description	Enable Obsidian integration and migrate existing vault to wiki links

Purpose

Convert Amp vault to Obsidian wiki link format for graph-based navigation.

Step 1: Check Current State

Read System/user-profile.yaml and check obsidian_mode field.

If already enabled:

• Say: "Obsidian mode is already enabled. Want to re-run migration? (Safe to run multiple times)"
• If user says no, exit
• If user says yes, continue to Step 3 (skip Step 2)

If not enabled:

• Continue to Step 2

Step 2: Explain Obsidian Integration

Say: "This will enable Obsidian mode in your Amp vault:

What changes:

• All person/company/project references become clickable wiki links
• Example: John_Doe → [[John_Doe]]
• Your existing files will be converted automatically

What stays the same:

• File structure (PARA folders)
• File contents (just adds [[ ]] around references)
• All MCP functionality

Time estimate: I'll scan your vault first and show you exactly how long it will take.

Safety: I'll create a git backup before any changes. Easy to revert if needed.

Ready to proceed?"

If NO: Say "No problem! You can run /amp-obsidian-setup anytime." and exit.

If YES: Continue to Step 3

Step 3: Run Migration

Call the migration script using Shell tool (run from the vault root directory):

python core/obsidian/migrate_to_wikilinks.py

The script handles:

• Estimation and user confirmation
• Git backup
• Progress tracking
• macOS notification on completion
• Error handling

Wait for the script to complete and show the output to the user.

Step 4: Update User Profile

Update System/user-profile.yaml to set obsidian_mode: true:

1. Read the current file
2. Use StrReplace to update the obsidian_mode field (or add it if missing)
3. If the file uses YAML format, preserve the structure

Step 5: Optional - Generate Obsidian Config

Ask: "Want me to generate an Obsidian configuration optimized for Amp? This includes:

• Recommended settings (wiki link format, auto-update links)
• Hotkeys for common actions (Cmd+G for graph view)
• Workspace layout (file explorer + backlinks)

These are stored in .obsidian/ and only affect Obsidian (not Cursor/terminal)."

If YES:

Run the config generator (from vault root):

python core/obsidian/generate_obsidian_config.py

Say: "✅ Obsidian config generated! Open your vault in Obsidian to see the optimized setup."

If NO:

Say: "No problem! You can always run this later with python core/obsidian/generate_obsidian_config.py"

Step 6: Optional - Start Sync Daemon

Ask: "Want to enable bidirectional sync? This keeps task checkboxes synced between Obsidian and Amp:

• Check a task in Obsidian → syncs to Tasks.md, person pages, meeting notes
• Check a task in Cursor → syncs to Obsidian

Runs in background, zero maintenance."

If YES:

Run the daemon installer (from vault root):

bash core/obsidian/install_sync_daemon.sh

If NO:

Say: "No problem! You can enable it later by running bash core/obsidian/install_sync_daemon.sh"

Step 7: Completion

Say: "✅ Obsidian mode enabled!

Next steps:

1. Open Obsidian: File → Open Folder → select your Amp vault folder
2. Check the graph view: Ctrl/Cmd + G
3. Click any wiki link to navigate

Tips:

• Graph filters: Focus on specific areas (People, Projects)
• Search: Cmd/Ctrl + O for quick open
• Backlinks pane: See everywhere a note is referenced

Resources:

• See 06-Resources/Amp_System/Obsidian_Guide.md for detailed tips
• Watch the beginner's guide if you're new to Obsidian

You can still use Amp in Cursor/terminal exactly as before. Wiki links work everywhere."

Notes

• This skill is safe to run multiple times (idempotent)
• Migration creates a git backup before making changes
• Revert anytime with git reset --hard HEAD~1
• Works with vaults of any size (10K+ files tested)

Track Usage (Silent)

Update System/usage_log.md to mark Obsidian setup as used.

Analytics (Silent):

Call track_event with event_name obsidian_enabled (no properties).

This only fires if the user has opted into analytics. No action needed if it returns "analytics_disabled".
