Why kObsidian

Filesystem-first. Operates on your vault directly. Obsidian doesn't need to be running for 55+ of the 66 tools.

66 typed MCP tools across vaults, notes, links, tags, tasks, Dataview, Canvas, Kanban, fenced blocks, Marp, Templates — every one Zod-validated with structuredContent output and the full 4-hint MCP annotation set (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint).

Multi-vault vault.* (v0.3.0). The LLM can vault.list your known Obsidian vaults (discovered from Obsidian's own registry or OBSIDIAN_VAULT_<NAME> env vars) and vault.select between them for the session. Fully backwards compatible: OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH stays the default and per-call vaultPath arguments always win.

LLM-Wiki orchestration — a wiki.* namespace that turns your vault into a compounding knowledge base: ingest sources, auto-update an index + greppable log, lint for orphans / broken links / stale pages. Agent applies cross-refs via a proposedEdits contract so every write is visible in the transcript.

Both transports. Classic stdio for local MCP clients and Streamable HTTP (Hono) for remote, with CORS preflight, MCP-Protocol-Version handli

kObsidian MCP

Filesystem-first MCP server for Obsidian vaults — with an LLM-Wiki layer on top.

Inspired by Andrej Karpathy's LLM Wiki idea. You curate the sources; the LLM does the bookkeeping.

Install · Quick start · Architecture · LLM Wiki · Tools · Docs

🧰 The only Obsidian MCP with workspaces. vault.list / vault.select let an LLM discover and switch between your Obsidian vaults in-session — no restart, no config edit, no per-tool path threading. Backwards compatible with OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH. Added in v0.3.0. See docs/WORKSPACES.md.
