|
## Why This Matters
|
|
|
|
This repo is from the creator of Obsidian. It:
|
|
1. Validates that the Agent Skills standard is the right format for Obsidian AI tools
|
|
2. Provides the canonical reference for how to teach Claude about Obsidian-specific syntax
|
|
3. 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.
