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

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 zhanlincui/ultimate-agent-skills-collection at 849c38a32d.

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

About this skill

What it does

The obsidian-helper skill allows AI agents to interact with and manage Obsidian vaults. It can create new notes, retrieve existing note content, and update the contents of existing notes based on instructions. This facilitates automated knowledge management and integration between AI workflows and personal knowledge bases stored in Obsidian.

When to use it

  • Automated Note Creation: Generate meeting summaries or research findings directly into your Obsidian vault without manual effort.
  • Knowledge Retrieval: Quickly access relevant information from your notes when the agent needs context for a task.
  • Content Updates: Automatically update existing notes with new data, such as tracking project progress or consolidating research.
  • Workflow Integration: Connect AI-powered processes (like content generation) directly to your Obsidian knowledge base.

Key capabilities

  • Create new notes in an Obsidian vault.
  • Retrieve the contents of existing notes.
  • Update the content of existing notes.

Example prompts

  • "Create a note titled 'Project Phoenix - Status Update' and add today's progress."
  • "Find the note about 'Competitive Analysis' and summarize its key findings."
  • "Update the note 'Customer Feedback' with this new comment: '[New Comment]'."

Tips & gotchas

The agent needs access to your Obsidian vault. Ensure appropriate permissions are configured for the AI agent to read and write files within the vault.
