Chat with Claude inside Obsidian to search and edit notes

Embeds Claude as a persistent assistant inside your Obsidian sidebar to read, write, and search notes directly. Adds semantic vault search and SQL queries over note metadata, replacing manual Dataview setup and keyword-only search. Persists conversations across sessions and auto-loads custom skills, so recurring note workflows run from plain-English requests.
npx skills add Roasbeef/obsidian-claude-code --all -g -y
Available:

Gives the agent the plugin's architecture, Obsidian-specific tool list, authentication options, and environment rules so it can operate correctly inside the vault.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQPage Schema
How to install obsidian-claude-code?โ–ผ

Run `npx skills add Roasbeef/obsidian-claude-code --all -g -y` in your terminal to install the skills globally, then enable the plugin in Obsidian under Settings > Community Plugins.

How to search Obsidian notes by meaning?โ–ผ

The included vault-search skill indexes your notes with local vector embeddings, letting you ask for notes about a topic in plain language instead of exact keywords.

Can Claude edit my Obsidian notes directly?โ–ผ

Yes. Claude gets Read, Write, Edit, Bash, and Grep access plus Obsidian-specific actions like opening files, creating notes, and running commands, with a permission prompt before writes.

Do I need an API key to use this plugin?โ–ผ

You need either an Anthropic API key or a Claude Max subscription. The subscription option works by running `claude setup-token` to create an OAuth token the plugin detects.

Does obsidian-claude-code work on mobile?โ–ผ

No. It is desktop-only because the Claude Agent SDK requires Node.js, which is available in Obsidian's desktop Electron environment but not on mobile.
