Use when the user asks to create a new note. mode=create always creates a new note; if the same slug already exists, obsidian-writer creates _2, _3, etc. Content should be well-formatted Markdown. Do not repeat the title as a heading inside content when title is already provided separately.

Append Markdown content to an existing note in the configured default vault. Use when the user asks to add content to an existing note. Before using, prefer calling obsidian_list_notes to discover the correct slug. If needed, use obsidian_read_note to understand the note before adding content.

If a compatible note exists, use its slug and append. If not, let obsidian-writer create the note. Before using, prefer calling obsidian_list_notes.
