox-hugo or ox-zola, this should feel extremely natural (I actually took most of the ideas from rewriting the backend of ox-zola recently).

It's an Org export backend that writes {base-dir}/{name}/SKILL.md. Drop in your skill keywords, run C-c C-e s a (or SPC m e s a), and it batch-exports every subtree that has an EXPORT_SKILL_NAME property. Works with Claude Code, OpenCode, or any tool that reads SKILL.md files.

Another cool thing is you can write the skills as org-roam notes and export them into a specific directory hierarchy with ease. Section headings with EXPORT_SKILL_SUBDIR become path segments. You can scatter the skills across multiple Org files or put them in a single one: it's up to you. Whatever you choose, you can also create multiple directories by just creating nodes in the Org paragraph and you can easily add notes around your skills without contaminating the prompts.

Zero external deps (just ox-md from core).

Here's my actual skills repo as a simple live example:

Explore it, fork it, have fun with it.

Would love feedback from you all!
