FAQPage Schema
How do I find my active Obsidian vault path without guessing?

Obsidian vault discovery reads the desktop vault registry to automatically locate active or default vaults on disk, eliminating manual path guessing and configuration hunting for note operations.

How do I move Markdown notes and automatically update wikilinks?

Moving Markdown notes with safe refactoring automatically detects and rewrites wikilinks and standard Markdown links during file movements or renames, preserving knowledge base integrity without manual edits.

Can I search note content across multiple Obsidian vaults from the CLI?

Searching note content across multiple Obsidian vaults is supported by discovering each vault from the desktop registry and executing targeted content searches via obsidian-cli to locate specific text within Markdown files.

Does obsidian-cli work with standard Markdown knowledge bases or only Obsidian?

obsidian-cli applies to standard Markdown knowledge bases and multi-vault setups, while specifically leveraging Obsidian's desktop vault registry to perform safe, link-aware file operations on disk.

What are the limitations of using CLI to manage Obsidian vaults?

CLI management of Obsidian vaults requires access to Obsidian's desktop vault registry and obsidian-cli, limiting usage to desktop environments where the vault configuration is locally accessible.
