KBIntake, published by GeziP, is a Windows-friendly local vault importer designed to bring files and folders into a local knowledge-base vault with minimal friction. Its primary purpose is to streamline the intake of external content into a structured vault, making it a practical tool for users who maintain personal or project-based knowledge bases and need a reliable way to capture documents, notes, and directories from their everyday Windows environment. The software can be operated from PowerShell, fitting naturally into scripted or command-line workflows, and it also integrates directly with the Windows Explorer right-click menu, allowing files and folders to be sent into the vault without leaving the file manager. Among its features are import templates, which help standardize how incoming content is organized, and a watch mode that monitors designated locations so new material can be imported automatically as it appears. Configuration is handled through a text-based user interface (TUI) settings system, offering a keyboard-driven way to adjust behavior without editing configuration files by hand. KBIntake also provides integration with Obsidian, positioning it within the note-taking and personal knowledge management category, where it serves users who build their vaults around Markdown-based note systems. Typical use cases include researchers collecting reference material, writers gathering drafts and clippings, and knowledge workers routing downloads and documents into an organized vault on a recurring basis. The current version is 2.1.1, and the catalog records two versions of the software overall, indicating that an earlier release preceded the present build. Because it runs locally and targets the Windows platform, KBIntake suits users who prefer their knowledge-base data to remain on their own machines while still benefiting from automated, template-driven import workflows and convenient shell-level integration.
