Why This Matters
This repo is from the creator of Obsidian. It:
- Validates that the Agent Skills standard is the right format for Obsidian AI tools
- Provides the canonical reference for how to teach Claude about Obsidian-specific syntax
- Covers Obsidian Bases — a new core Obsidian feature that no other AI project supports yet
Skills
| Skill | What It Teaches Claude |
|---|---|
obsidian-markdown | Full Obsidian Flavored Markdown: wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties, tags |
obsidian-bases | Obsidian Bases (.base files): views, filters, formulas, summaries |
json-canvas | JSON Canvas spec: nodes, edges, groups, connections |
obsidian-cli | Vault management, plugin/theme dev via Obsidian CLI |
defuddle | Extract clean Markdown from web pages — removes ads, nav, clutter |
defuddle
The defuddle skill wraps defuddle-cli. When ingesting web content, running defuddle first:
- Strips ads, navigation, footers
- Reduces token usage ~40-60% on typical web pages
- Produces cleaner Markdown that fits better in context window
This is a direct cherry-pick for claude-obsidian’s ingest pipeline.
Multi-Platform
Works with Claude Code, Codex CLI, and OpenCode out of the box.
