What am I doing in Logos?

I am really keen to learn how others design their workflows, so please post away your use case and which apps, if any, you use alongside Logos. This thread has caused me to set a goal to relook at my workflows in Logos this Christmas season and I will endeavour to map out how I use Logos and how it forms part of my overall workflows and PKM.
In the meantime, here's another brief diagram that I noticed online. I would replace Craft with Obsidian as my knowledge processor and Pocket with Raindrop as my bookmark manager.
Logos and Readwise sit alongside each other. I use Logos to leverage my concentration of high quality resources to make clippings and create intermediate conclusions, then the best way I can describe Readwise as is a gold pan in which I carefully put stuff from the internet into to sift for gold to compliment my theological studies. Webpages, PDFs, Videos, Tweets, RSS blogs, etc., stuff that will never be in Logos. The AI in readwise is outstanding and I love it that it transcribes videos for me... but this is not a promotion of Readwise Reader, but the concept of research tools that compliment what Logos does so very well.
This is merged with Kindle clippings to form atomic notes to go into my Zettlekasten system in Obsidian. This is why I and I think so many other Logosians would like to have Logos interoperability with Readwise. My kludge is to export Logos clippings manually into RTF, then convert to mark down in Obsidian. This misses out on the spaced repetition features of Readwise, so that is another gap. I use Anki to do this and also for other elements of spaced repetition from Logos, particularly in language studies to stay sharp in my Greek paradigms, etc
The exception to this is that I still use Logos for 'classic Bible study' to unpack the scriptures and study original languages. This is where I use the note taking feature and a 'Papers' function would be so useful. However, when something emerges within those studies that I want to bring into my atomic note system, I will copy and paste and create deep links. This is why I would like for Logos to be compatible with deep link system design and be able to leverage an app like HookMark. Currently they are one direction and not bi-directional!
Anyhow, maybe in the new year I can post how this all works for me. My hope is to learn from others, particularly in any developments of how to really use the tools within Logos even better. In the past couple of years I have focused more on the linking and pulling in of other apps to form my overall research and knowledge system.

Donovan, I would personally love to see you return and report on this - or perhaps put together a youtube video showing your workflow, your experiences, and takeaways/lessons learned.
