SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents broken vault navigation and formatting by guiding you to use Obsidian-specific Markdown features correctly within the OS vault.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Internal linking (wikilinks): Use [[Note]] syntax for rename-safe, bidirectional-style navigation inside the vault.
  • Embeds & transclusion: Use ![[Note]] to inline content (including headings, block IDs, images, PDFs, audio, and more) where appropriate.
  • Obsidian UI primitives: Apply callouts (> [!type]), properties (YAML frontmatter), tags (#tag), comments (%% %%), highlights (== ==), and diagrams (mermaid).
  • Vault hygiene & integration: Follow EOS backlink/linking rules and run the backlink audit script when needed to maintain link health.

Quick Start

Ask me to create a new vault note in /opt/OS/knowledge named "Project Alpha" with YAML frontmatter, wikilinks to related notes, an ![[embed]] section, and a properly formatted callout for key deadlines.

Frequently Asked Questions about obsidian_markdown

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write Obsidian Markdown with correct wikilinks and YAML frontmatter?▼

To write Obsidian Markdown correctly, structure notes with YAML frontmatter properties first, then use [[wikilinks]] for internal navigation and ![[embeds]] for transclusion to maintain vault consistency.

What is the best way to create Obsidian callouts and embeds in my knowledge base?▼

Creating Obsidian callouts and embeds involves using specific syntax like > [!type] for callouts and ![[Note]] for inline transclusion of headings, block IDs, and media files within your knowledge base.

How do I use frontmatter properties and tags in Obsidian markdown notes?▼

Using frontmatter properties requires placing YAML metadata at the top of the markdown note, while tags can be applied inline using #tag syntax to ensure proper categorization and filtering in Obsidian.

Why are my Obsidian wikilinks breaking and how do I fix vault navigation?▼

Broken Obsidian wikilinks happen when standard markdown links replace [[wikilinks]], causing navigation failures; fixing this requires updating syntax and running a backlink audit script to restore link health.

Can I use standard markdown syntax instead of wikilinks for internal vault navigation?▼

Standard markdown links are not recommended for internal vault navigation because they lack bidirectional linking and rename-safety, whereas [[wikilinks]] ensure consistent backlinks and structural integrity.

Does Obsidian markdown support block IDs and mermaid diagrams for knowledge base notes?▼

Obsidian markdown supports block IDs for granular linking and mermaid code blocks for rendering diagrams, allowing complex knowledge base notes to integrate visual and structural data natively.
