obsidian
This skill enables automation of Obsidian markdown vaults using obsidian-cli, allowing you to search notes, create and move files while automatically updating wikilinks, delete notes, and manage multiple vaults through configuration files. Use it when building workflows that need to query, organize, or modify Obsidian knowledge bases without manual vault setup or when you need link refactoring that preserves internal references across note collections.

# Obsidian Obsidian vault = a normal folder on disk. Vault structure (typical) - Notes: `*.md` (plain text Markdown; edit with any editor) - Config: `.obsidian/` (workspace + plugin settings; usually don’t touch from scripts) - Canvases: `*.canvas` (JSON) - Attachments: whatever folder you chose in Obsidian settings (images/PDFs/etc.) ## Find the active vault(s) Obsidian desktop tracks vaults here (source of truth): - `~/Library/Application Support/obsidian/obsidian.json` `obsidian-cli` resolves vaults from that file; vault name is typically the **folder name** (path suffix). Fast “what vault is active / where are the notes?” - If you’ve already set a default: `obsidian-cli print-default --path-only` - Otherwise, read `~/Library/Application Support/obsidian/obsidian.json` and use the vault entry with `"open": true`. Notes - Multiple vaults common (iCloud vs `~/Documents`, work/personal, etc.). Don’t guess; read config. - Avoid writing hardcoded vault paths into scripts; prefer reading the config or using `print-default`. ## obsidian-cli quick start Pick a default vault (once): - `obsidian-cli set-default "<vault-folder-name>"` - `obsidian-cli print-default` / `obsidian-cli print-default --path-only` Search - `obsidian-cli search "query"` (note names) - `obsidian-cli search-content "query"` (inside notes; shows snippets + lines) Create - `obsidian-cli create "Folder/New note" --content "..." --open` - Requires Obsidian URI handler (`obsidian://…`) working (Obsidian installed). - Avoid creating notes under “hidden” dot-folders (e.g. `.something/...`) via URI; Obsidian may refuse. Move/rename (safe refactor) - `obsidian-cli move "old/path/note" "new/path/note"` - Updates `[[wikilinks]]` and common Markdown links across the vault (this is the main win vs `mv`). Delete - `obsidian-cli delete "path/note"` Prefer direct edits when appropriate: open the `.md` file and change it; Obsidian will pick it up.
Set up and use 1Password CLI (op). Use when installing the CLI, enabling desktop app integration, signing in (single or multi-account), or reading/injecting/running secrets via op.
