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 the ![[embed]] 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 with tags, link to related meeting notes with [[Note#Heading]], embed an architecture diagram at a set width, and highlight deadlines in a warning callout. ## 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 internal links between Obsidian notes?▼

Use wikilinks with double brackets, such as [[Note Name]], to link notes within a vault. You can add custom display text with [[Note Name|Display Text]], link to headings with [[Note#Heading]], or link to blocks using [[Note#^block-id]].

How do I embed images or PDFs in an Obsidian note?▼

Prefix a wikilink with an exclamation mark, like ![[image.png]] or ![[document.pdf#page=3]], to embed content inline. Images support sizing with ![[image.png|300]] for width or ![[image.png|640x480]] for width and height.

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 like hint or caution. Callouts can be foldable with - or + suffixes and can be nested.

When should I use wikilinks versus Markdown links in Obsidian?▼

Use [[wikilinks]] for notes within the vault because Obsidian tracks renames automatically and updates links. 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 can be written inline or defined in frontmatter under the tags property.
