Agent skills for Obsidian. Teach your agent to use Obsidian CLI and open formats including Markdown, Bases, JSON Canvas.

README at capture

Agent Skills for use with Obsidian.

These skills follow the [Agent Skills specification](https://agentskills.io/specification) so they can be used by any skills-compatible agent, including Claude Code, Codex, and Open Code.

## Installation

### Marketplace

```
/plugin marketplace add kepano/obsidian-skills
/plugin install obsidian@obsidian-skills
```

### npx skills

```
npx skills add git@github.com:kepano/obsidian-skills.git
```

Instead of ssh, if you prefer to use https:

```
npx skills add https://github.com/kepano/obsidian-skills
```

### Manually

#### Claude Code

Add the contents of this repo to a `/.claude` folder in the root of your Obsidian vault (or whichever folder you're using with Claude Code). See more in the [official Claude Skills documentation](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/agent-skills/overview).

#### Codex

Copy the `skills/` directory into your Codex skills path (typically `~/.codex/skills`). See the [Agent Skills specification](https://agentskills.io/specification) for the standard skill format.

#### OpenCode

Clone the entire repo into the OpenCode skills directory (`~/.opencode/skills/`):

```sh
git clone https://github.com/kepano/obsidian-skills.git ~/.opencode/skills/obsidian-skills
```

Do not copy only the inner `skills/` folder — clone the full repo so the directory structure is `~/.opencode/skills/obsidian-skills/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md`.

OpenCode auto-discovers all `SKILL.md` files under `~/.opencode/skills/`. No changes to `opencode.json` or any config file are needed. Skills become available after restarting OpenCode.
