What problem does it solve?

Manually installing an Obsidian community plugin that is not in the official registry requires locating the correct vault, creating the plugin folder, and copying the right files, which is error-prone for users unfamiliar with Obsidian's plugin directory structure.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided Vault Confirmation: Confirms the target Obsidian vault path and write permissions before making any changes, defaulting to the current working directory.
  • Automated File Deployment: Creates the .obsidian/plugins/claudian directory and copies the bundled main.js, manifest.json, and styles.css files for Claudian version 2.0.2.
  • Activation Guidance: Walks the user through enabling the plugin in Obsidian's Community plugins settings after installation.
  • Use Case: A user wants Claude Code embedded as an AI collaborator inside their Obsidian vault with file read/write, search, and bash capabilities, and asks the agent to install the Claudian plugin into their notes vault.

Quick Start

Install the Claudian plugin into my Obsidian vault at the current directory and tell me how to enable it.

FAQPage Schema
How do I install the Claudian plugin in Obsidian?

Confirm your vault path, create the .obsidian/plugins/claudian directory, and copy the bundled main.js, manifest.json, and styles.css files into it. Then open Obsidian, go to Settings, Community plugins, find Claudian, and enable it.

What does the Claudian Obsidian plugin do?

Claudian embeds Claude Code as an AI collaborator inside your Obsidian vault. Your vault becomes Claude's working directory, giving it agentic capabilities including file read/write, search, bash commands, and multi-step workflows.

Which version of Claudian is bundled with this installer?

The bundled Claudian version is 2.0.2, as declared in both the skill documentation and the plugin's manifest.json. The manifest requires a minimum Obsidian app version of 1.4.5.

Does Claudian work on mobile Obsidian?

No. The plugin manifest sets isDesktopOnly to true, so Claudian only runs on desktop Obsidian installations and cannot be enabled on mobile devices.

Why is Claudian not showing up after copying the plugin files?

The plugin must be manually enabled after installation. Open Obsidian, navigate to Settings, then Community plugins, locate Claudian in the installed plugins list, and toggle it on. Also verify the files are in .obsidian/plugins/claudian.
