SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Writing notes for Obsidian requires knowledge of its extended Markdown syntax, and using incorrect wikilink, embed, callout, or frontmatter syntax produces notes that fail to render or link properly in the vault. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Wikilinks and Embeds: Create internal links with [[Note]] syntax, heading and block references, and embed notes, images, PDFs, and audio inline. - Callouts and Properties: Add foldable callouts with > [!type] syntax and structured YAML frontmatter with tags, aliases, and custom properties. - Extended Syntax: Use Obsidian-specific features like comments, highlights, LaTeX math, Mermaid diagrams, footnotes, and nested tags. - Use Case: When drafting a project note in an Obsidian vault, generate a complete document with frontmatter properties, task lists, links to related notes, embedded diagrams, and highlighted callouts that render correctly in reading view. ## Quick Start Create an Obsidian note about my project with frontmatter tags, a warning callout for the deadline, and a wikilink to my meeting notes.

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 in Obsidian notes?▼

Use wikilink syntax with double brackets like [[Note Name]] to link between notes in your 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 add callouts in Obsidian Markdown?▼

Write a blockquote starting with > [!type] where type is note, tip, warning, info, or another supported type. Add a custom title after the type, and use a minus sign for collapsed-by-default or plus for expanded foldable callouts.

What frontmatter properties does Obsidian support?▼

Obsidian supports YAML frontmatter with text, number, checkbox, date, datetime, list, and link property types. Default properties include tags for searchable labels, aliases for alternative note names, and cssclasses for custom styling.

Should I use wikilinks or Markdown links in Obsidian?▼

Use wikilinks ([[Note]]) for notes within your vault because Obsidian automatically updates them when files are renamed. Reserve standard Markdown links ([text](url)) for external URLs only.

Can Obsidian embed PDFs and images in notes?▼

Yes, prefix any wikilink with an exclamation mark to embed content, such as ![[image.png|300]] for resized images or ![[document.pdf#page=3]] for specific PDF pages. Audio files and search query results can also be embedded.
