SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Writing notes for Obsidian requires syntax beyond standard Markdown—wikilinks, embeds, callouts, block IDs, and YAML properties—and getting these wrong breaks links, graph connections, and note rendering inside a vault. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Wikilinks & Embeds: Create internal links with aliases, heading and block references, and embed notes, sections, or images using [[...]] and ![[...]] syntax. - Properties & Tags: Write valid YAML frontmatter with correctly typed properties (text, list, number, checkbox, date) and inline or frontmatter tags including nested hierarchies. - Callouts, Math & Diagrams: Add foldable callouts of all supported types, LaTeX math blocks, Mermaid diagrams, block IDs, and hidden comments. - Use Case: When reorganizing an Obsidian vault, ask the assistant to convert a set of plain Markdown notes into properly linked Obsidian notes with frontmatter tags, wikilinks between related concepts, and callout boxes for warnings. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to create an Obsidian note with frontmatter tags, wikilinks to related notes, and a warning callout.

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]], with optional aliases via [[Note Name|Display Text]]. You can also link to headings with [[Note Name#Heading]] or to specific blocks with [[Note Name^block-id]].

How do I add frontmatter properties to an Obsidian note?▼

Frontmatter is a YAML block between --- delimiters at the top of the file, defining properties like title, tags, date, and status. Supported types include text, list, number, checkbox, date (YYYY-MM-DD), and datetime, and strings with colons must be quoted.

What callout types does Obsidian support?▼

Obsidian supports callout types including note, tip, info, warning, danger, success, question, quote, abstract, bug, example, todo, and failure. Adding + after the type makes it expanded by default, while - makes it collapsed.

Can I embed images and other notes in Obsidian Markdown?▼

Yes, prefix a wikilink with an exclamation mark to embed content: ![[Note Name]] embeds a full note, ![[Note Name#Heading]] embeds a section, and ![[image.png]] embeds an image or file.

Why are my Obsidian tags not recognized?▼

Tags must start with a letter and may contain letters, numbers, hyphens, underscores, and slashes for nesting. For multiple tags, prefer the frontmatter form tags: [tag1, tag2] over scattered inline tags.
