What you can do with it
- Ask an agent to write and edit Obsidian notes using wikilinks, callouts, embeds and properties
- Have an agent build Obsidian Bases and canvas files with views, filters, nodes and connections

Make money with it
Offer a service setting up and maintaining agent-assisted Obsidian knowledge bases for small teams or consultants.
An idea, not financial advice. Check the licence before charging for anything built on it.
Ways a business could use it
- Keep a client or project knowledge base in Obsidian tidy by letting an agent file, link and format notes, saving admin time
- Turn spreadsheet or JSON data into consistent Markdown documents in bulk, such as product pages or client briefs
Can you use it commercially?
Free to use, change and sell, including in paid products. Keep the copyright notice.
Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.
Getting it running
Install it as a Claude Code plugin with two commands, with npx skills, or by copying the skills folder into your agent's skills directory.
Follow the official instructions in the project README.
Things to check
- Needs a separate AI agent, which may require a paid subscription or API key
- Obsidian CLI skill depends on Obsidian's own command line tool being available
