SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Writing notes for Obsidian requires syntax beyond standard Markdown—wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties, and comments—and using the wrong syntax produces broken links or unrendered content in the vault. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Wikilinks and Embeds: Create internal note links with heading and block references, and embed notes, images, PDFs, audio, and search results using ![[...]] syntax. - Callouts and Properties: Add foldable, nested callouts of 13 supported types and define YAML frontmatter properties like tags, aliases, and cssclasses. - Use Case: When drafting a project note in an Obsidian vault, generate valid frontmatter, link to related notes with [[Note#Heading]], highlight key deadlines in a warning callout, and embed an architecture diagram with a set width. ## Quick Start Create an Obsidian note for my project with frontmatter tags, a link to my meeting notes, an embedded diagram, and a warning callout for the deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions about obsidian-markdown

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create wikilinks in Obsidian Markdown?▼

Wikilinks use double brackets like [[Note Name]] to link notes within a vault. Add a pipe for custom display text ([[Note|Text]]), a hash for headings ([[Note#Heading]]), or a caret for block references ([[Note#^block-id]]).

How do I embed images and PDFs in Obsidian notes?▼

Prefix any wikilink with an exclamation mark to embed content, such as ![[image.png]] or ![[document.pdf#page=3]]. Images support sizing with ![[image.png|300]] for width or ![[image.png|640x480]] for exact dimensions.

What callout types does Obsidian support?▼

Obsidian supports 13 callout types including note, tip, warning, info, example, quote, bug, danger, success, failure, question, abstract, and todo, many with aliases. Callouts can be foldable with - or + suffixes and can be nested.

Should I use wikilinks or Markdown links in Obsidian?▼

Use [[wikilinks]] for notes within the vault because Obsidian tracks renames automatically and updates all references. Use standard [text](url) Markdown links only for external URLs outside the vault.

What characters are allowed in Obsidian tags?▼

Obsidian tags can contain letters in any language, numbers (not as the first character), underscores, hyphens, and forward slashes for nesting like #nested/tag. Tags work both inline in text and in frontmatter under the tags property.
