search

search is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from thoreinstein/gemini-obsidian. It costs 29 tokens per session (153 once invoked), scanned A, original, ISC.

A simple search tool for an Obsidian vault, a folder of linked Markdown notes. It finds notes by matching words in their filenames or content.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find notes by keyword or filename, then choose which results to read.
Why use it?
It gives you a short list of matching notes without requiring a meaning-based search system. It also keeps the number of results manageable.

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

search 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 6d 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.

What it actually says

Search Vault

Search for notes by keyword or filename match.

Workflow

  1. Call obsidian_search_notes with the user's query
  2. Present matching files in a clear list
  3. Ask if the user would like to read any of the results

Arguments

The search query follows the skill invocation. Example: /search cooking recipes

Tips

  • This is a simple text match (keyword in filename or content)
  • For semantic/meaning-based search, suggest /research instead
  • Results are capped at 20 matches
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.
