Obsidian Vault Skills for Claude Code

19 slash commands that turn Claude Code into an intelligent layer on your Obsidian vault: daily context, inbox clearing, idea resurfacing, honest weekly reviews.

My verdict: These run my actual day. /ob-context in the morning, /ob-closeday at night, and /ob-resurface has saved ideas I had completely forgotten writing.

What it is

A complete set of 19 slash commands that read, analyse, and write to your Obsidian vault: surfacing patterns, clearing backlogs, challenging assumptions, and keeping you honest about what you are actually doing versus what you planned.

The quick map:

SituationSkill
Start of day/ob-context then /ob-today
End of day/ob-closeday
End of week/ob-weekreview
Before a call/ob-prep [name]
Inbox piling up/ob-inbox
Looking for old relevant notes/ob-resurface
Stress-testing an idea/ob-challenge [topic]
Writing in your own voice/ob-ghost [question]

Eleven more cover pruning, backlog triage, idea generation, pattern drift, and graduating notes into permanent knowledge.

Who it is for

Anyone with an Obsidian vault that has become a write-only archive. The notes go in; nothing comes back out. These commands make the vault answer back.

Setup outline

  1. Copy each skill into ~/.claude/commands/ (or hand the whole pack to Claude Code and let it install and configure them for your vault path).
  2. Set your vault name and path in each skill’s setup block.
  3. The skills assume a simple folder structure (ops, inbox, knowledge, people); the pack documents it and adapts if yours differs.
