Second Brain Skills

Install when you want Claude Code skills wired for a personal Obsidian second brain instead of ad-hoc note dumps.

Overview

second-brain-skills is a plugin marketplace for the Grow phase that adds an Obsidian-focused personal second brain skill to Claude Code.

What is this marketplace?

  • Single-plugin marketplace bundling a Obsidian-oriented second brain skill
  • Personal knowledge system focused on vault structure and capture habits
  • Works alongside solo-builder research, docs, and content phases
  • Curated marketplace entry (1 plugin) from Shestera—not a generic notes MCP
  • Version 1.0.0 plugin sourced from the repo root
  • Marketplace lists 1 plugin: second-brain v1.0.0
  • Owner: Shestera (GitHub: shestera)

Compatible agents: Claude Code, Cursor, any compatible agent

What problem does it solve?

Solo builders lose decisions and research across chats and loose files because nothing ties their agent workflow to a durable Obsidian knowledge system.

Who is it for?

Indie builders who already use Obsidian and want one marketplace plugin to align agent behavior with PKM habits.

Skip if: Teams on Notion or Confluence-only stacks, or builders who need real-time sync plugins rather than skill-guided vault workflows.

What do I get? / Deliverables

After adding the marketplace, your agent can follow second-brain conventions so notes, links, and recall stay in Obsidian across the journey.

  • Installed second-brain plugin from the 1-plugin bundle
  • Agent-ready patterns for Obsidian second brain capture and linking
  • Repeatable PKM workflow across research and content phases

Plugins in this marketplace

1 plugin — install individually after you add the marketplace.

Recommended Marketplaces

Journey fit

Canonical shelf is Grow because the bundle optimizes long-term knowledge compounding and content reuse after you ship. Content subphase fits capturing, linking, and repurposing ideas—not one-off build artifacts.

How it compares

Curated Obsidian skill marketplace, not a standalone MCP server or generic documentation generator.
