SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Obsidian vaults are ordinary folders with many interlinked Markdown notes, and manually finding the active vault, searching content, or safely refactoring note paths is error prone and time consuming; this Skill automates those common vault operations so you can manage notes reliably.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Resolve active vaults by reading the Obsidian config to determine which vaults are open and where their files live.
  • Search and inspect notes across titles and content to quickly locate relevant Markdown files.
  • Safe refactor operations such as moving or renaming notes while updating wikilinks and Markdown links.
  • Create and delete notes via obsidian-cli when scripting note management workflows.
  • Use Case: Consolidate notes from multiple vaults by locating the default vault, moving matched notes into a target folder, and ensuring internal links remain valid.

Quick Start

Set the default vault and search it for notes containing "deployment" then return the titles and full paths of matching notes.
