Because lat gives agents more tools and enforces the workflow.

Unlike obsidian, lat allows markdown files link into functions/structs/classes/etc too.

This saves agents time on grepping but also allows you to build better workflows with tests.

Test cases can be described as sections in `lat.md/` and marked with `require-code-mention: true`. Each spec then must be referenced by a `// @lat:` comment in test code. `lat check` flags any spec without a backlink, so you can review and maintain test coverage from the knowledge graph.

This is interesting. I've been using a system-wide Obsidian vault that all my agents use for stuff that's platform-specific instead of project specific (think common Android/Samsung-related or ANR fixes). So far, it hasn't been mind-blowing but it's only been a month so its knowledge from there is also limited.

lat seems like it could be useful to cross-reference company-wide projects.
