obsidian-cli

obsidian-cli is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sd0xdev/sd0x-harness. It costs 78 tokens per session (1,141 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Obsidian vault integration via official CLI. Use when: capturing dev artifacts to Obsidian vault, searching vault for context, appending to daily note, managing tasks in vault.

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 today.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/obsidian-exec.sh, scripts/obsidian-preflight.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Obsidian CLI Integration

Trigger

  • Keywords: obsidian, vault, daily note, capture to vault, search vault, obsidian task

When NOT to Use

  • Obsidian is not installed or CLI is not enabled
  • User wants to edit markdown files directly (just use Read/Write)
  • User wants to browse Obsidian docs (use agent-browser)
  • User wants general task management without Obsidian

Prerequisites

  • Obsidian v1.12+ with CLI enabled (Settings > General > Command line interface)
  • Obsidian desktop app must be running (CLI uses IPC)

Workflow

Preflight

# Check CLI + app + IPC readiness
bash scripts/run-skill.sh obsidian-cli obsidian-preflight.sh --check

# Set default vault
bash scripts/run-skill.sh obsidian-cli obsidian-preflight.sh --vault "My Vault"

# Print resolved env (for debugging)
bash scripts/run-skill.sh obsidian-cli obsidian-preflight.sh --print-env

Files

What ships with it

4 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.

Changes

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.
