Flywheel FAQs

Question 1

What is Flywheel and how does it work with Obsidian?

Accepted Answer

Flywheel converts your Obsidian vault into a dynamic, queryable knowledge graph. It enables AI agents, particularly those using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) like Claude, to efficiently search, query, and manage your notes through a set of 36 specialized tools, rather than scanning raw files.

Question 2

Does Flywheel require any cloud services or API keys?

Accepted Answer

No, Flywheel is a local-first solution designed for privacy and control. It operates entirely on your machine with zero cloud dependencies, API keys, or complex configurations. Your knowledge graph index resides locally within your vault.

Question 3

How does Flywheel enhance AI agent interaction with my Obsidian notes?

Accepted Answer

Instead of raw file access, Flywheel provides AI agents with a structured, indexed knowledge graph. This allows agents to use specific tools to 'understand' note relationships, quickly find relevant information, identify overdue items, and auto-wikilink new content, leading to more intelligent and context-aware responses.

Question 4

What is the 'Flywheel Effect'?

Accepted Answer

The 'Flywheel Effect' describes how every interaction with your vault via Flywheel (AI reading or writing notes) continuously strengthens your knowledge graph. Automated linking and structured data lead to richer queries, better discovery, and increasing intelligence within your personal knowledge system without manual effort.

Question 5

What are the main benefits of using Flywheel for my notes?

Accepted Answer

Flywheel drastically improves note management by offering faster, more precise queries, automated wikilinking with alias resolution, bidirectional backlink navigation, schema intelligence, and efficient full-text search. It significantly reduces token costs and speeds up AI interactions with your vault.
