kb-render is a Claude Code skill that renders deterministic outward-facing artifacts such as slides, reports, charts, and canvas from approved Obsidian knowledge.
About
The kb-render skill produces deterministic outward-facing artifacts from the approved knowledge of an Obsidian vault. A developer uses it to render slides, reports, charts, or canvas outputs as deterministic derivatives of approved live pages or cited archived answers. It matters because it keeps approved pages as the only grounding source and reports which pages grounded each artifact and where it was saved.
- Renders deterministic slides, reports, charts, and canvas from approved knowledge
- Grounds artifacts only on approved live pages and cited archived outputs

Supported deterministic outputs remain:

Keep approved live pages and already-cited archived outputs as the only grounding sources.
Static web export belongs to kb-query, not kb-render.
