Obsidian FAQs

Question 1

What kind of Obsidian vault operations does it support?

Accepted Answer

It exposes 41 tools for comprehensive interaction, including managing files, folders, search, daily notes, tags, tasks, properties, links, bookmarks, and executing Obsidian commands directly.

Question 2

Why is HTTP mode required for macOS users?

Accepted Answer

Claude Code on macOS runs in a sandbox that blocks XPC communication, which the Obsidian CLI requires. HTTP mode runs the server outside this sandbox, enabling full functionality by connecting over HTTP.

Question 3

What is the Obsidian MCP Server?

Accepted Answer

It's an MCP (Multi-Component Protocol) server that wraps the Obsidian CLI, allowing Claude Code to seamlessly interact with your Obsidian vaults by exposing 41 tools for comprehensive vault management.

Question 4

Are there any runtime dependencies for this server?

Accepted Answer

No, once built, it's a single static Go binary with zero runtime dependencies. You only need Go 1.24+ and Obsidian 1.12+ with the CLI enabled during installation.

Question 5

How do I install and use it with Claude Code?

Accepted Answer

First, build the Go binary from the source. Then, run the server in HTTP mode (recommended, required for macOS) in a separate terminal. Finally, register it with Claude Code using the `claude mcp add` command.
