+
+This plugin packages a few UltiSnips snippets out of the box. These facilitate
+creating Quarto front matter with a date and title, callout blocks (as per the
+Quarto documentation), and fenced code blocks that Quarto will execute.
+
+If you use UltiSnips and would not like these, create a file called
+`mbnotes.snippets` in your snippets directory, and include a line: >snippets
+
+    clearsnippets
+
+The snippets vended by this plugin are at priority -1, so should be cleared by
+a default priority instruction. Furthermore, any of these snippets can be very
+easily overwritten. See the `priority` keyword in |ultisnips-basic-syntax| for
+more information.
