obsidian-vault is a Claude Code skill that searches, creates, and links Markdown notes in a fixed Obsidian vault using wikilinks and flat index notes instead of folder hierarchies.
About
obsidian-vault is a skill from vinvcn/mattpocock-skills-zh-cn for agent operations inside a configured Obsidian vault at a fixed root path with a deliberately flat layout. Organization relies on Title case note names, [[wikilinks]], and index notes such as Skills Index or RAG Index rather than nested folders. Search workflows use find and grep across *.md files by filename or content, or native Grep and Glob tools pointed at the vault path. Creating notes follows conventions: link dependencies at the bottom and aggregate topics through index notes that are simple wikilink lists. Developers reach for obsidian-vault when they want an AI agent to retrieve research memos, append new technical notes, or maintain cross-linked indexes during RAG, skills, or architecture research. The skill assumes shell access to the vault directory and Obsidian-compatible markdown linking syntax.
- Fixed vault path with flat root and Title Case filenames
- Wikilink and index-note conventions for topic aggregation
- Shell find/grep recipes plus agent Grep/Glob for filename and content search
- Backlink discovery via grep for [[Note Title]] references
- Create workflow: content, bottom wikilinks, optional hierarchical numbering

How do you search and link notes in Obsidian?
Search, create, and link Markdown notes in a fixed Obsidian vault using wikilinks and index notes instead of folder hierarchies.
Who is it for?
Developers who keep technical research in Obsidian and want agents to search, create, and cross-link notes without folder-heavy hierarchies.
Skip if: Teams standardized on Notion, Confluence, or repo-only docs with no local Obsidian vault path configured.
When should I use this skill?
The user wants to find, create, or organize notes in Obsidian using wikilinks, index notes, or vault search commands.
What you get
Created or updated Markdown notes with wikilinks, index note entries, and flat vault organization.
- Wikilinked notes
- Index note updates
- Search results
Files
Obsidian Vault
Vault location
/mnt/d/Obsidian Vault/AI Research/
root level 基本保持扁平。
Naming conventions
- Index notes：聚合相关 topics（例如
Ralph Wiggum Index.md、Skills Index.md、RAG Index.md） - 所有 note names 使用 Title case
- 不用 folders 做组织；改用 links 和 index notes
Linking
- 使用 Obsidian
[[wikilinks]]syntax：[[Note Title]] - Notes 在底部链接 dependencies/related notes
- Index notes 只是
[[wikilinks]]列表
Workflows
Search for notes
# Search by filename
find "/mnt/d/Obsidian Vault/AI Research/" -name "*.md" | grep -i "keyword"
# Search by content
grep -rl "keyword" "/mnt/d/Obsidian Vault/AI Research/" --include="*.md"或直接在 vault path 上使用 Grep/Glob tools。
Create a new note
1. filename 使用 Title Case 2. 按 vault rules，把内容写成一个 learning unit 3. 在底部添加指向 related notes 的 [[wikilinks]] 4. 如果属于 numbered sequence，使用 hierarchical numbering scheme
Find related notes
在 vault 中搜索 [[Note Title]] 来找 backlinks：
grep -rl "\\[\\[Note Title\\]\\]" "/mnt/d/Obsidian Vault/AI Research/"Find index notes
find "/mnt/d/Obsidian Vault/AI Research/" -name "*Index*"Related skills

How does obsidian-vault organize notes?

How can an agent search the Obsidian vault?
obsidian-vault supports filename search with find, content search with grep across *.md files, or agent Grep and Glob tools aimed at the configured vault path for keyword discovery.
