Can I target a specific vault if I have multiple?

Yes, the CLI supports multi-vault targeting by specifying the vault name as the first argument in the command string.

Can I run JavaScript against the Obsidian API with this skill?

Yes, the skill includes an 'eval' command that allows you to execute arbitrary JavaScript against the internal Obsidian 'app' object.

Does Obsidian need to be running for this skill to work?

Yes, the Obsidian desktop application (v1.12.0 or higher) must be running because the CLI communicates with the active instance via Inter-Process Communication (IPC).

How are file paths handled in commands?

All paths are vault-relative (e.g., 'folder/note.md'). The CLI handles the translation to your local filesystem automatically.

Does this skill support Obsidian Sync features?

Yes, it includes commands for checking sync health, viewing version history, and restoring files from Obsidian Sync or local file recovery.

Manages Obsidian vaults directly through Claude Code using terminal commands for note operations, metadata management, and task tracking.

The Obsidian CLI skill empowers Claude to interface directly with local Obsidian vaults using the official command-line interface released in v1.12. It provides comprehensive control over vault data, allowing the AI to read, create, and modify notes, manage frontmatter properties, track tasks, and query the new Obsidian Bases database feature. This skill is essential for users looking to automate personal knowledge management workflows, generate automated daily reports, and perform complex graph analysis or file recovery operations without leaving the Claude Code terminal environment.
