Obsidian
Interact with Obsidian vaults through the official CLI. The CLI communicates with the running Obsidian app via IPC, giving access to pre-computed indexes (search, backlinks, metadata cache, tags) rather than raw file I/O.
Prerequisites
- Obsidian desktop v1.12+ running (CLI launches it automatically if closed)
- CLI registered via Settings > General > Command line interface > Register CLI
Core CLI Syntax
obsidian <command> [param=value ...] [flags]
- Target vault:
vault=<name>(omit to use the active vault) - File by name (wikilink-style resolution):
file=<name> - File by path (exact):
path=<folder/note.md> - Defaults to active file when no file/path given
- Quote values with spaces:
name="My Note" - Newlines/tabs in content: use
\nand\t - Copy output to clipboard: append
--copy - Count results: append
totalto list commands - Output formats:
format=json,format=md,format=csv,format=text - Running
obsidianwith no arguments launches the interactive TUI
Obsidian-Flavored Markdown
When creating notes, use these Obsidian-specific extensions:
Links and embeds:
[[Note Name]] — wikilink
[[Note Name|Display Text]] — aliased link
[[Note Name#Heading]] — heading link
[[Note Name#^blockid]] — block reference
![[Note Name]] — embed full note
![[Note Name#Heading]] — embed section
![[image.png|300]] — embed image with width
Callouts:
> [!note] Optional Title
> Content here.
> [!tip]+ Expanded by default
> [!warning]- Collapsed by default
Types: note, abstract/summary/tldr, info/todo, tip/hint/important, success/check/done, question/help/faq, warning/caution/attention, failure/fail/missing, danger/error, bug, example, quote/cite

Vault Organization Principles
- Use wikilinks for semantic connections between ideas
- Use tags for status/type metadata that crosses topics (
#status/active,#type/meeting) - Use properties for structured, queryable metadata (dates, numbers, booleans)
- Use folders sparingly (1-2 levels max) for broad note-type separation
- Use MOCs (Maps of Content) for navigational structure within topics
- Name notes descriptively — the filename is the default link display text
- Daily notes use ISO format:
YYYY-MM-DD
