Obsidian Vault Operations

Overview

Direct file system management for Obsidian project documentation. Enforces YYYY-MM-DD-name.md naming, generates frontmatter, maintains wikilinks, organizes into projects// and _inbox/.

For project linking features (CLAUDE.local.md integration, dual locations, automatic startup), see the project-linking skill.

Configuration

Vault path: Look for "Primary vault:" in conversation context (from CLAUDE.md).

• Use the most recent occurrence if multiple are present (user override takes precedence)
• Default: ~/Obsidian/vault if not specified
• Expand ~ to user's home directory before using
