Summarize months of notes in Logseq via CLI agent
Documented elsewhere: wosk pasted the Logseq CLI documentation, installed alongside Logseq, to Codex, which then knew how to query the graph. It condenses journals across months and works with tagged pages such as job applications (with status values) and research projects. Codex can summarize months of journals, and tagged blocks make queries natural.
