User: i don't see no open note
Assistant: Let me check the right way to open it:Should be open now — [[Notes/Acoustics and Psychoacoustics by Angus.md]]. The first attempt used the wrong syntax (`path=` instead of `file=`).

User: good. but there is another obsidian window running. can open it in there?
### Assistant
Let me check what windows and tabs Obsidian has open:
### Assistant
I see — the main window has your daily note, and there's a floating Claudian window. The `open` command is probably targeting the active leaf (Claudian view). Let me open the note as a new tab in the main window:
### Assistant
Hmm, that might have opened it in the floating window since Claudian is the active leaf. Let me target the main window specifically:
### Assistant
That should have opened [[Notes/Acoustics and Psychoacoustics by Angus.md]] as a new tab next to your daily note in the main window. Can you see it there now?
