npx claudepluginhub jackal092927/obsidian-official-cli-skillsGuides agents to use Obsidian CLI safely — 13 silent failure gotchas documented.
jackal092927Agent skill for the Obsidian CLI (1.12+). Guides coding agents to use Obsidian CLI safely — avoiding silent failures in tasks, tags, search, properties, and file creation.
[!WARNING] Without this skill, your agent will silently get wrong answers from Obsidian CLI. Commands succeed with exit code 0 — but return empty or incorrect data.
From 57 scenario tests against Obsidian CLI 1.12 (tested Feb. 13, 2026):
| Trap | What happens without the skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Task scope | tasks todo → 0 results (scoped to "active file" = nothing) | tasks all todo |
| Tag scope | tags counts → empty | tags all counts |
| Property format | properties format=json → returns YAML | properties format=tsv |
| Search format | search query="x" → plain text, no structure | search query="x" format=json matches |
| Create silent | create name="x" content="y" → opens Obsidian UI | add silent flag |
| Exit codes | error message but $? = 0 | parse output for Error: |
Every one of these looks like it worked. None of them did. Full evidence: HIGH_RISK_REPORT.md
