obsidianos_work: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/obsidian-cli/SKILL.md

obsidian-cli is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from benoror/obsidianos_work. It costs 102 tokens per session (814 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of obsidian-cli, MIT.

A command-line interface for working with an open Obsidian vault, including notes, tasks, properties, plugins, and themes. Obsidian is an app for storing linked Markdown notes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read, create, search, and update notes and tasks, or to reload plugins, run JavaScript, inspect the page, capture errors, and take screenshots.
Why use it?
It lets scripts and coding agents manage vault content from the terminal instead of editing files manually. It also supports checking and reloading Obsidian development work.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is benoror/obsidianos_work's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on obsidianos_work itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything obsidianos_work configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

obsidian-cli 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 1mo 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.

Origin

Obsidian CLI

Usage

Use when the user wants vault operations via the terminal against a running Obsidian app (obsidian CLI), including plugin/theme dev helpers.

Use the obsidian CLI to interact with a running Obsidian instance. Requires Obsidian to be open.

Command reference

Run obsidian help to see all available commands. This is always up to date. Full docs: https://help.obsidian.md/cli

Syntax

Parameters take a value with =. Quote values with spaces:

obsidian create name="My Note" content="Hello world"

Flags are boolean switches with no value:

obsidian create name="My Note" silent overwrite

For multiline content use \n for newline and \t for tab.

File targeting

Many commands accept file or path to target a file. Without either, the active file is used.

  • file=<name> — resolves like a wikilink (name only, no path or extension needed)
  • path=<path> — exact path from vault root, e.g. folder/note.md

Vault targeting

Commands target the most recently focused vault by default. Use vault=<name> as the first parameter to target a specific vault:

obsidian vault="My Vault" search query="test"

Common patterns

obsidian read file="My Note"
obsidian create name="New Note" content="# Hello" template="Template" silent
obsidian append file="My Note" content="New line"
obsidian search query="search term" limit=10
obsidian daily:read
obsidian daily:append content="- [ ] New task"
obsidian property:set name="status" value="done" file="My Note"
obsidian tasks daily todo
obsidian tags sort=count counts
obsidian backlinks file="My Note"

Use --copy on any command to copy output to clipboard. Use silent to prevent files from opening. Use total on list commands to get a count.

Plugin development

Develop/test cycle

After making code changes to a plugin or theme, follow this workflow:

  1. Reload the plugin to pick up changes:
    obsidian plugin:reload id=my-plugin
    
  2. Check for errors — if errors appear, fix and repeat from step 1:
    obsidian dev:errors
    
  3. Verify visually with a screenshot or DOM inspection:
    obsidian dev:screenshot path=screenshot.png
    obsidian dev:dom selector=".workspace-leaf" text
    
  4. Check console output for warnings or unexpected logs:
    obsidian dev:console level=error

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.
