  • obsidian-cli-bases-and-bookmarks

    skills/obsidian-cli-bases-and-bookmarks/SKILL.md

    Use this skill when the user needs official desktop Obsidian CLI Bases or Bookmarks workflows, including base discovery, view/query operations, base item creation, and bookmark management. Keep this skill separate from general note CRUD, runtime admin, Sync/Publish, and devtools diagnostics.

    SKILL.md content is not in this snapshot. Open the raw file to copy it from the source repository.

  • obsidian-cli-devtools

    skills/obsidian-cli-devtools/SKILL.md

    Use this skill when the user needs Obsidian runtime debugging or developer introspection through official desktop Obsidian CLI developer commands, including devtools, console/errors capture, DOM/CSS inspection, screenshots, CDP calls, and controlled eval. Do not use for regular note CRUD, task/property editing, Sync/Publish administration, or community tooling outside the official CLI.

    SKILL.md content is not in this snapshot. Open the raw file to copy it from the source repository.

  • obsidian-cli-runtime-admin

    skills/obsidian-cli-runtime-admin/SKILL.md

    Use this skill when the user needs Obsidian runtime administration through official desktop CLI commands for plugins, restricted mode, themes, CSS snippets, command catalog/hotkeys, or targeted command execution. Keep this skill separate from note CRUD, Sync/Publish, and devtools diagnostics.

    SKILL.md content is not in this snapshot. Open the raw file to copy it from the source repository.

  • obsidian-cli-sync-and-publish

    skills/obsidian-cli-sync-and-publish/SKILL.md

    Use this skill when the user needs official desktop Obsidian CLI Sync workflows and, when detected as available, Publish workflows. This skill is for remote-side-effect operations and must use explicit intent, capability probing, and conservative safety checks.

    SKILL.md content is not in this snapshot. Open the raw file to copy it from the source repository.

  • obsidian-cli-workflows

    skills/obsidian-cli-workflows/SKILL.md

    Use this skill for one-command Obsidian workflow orchestration across the existing six domain skills. This skill owns named workflow command IDs and preview/apply execution policy, while delegating all direct official CLI command execution to the appropriate domain skill.

    SKILL.md content is not in this snapshot. Open the raw file to copy it from the source repository.

  • obsidian-cli-workspace-and-navigation

    skills/obsidian-cli-workspace-and-navigation/SKILL.md

    Use this skill when the user needs official desktop Obsidian CLI workspace, vault, tab, navigation, and utility operations, including workspace save/load/delete, tab and recent-file handling, vault info/listing, random/unique note navigation helpers, web viewer, and wordcount. Keep this skill separate from note CRUD/tasks/properties/history, runtime admin, devtools diagnostics, and Sync/Publish operations.

    SKILL.md content is not in this snapshot. Open the raw file to copy it from the source repository.

  • obsidian-official-cli

    skills/obsidian-official-cli/SKILL.md

    Use this skill when the user wants local Obsidian note or metadata work done primarily through documented official desktop `obsidian` CLI commands, with limited local vault filesystem support when needed for parent folders, path checks, ambiguity resolution, verification, or safe vault structure operations. Best for local vault search, note reads, exact-path note updates, backlinks, tasks, properties, templates, and local history. Do not use it for runtime admin, devtools diagnostics, workspace/navigation administration, community tools, `obsidian://` launcher tasks, Headless Sync or Publish workflows, or plugin-specific APIs.
