Orphan Notes
get_orphan_notesRead-onlyIdempotent
Find notes with no backlinks or outlinks to identify isolated content that may need connecting or removing.
Instructions
Return all notes with no inbound or outbound links.
WARNING: returns ALL orphans with no limit — check 'stats' for orphan_count before calling on large vaults.
An orphan note has no backlinks (no other note links to it) and no outlinks (it links to nothing). Call this when 'stats' shows orphan_count > 0. Useful for finding isolated notes that may need to be connected to the rest of the vault or removed.
Input Schema

| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| wait_for_pending_writes | No | When True, wait until your recent write/edit/delete/rename operations have been applied to the index before answering, so the results reflect those changes. Use it right after modifying notes when this read must see them (e.g. right after a write/edit/delete/rename whose effect this read should reflect). Default False answers immediately from the current index — almost always already up to date; inspect the response's ``_meta.index_stale`` field to tell whether a write was still in flight. Bounded by a server timeout (default 60s); on timeout it answers from the current index rather than waiting longer. |
