obsidianWork with Obsidian vaults (plain Markdown notes) and automate via obsidian-cli.
Install via ClawdBot CLI:
clawdbot install steipete/obsidianInstall obsidian-cli (brew):
brew install yakitrak/yakitrak/obsidian-cliRequires:
Obsidian vault = a normal folder on disk.
Vault structure (typical)
*.md (plain text Markdown; edit with any editor).obsidian/ (workspace + plugin settings; usually don’t touch from scripts)*.canvas (JSON)Obsidian desktop tracks vaults here (source of truth):
~/Library/Application Support/obsidian/obsidian.jsonobsidian-cli resolves vaults from that file; vault name is typically the folder name (path suffix).
Fast “what vault is active / where are the notes?”
obsidian-cli print-default --path-only~/Library/Application Support/obsidian/obsidian.json and use the vault entry with "open": true.Notes
~/Documents, work/personal, etc.). Don’t guess; read config.print-default.Pick a default vault (once):
obsidian-cli set-default "" obsidian-cli print-default / obsidian-cli print-default --path-onlySearch
obsidian-cli search "query" (note names)obsidian-cli search-content "query" (inside notes; shows snippets + lines)Create
obsidian-cli create "Folder/New note" --content "..." --openobsidian://…) working (Obsidian installed)..something/...) via URI; Obsidian may refuse.Move/rename (safe refactor)
obsidian-cli move "old/path/note" "new/path/note"[[wikilinks]] and common Markdown links across the vault (this is the main win vs mv).Delete
obsidian-cli delete "path/note"Prefer direct edits when appropriate: open the .md file and change it; Obsidian will pick it up.

Researchers can use the Obsidian skill to automatically organize and link new notes from literature reviews or experiments. By reading the active vault config, scripts can create notes in the correct folder and update wikilinks, ensuring a consistent knowledge base without manual file handling.
Writers and content creators can automate the creation and structuring of draft notes for articles or books. The skill allows searching existing content, moving notes to reorganize projects, and updating links, streamlining the editorial process within Obsidian vaults.
Software development teams can integrate this skill into CI/CD pipelines to automatically update project documentation in Obsidian. It can create release notes, move outdated files, and ensure all wikilinks are current, keeping documentation aligned with code changes.
Individuals managing personal knowledge systems can use the skill to automate routine tasks like cleaning up old notes, searching for specific information across vaults, and safely renaming files without breaking links, enhancing productivity in note-taking workflows.
Offer a free version with basic note creation and search features, and a paid tier for advanced automation like bulk moving, link updating, and integration with external APIs. Revenue comes from subscription fees for power users and teams needing enhanced vault management.
Provide services to businesses for integrating the Obsidian skill into their existing workflows, such as setting up automated documentation systems or custom scripts for specific industries. Revenue is generated through project-based fees and ongoing support contracts.
Develop and sell specialized extensions or plugins that enhance the Obsidian skill, such as templates for specific industries or advanced search algorithms. Revenue comes from one-time purchases or licensing fees for these add-ons within a marketplace ecosystem.
💬 Integration Tip
Always read the active vault config from Obsidian's JSON file to avoid hardcoded paths, and use obsidian-cli commands like move for safe file operations that update wikilinks automatically.

Track water and sleep with JSON file storage
Notion API for creating and managing pages, databases, and blocks.
Smart ClawdBot documentation access with local search index, cached snippets, and on-demand fetch. Token-efficient and freshness-aware.
Work with Obsidian vaults as a knowledge base. Features: fuzzy/phonetic search across all notes, auto-folder detection for new notes, create/read/edit notes with frontmatter, manage tags and wikilinks. Use when: querying knowledge base, saving notes/documents, editing existing notes by user instructions.
Organize your agent's knowledge using PARA (Projects, Areas, Resources, Archive) — then make it ALL searchable. The symlink trick enables full semantic search across your entire knowledge base, not just MEMORY.md. Includes session transcript indexing and memory flush protocol. Your agent finally has a real second brain.
