Obsidian AI Setup – A production-ready onboarding skill for AI agents

Obsidian AI Setup provides a production-ready onboarding framework designed to help AI agents efficiently integrate with Obsidian, including structured guidance and configuration for automated workflows.

Background

- Obsidian is a popular local-first note-taking and knowledge-management app (like a personal wiki) that stores everything in plain Markdown files. - This repository provides a ready-to-use "onboarding" package for AI coding agents (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude) so they understand an Obsidian vault's folder structure, conventions, and plugins before editing notes. - It solves a common pain point: AI agents often damage or misorganize Obsidian vaults because they don't know the rules (e.g., which folder is for daily notes, how tags or links are formatted). The setup includes agent instructions, file templates, and rule files that tell the AI how to behave. - The repo is meant for power users who want to let AI assistants safely write, reorganize, or retrieve notes inside their personal knowledge base without breaking it.
