Does this skill support Obsidian formulas?

Absolutely. It can generate formulas for arithmetic, conditional logic (if/then), date formatting, and string manipulation within your Base views.

What is an Obsidian Base file?

An Obsidian Base (.base) is a YAML-configured file used by the Obsidian Bases plugin to create dynamic, database-like views (such as tables or cards) of notes based on their metadata.

What view types can be generated with this skill?

Claude can configure Table, Cards, List, and Map views. Note that Map views typically require the corresponding Obsidian Maps plugin to be installed.

Can Claude Code create complex filters for my notes?

Yes, this skill allows Claude to write sophisticated, recursive filters using AND, OR, and NOT logic to isolate specific sets of notes based on tags, folders, or properties.
