What problem does it solve?

This Skill gives agents reliable access to a user's Obsidian notebook vault so they can locate, create, and edit notes using Obsidian-flavored Markdown while preserving vault structure and organization.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Vault Access Paths: Operates in sandbox (/mnt/notebook) or host mounts ($MOUNT_NOTEBOOK) to read and write files.
• Obsidian-Flavored Markdown: Supports CommonMark, GitHub Flavored Markdown, LaTeX math, wikilinks, callouts, and file embeds.
• Organized Note Management: Encourages exploring the existing folder hierarchy before creating new notes to maintain a tidy vault and appropriate placement.
• Use Case: Create or update project documentation and meeting notes with wikilinks and embedded files in the correct project folder, preserving backlinks and Obsidian conventions.

Quick Start

Use the notebook skill to open the vault, find the best folder for a new note titled "Meeting Notes", and create an Obsidian-compatible markdown file there.
