What problem does it solve?

This skill rewrites Obsidian's graph.json colorGroups so the graph view tints nodes by tag, folder, or visibility, helping you visually distinguish vault structure at a glance while preserving existing settings.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Color by tag: generate color groups from the top tags used in your vault and apply distinct colors.
  • Color by category/folder: color nodes by top-level folders (concepts, entities, skills, references, synthesis, projects, journal) to reflect your vault's organization.
  • Safe merging & backups: backs up the current graph.json and merges the new colorGroups without clobbering other graph settings, ensuring you can revert if needed.
  • Use Case: you want the graph to clearly differentiate concepts by tag and folder for quick navigation during knowledge-building sessions.

Quick Start

Run the colorize operation to generate colorGroups from your vault and update .obsidian/graph.json.
