5 Claude Code Skills That Teach It How Obsidian Actually Works

@codenameposhanCapturedClaude Code / Skills

Exact instruction

Identify exactly what would be installed: the 'Obsidian Skills' Claude Code plugin (marketplace: capano/obsidian-skills), reportedly built by Obsidian's CEO Steph Ango — 5 skills: obsidian-markdown, obsidian-bases, json-canvas, obsidian-cli (full vault control from the terminal), and defuddle. Do NOT install it yet.
Research first — confirm who publishes the 'capano/obsidian-skills' marketplace, verify the Steph Ango / Obsidian-CEO claim, and review what each skill does (note obsidian-cli grants terminal control over the vault) and whether it's safe.
Present the findings for review, and install ONLY after explicit approval.
Once approved: inside a Claude Code session run '/plugin marketplace add capano/obsidian-skills' then '/plugin install obsidian-skills'.

Suggested prompt

Before installing anything, research the 'Obsidian Skills' Claude Code plugin (marketplace capano/obsidian-skills) for me: who publishes it, whether it's really from Obsidian's CEO, what each of the 5 skills does (especially obsidian-cli, which controls the vault from the terminal), and whether it's safe. Present your findings and wait for my explicit approval. Only if I approve, install it by running '/plugin marketplace add capano/obsidian-skills' then '/plugin install obsidian-skills'.

Adopt?

Yes: directly useful for anyone using Claude Code with an Obsidian vault — installs in seconds via the plugin marketplace. General Claude Code ecosystem update, not project-specific.
