Obsidian

Use the obsidian bridge to manage Obsidian vault notes via obsidian-cli on the host.

When to Use

• User asks about Obsidian notes or vault
• Creating, searching, or editing Markdown notes in a vault
• Moving/renaming notes (preserves wikilinks)

When NOT to Use

• Apple Notes -> use apple-notes bridge
• Bear notes -> use bear-notes bridge
• Generic file editing -> use filesystem tools

Commands

All commands run via host_execute(bridge="obsidian", command="...").

Find Vault

obsidian-cli print-default --path-only

Search

obsidian-cli search "query"                  # Search note names
obsidian-cli search-content "query"          # Search inside notes

Create

obsidian-cli create "Folder/New note" --content "..." --open

Move/Rename (updates wikilinks)

obsidian-cli move "old/path/note" "new/path/note"

• Vault config: ~/Library/Application Support/obsidian/obsidian.json

Setup (on host)

• Install: brew install yakitrak/yakitrak/obsidian-cli
• Set default vault: obsidian-cli set-default "vault-name"
