Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned davepoon/buildwithclaude at fc03a95b41.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

The Obsidian-Markdown skill enables AI agents to interact directly with the Obsidian note-taking ecosystem. It allows agents to read, write, and manage Markdown files within your vaults, facilitating seamless data processing and knowledge management.

When to use it

  • Automating the extraction of key insights from large collections of personal notes.
  • Generating structured summaries or reports based on specific tags or folder structures.
  • Updating existing documentation with new information retrieved from external sources.
  • Performing bulk file operations like renaming, moving, or deleting notes based on criteria.

Key capabilities

  • Reading and parsing Markdown files stored in Obsidian vaults.
  • Creating new Markdown notes with formatted text and links.
  • Modifying existing content while preserving the Markdown syntax.
  • Managing file metadata and organizational structures within the vault.

Example prompts

  • "Read all notes tagged 'project-alpha' and summarize the current status."
  • "Create a new note titled 'Meeting Minutes' in the 'Work/2023' folder with today's date."
  • "Update the introduction section of my 'Personal Goals' note to include three new objectives."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has explicit read/write permissions configured for the specific Obsidian vault location before attempting file operations. The skill relies on standard Markdown syntax, so complex formatting or custom plugins may require additional configuration or testing to ensure compatibility.
