Why This Matters

This repo is from the creator of Obsidian. It:

Validates that the Agent Skills standard is the right format for Obsidian AI tools
Provides the canonical reference for how to teach Claude about Obsidian-specific syntax
Covers Obsidian Bases — a new core Obsidian feature that no other AI project supports yet

Skills

Skill	What It Teaches Claude
`obsidian-markdown`	Full Obsidian Flavored Markdown: wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties, tags
`obsidian-bases`	Obsidian Bases (.base files): views, filters, formulas, summaries
`json-canvas`	JSON Canvas spec: nodes, edges, groups, connections
`obsidian-cli`	Vault management, plugin/theme dev via Obsidian CLI
`defuddle`	Extract clean Markdown from web pages — removes ads, nav, clutter

defuddle

The defuddle skill wraps defuddle-cli. When ingesting web content, running defuddle first:

Strips ads, navigation, footers
Reduces token usage ~40-60% on typical web pages
Produces cleaner Markdown that fits better in context window

This is a direct cherry-pick for claude-obsidian's ingest pipeline.

Multi-Platform

Works with Claude Code, Codex CLI, and OpenCode out of the box.
