claude-obsidian
A local-first knowledge system for Claude Code and other Agent Skills hosts that turns source material into linked, source-cited Obsidian notes, with workflows for research, retrieval and vault maintenance.
claude-obsidian is a local-first knowledge system for Claude Code and compatible Agent Skills hosts. It turns source material into linked, source-cited Obsidian pages, answers questions from evidence already in the vault, and provides explicit workflows for research, retrieval, maintenance and visual mapping.
The vault stays a normal directory of Markdown, JSON and source files rather than being hidden in a plugin cache or a cloud database. Captured sources go through a visible inbox and are kept as immutable, content-addressed copies; source and claim ledgers track authority, freshness, support, contradiction, confidence and review state, and the system builds linked pages, indexes, Maps of Content and Obsidian Canvas views from them.
Parallel workers can propose drafts, but one orchestrator inspects and applies changes as a single recoverable transaction, so agents cannot race the vault. Network access for the vault is a separate, explicit decision.
