obsidian-mcp-server: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/docs-updater/SKILL.md

Documentation Updater is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Vasallo94/obsidian-mcp-server. It costs 29 tokens per session (874 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A documentation-maintenance guide for an Obsidian MCP server. MCP is a way for an AI assistant to call tools; the guide covers where to document tools, configuration, architecture, and changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Updating tool references, configuration guides, architecture notes, examples, and the changelog when the server changes.
Why use it?
It helps keep written documentation aligned with code after tools, settings, features, or architecture change.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

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

This is Vasallo94/obsidian-mcp-server's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on obsidian-mcp-server 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 obsidian-mcp-server 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

Documentation Updater 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 8d 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 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.
