SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires sharp, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill reduces large image file sizes and converts images into web-friendly formats to meet platform upload limits and keep Obsidian vaults tidy without manual re-exporting.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automatic engine detection: Chooses the fastest available compressor on the system (sips, cwebp, ImageMagick convert) and falls back to Sharp when needed.
  • Web-focused defaults: Produces JPEG at 65 quality by default for <1MB target outputs and supports webp and png formats.
  • Vault-safe archival: Replaces or compresses files and archives originals into Archive/Original-Images to avoid cluttering Assets/.
  • Batch and automation: Handles single files or directories recursively, supports JSON output for integration into pipelines, and offers quality and format options for publishing workflows.
  • Use Case: Prepare an Obsidian Assets folder for publishing by batch-compressing generated AI images into optimized JPEGs while preserving originals in an archive.

Quick Start

Compress the file Assets/cover-draft.png to a 65-quality JPEG and move the original into Archive/Original-Images.

FAQPage Schema
How do I batch compress images in an Obsidian assets folder for web publishing?▼

Batch compress images in an Obsidian assets folder by processing directories recursively to output web-friendly JPEG, WebP, or PNG formats while archiving originals into Archive/Original-Images.

What is the best way to reduce image file size to meet platform upload limits?▼

Reduce image file size to meet platform upload limits by applying default JPEG compression at 65 quality, which targets outputs under 1MB without manual re-exporting.

Does sharp work with JPEG, WebP, and PNG outputs for vault workflows?▼

Sharp works with JPEG, WebP, and PNG outputs for vault workflows by acting as a fallback compressor when native system tools like sips, cwebp, or ImageMagick convert are unavailable.

Can I automate image compression and generate JSON reports for publishing pipelines?▼

Automate image compression and generate JSON reports for publishing pipelines by processing single files or directories recursively with supported quality and format options.

How do I preserve original images when compressing files in an Obsidian vault?▼

Preserve original images when compressing files in an Obsidian vault through vault-safe archival, which automatically moves uncompressed originals into Archive/Original-Images to avoid cluttering Assets/.
