entity-schema-manager

To validate frontmatter in Obsidian, you use the Entity Schema Manager to check note properties against defined entity schemas, ensuring consistency across your vault by verifying that structured data fields match expected types and constraints.

Generating entity templates for Obsidian notes is best handled by querying defined entity schemas to produce structured frontmatter automatically, creating consistent note scaffolds based on specific entity types configured within your vault.

Yes, you can manage Obsidian entity schemas without the plugin API by using a vault-level entity-schemas.json file as a fallback, allowing file-based workflows to define and read schemas directly from the vault directory.

You query existing entity types in an Obsidian vault by leveraging the Entity Schema Manager API or entity-schemas.json fallback to scan and search the index, enabling programmatic access to locate structured notes and defined references.

No, you do not need the plugin active to use file-based schema workflows if you have a vault-level entity-schemas.json file, as the system reads schemas from this fallback to enable templating and validation directly.
