Obsidian GH Knowledge (CLI-first)

Use this skill to manage an Obsidian vault safely and consistently.

Source of truth

• Official CLI docs: https://help.obsidian.md/cli
• Public release note introducing CLI: https://obsidian.md/changelog/2026-02-27-desktop-v1.12.4/

Note: CLI docs may still show early-access wording in some sections. Treat the public changelog (February 27, 2026) as the release marker.

Execution modes (strict order)

1. Local Obsidian CLI mode (preferred)
   • Use when local vault exists and obsidian CLI is available and enabled.
2. Local filesystem/git fallback
   • Use when local vault exists but CLI is not enabled.
3. GitHub mode fallback
   • Use when local vault is unavailable or explicitly disabled.
