Supports Alfred 4 on macOS 10.7+ on Obsidian 0.8.15 and 0.9.1.

• Checks to see if there is already a breadcrumb in the file. If there is not, it will append the breadcrumb and header to the note.
• Opens the Obsidian app.

This workflow does the following:

• Checks to see if you have a breadcrumb, if not;
• Appends a breadcrumb and "h2 date" to the top of the daily note in the follow format:

[[YYYY-MM-DD-1day]] | [[YYYY-MM-DD+1day]] > ## h2 Day of week, MM DD YYYY
