Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00068 | $0.00695 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00027 | $0.00278 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00014 | $0.00139 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00069 |
Grade A, and why
obsidian-graph-navigator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 56 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Obsidian Graph Navigator
Purpose
Traverse the project vault through indexes and wikilinks, then return the smallest set of notes that answers the current task. Do not load the whole vault when a focused path is available.
Navigation request
- Read
references/graph-navigation.md. - Identify the active task type (intake, research, architecture, decomposition, implementation, QA, review, security, ops, post-launch).
- Open
00-home.mdin the project vault as the MOC entrypoint. Pull the relevant phase MOC links (Intake, Discovery, Product flow, Architecture, Delivery, Quality, Existing product). - Verify the vault layout exists; if missing, route to
documentation-graph-curatorto seed it.
Graph traversal
- Pick the phase MOC matching the task type.
- Walk wikilinks one hop out from the MOC; collect notes whose frontmatter
typematches the current artifact need. - For each candidate, read only the section that matches the current goal (frontmatter + first heading), not the whole file. Defer deep reads until proven necessary.
- Filter via frontmatter properties:
status,phase,service,owners,depends_on,risk_level,updated_at. Reject stale notes (older than relevant cutoff) unless they hold an active ADR or unresolved risk. - Build a reading order: dependencies first (e.g.,
08-product-scopebefore11-functional-requirements), then current artifact, then related ADRs and risk entries. - Emit the reading list and stop. Hand the list (paths + sections) to the requesting skill instead of reading everything into the parent context.
Context limits
- Use Context7 MCP only if a referenced external doc must be re-validated.
- Keep a decision trace: which MOC pages were walked, which links were followed, which notes were filtered out and why.
- Never reload a note already in context; reuse it.
- Never silently widen the reading set beyond the requesting skill's need.
Reading set
- Ordered reading list with file paths, section anchors, and frontmatter snapshot
- Filtered-out list with reason (stale, off-phase, wrong service, unrelated)
- Open ADRs and risks intersecting the task
- Graph hygiene flags (broken wikilinks, missing frontmatter, drifted properties)
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

obsidian-graph-navigator is a skill published in the GitHub repository ashermahonin/agentic-skills (10 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 68 tokens to every session and 695 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
