What is Seekstone?

Seekstone is an Obsidian MCP server — it gives Claude (and any Model Context Protocol client) direct read and write access to your Obsidian vault. No Obsidian app needs to be open, no plugins are required, and nothing leaves your machine.

It reads your vault directly from disk rather than routing through the Obsidian Local REST API plugin, and holds a warm full-text index in-process. The practical difference is twofold:

Speed. Searches return in single-digit milliseconds warm — up to ~200× faster than every other Obsidian MCP server we benchmarked, because there's no subprocess to spawn and no HTTP round-trip per query.

Context. A broad search that returns *tens of megabytes
