plugins/obsidian-wiki-engine/skills/obsidian-markdown-mastery/SKILL.md
Core markdown syntax skill for Obsidian. Enforces strict parsing and authoring of Obsidian proprietary syntax (Wikilinks, Blocks, Headings, Aliases, Embeds, Callouts). Use when reading, writing, or validating Obsidian-flavored markdown.

The obsidian-markdown-mastery skill is responsible for the exact formatting, extraction, and validation of Obsidian-flavoured Markdown. It provides the low-level string manipulation that allows higher-order agents (like the Graph Traverser or JSON Canvas Architect) to safely interpret relational links without breaking the .md Vault.
CRITICAL ARCHITECTURAL RULE: All vault data manipulation MUST occur through deterministic Python scripts rather than agent-prompted regex. This skill defines the
obsidian-parsermodule that performs these deterministic actions.Agnosticism Enforcement: This module knows NOTHING about project-specific protocols, persistence layers, or external services. It only knows how to parse text into valid Obsidian links and block-quotes. Project-specific configuration (vault paths, injection points) is managed via the
OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATHenvironment variable.
Extracts all Obsidian-specific metadata (links, embeds, blocks) from a given markdown file or string.
Command: python ./parser.py analyze --file <path_to_md>
Wraps a target text block in an Obsidian-flavored callout.
Command: python ./parser.py callout --type <type> --title <title> --text <content>
When manipulating strings via this module, the following formats are enforced:
[[Note Name]][[Note Name#Heading Name]][[Note Name#^block-id]][[Note Name|Display Text]]![[Note Name]] (Note the leading !)> [!type] Title
> Content block goes here.
info, warning, error, success, note.Other tools (such as protocol-manager and chronicle-manager) rely on the unified OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH environment variable to discover where the root of the Obsidian Vault resides. If missing, it defaults to the project root.
tools
Ingests repository files into the ChromaDB vector store. Builds or updates the vector index from a manifest or directory scan using ingest.py. Use when new files need to be indexed or the vector store is out of date. <example> user: "Index these new plugin files into the vector database" assistant: "I'll use vector-db-ingest to add them to the vector store." </example> <example> user: "The vector store is missing recent files -- update it" assistant: "I'll use vector-db-ingest to re-index the changes." </example>
data-ai
Removes stale and orphaned chunks from the ChromaDB vector store for files that have been deleted or renamed. Use after files are removed or moved to keep the vector index in sync with the filesystem. <example> user: "Clean up the vector store after I deleted some files" assistant: "I'll use vector-db-cleanup to remove orphaned chunks." </example> <example> user: "The vector database has chunks for files that no longer exist" assistant: "I'll run vector-db-cleanup to prune them." </example>
testing
Audit Vector DB coverage -- compares the live filesystem manifest against the ChromaDB index to identify coverage gaps.
development
3-Phase Knowledge Search strategy for the RLM Factory ecosystem. Auto-invoked when tasks involve finding code, documentation, or architecture context in the repository. Enforces the optimal search order: RLM Summary Scan (O(1)) -> Vector DB Semantic Search -> Grep/Exact Match. Never skip phases.
