FAQPage Schema
How do I test a local development build of an Obsidian plugin?▼

You can test a local development build by swapping the Obsidian Brain plugin cache with the development version. Run the /dev-test install command and start a new Claude Code session to apply the changes.

How do I restore the original Obsidian plugin after testing a dev build?▼

To restore the original Obsidian plugin after testing, use the /dev-test restore command. This swaps the development version out of the plugin cache and returns the environment to its stable state.

Can I check the current dev test status within a Claude Code session?▼

Yes, you can check the current dev test status by running the /dev-test command within a Claude Code session. This reports whether the development version or the original plugin is currently active in the cache.

Does the local testing workflow require any specific dependencies?▼

The local testing workflow relies on a Bash-based environment and the scripts/test-dev-skill.sh helper script. It has no other dependencies and performs install, restore, and status operations from the repository root.

Why is my dev plugin build not applying in new sessions?▼

Development plugin builds require a new Claude Code session to apply the cache swap. If you run /dev-test install without restarting the session, the original Obsidian Brain plugin remains active instead of the dev version.
