Good news for Obsidian users: AI Agents can now truly “learn” how to operate your knowledge base. kepano has open-sourced obsidian-skills, providing Obsidian skill support for agents like Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and more. It has already garnered over 45K stars on GitHub.
It includes five core capabilities:
- obsidian-markdown: Read and write Obsidian Markdown, Wikilinks, Callouts, and Properties
- obsidian-bases: Create and edit Bases, filters, formulas, and views
- json-canvas: Generate and modify Canvas, automatically connecting nodes and relationships
- obsidian-cli: Operate vaults, plugins, and themes directly via CLI
- defuddle: Clean web page content into pure Markdown and save it directly into the knowledge base
More importantly, it follows the Agent Skills specification, meaning it isn’t locked to a single model—it can integrate directly with Coding Agents like Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode.
If you’ve been wanting to upgrade Obsidian from a “note-taking app” to a truly AI Agent-driven personal knowledge base, this project is definitely worth exploring.

Agent Skills for use with Obsidian. These skills follow the Agent Skills 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 [email protected]:kepano/obsidian-skills.git
Instead of SSH, if you prefer 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.
Codex
Copy the skills/ directory into your Codex skills path (typically ~/.codex/skills). See the Agent Skills specification for the standard skill format.
OpenCode
Clone the entire repo into the OpenCode skills directory (~/.opencode/skills/):
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.
