Can I use fuzzy matching to open notes in Obsidian without typing the exact file name?▼

Yes, you can open today's daily note in Obsidian from a code environment by using a custom URI scheme skill that supports direct access to daily notes based on the current date, instantly opening the daily journal entry.

Why does opening Obsidian notes from an AI assistant require disabling sandbox mode?▼
