Connects Claude directly to your Obsidian vault through filesystem reads and writes, no plugin or running Obsidian app required. Exposes eight tools: full-text search that returns ranked excerpts instead of complete documents, read/create/delete/move operations, targeted append without touching frontmatter, and surgical YAML patches that preserve formatting. The key win is search efficiency. Where REST API wrappers return every matched note in full (megabytes, hundreds of thousands of tokens), this returns ~200-character snippets and lets Claude decide what to read completely. Builds an in-memory index on startup and keeps it live. Works across macOS, Linux, and Windows. If you're burning context on vault searches or want Claude to work with notes while Obsidian is closed, this is the implementation to try.
