Dynamic templates (date math, prompts, cursor) + user-defined templates

[ipapakonstantinou]

New community gap (3rd scan). Source: community research + code check.

What users want: templates computed at insertion time — date math, interactive prompts, pick-lists, cursor placement. noteser's templates are currently static (verified: createFromTemplate sets content: template.content verbatim in src/stores/noteStore.ts, only a hardcoded weekly-review special case), and users can't even define their own (only DEFAULT_TEMPLATES).

Evidence:

• "Templater computes things at insertion time, like yesterday's date... interactive prompts, cursor placement" https://www.obsibrain.com/blog/obsidian-templater-plugin-guide
• "Add date functions (yesterday, tomorrow…) to the Template plugin" https://forum.obsidian.md/t/add-date-functions-yesterday-tomorrow-etc-to-the-template-plugin/4755 · periodic-notes Vault crypto: passphrase-based encryption module + tests #16/Inline-editable embeds / two-way synced transclusion (extends embeds) #127

Demand: High & durable — Templater is one of the most-installed Obsidian plugins.

noteser fit: High — pure client-side string templating, no storage interaction.

How: user-defined templates (persisted) + a substitution pass resolving {{date}}, {{date+3d}}, {{title}}, {{cursor}}, and {{prompt:...}} before insert.

Evidence strength: secondary (forum snippets + plugin reputation).
