The Obsidian MCP Server enables AI assistants to interact with an Obsidian vault for comprehensive note management and organization:
Note operations: Read, create, update (replace or append), and delete notes
Smart search: Find notes by content, tags, path, modification date, or Obsidian search syntax
Organization: Create, move, and manage folders and notes, including bulk operations
Tag management: Add, remove, or update tags; list all unique tags with usage counts
Link analysis: Examine backlinks, outgoing links, and identify broken links
Metadata: Retrieve statistics like word count, size, and link analysis
AI-optimized: Designed for seamless integration with clear error messages and smart defaults
Secure: Uses API key authentication and local-only connections
Performance: Optimized for large vaults using concurrent operations and batching
Provides tools for reading, creating, searching, and managing notes in an Obsidian vault through the Local REST API plugin, enabling operations like listing notes by directory, reading note content, creating/updating notes, and performing text searches.
