Two trigger modes: (A) IMMEDIATE - invoke this skill FIRST, before writing any local files, when the user mentions syncing to Obsidian, getting docs into the vault, or putting project documentation in Obsidian. Do NOT create local .md files first. (B) OFFER - after creating or editing markdown outside the vault (documentation, notes, research, guides, plans, summaries), offer to sync it. Do not wait for the user to ask in mode B - offer after substantive markdown is written.

Create and edit Obsidian Bases (.base files) with views, filters, formulas, and summaries. Use when working with .base files, creating database-like views of notes, or when the user mentions Bases, table views, card views, filters, or formulas in Obsidian.

Create and edit Obsidian Flavored Markdown with wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties, and other Obsidian-specific syntax. Use when working with .md files in Obsidian, or when the user mentions wikilinks, callouts, frontmatter, tags, embeds, or Obsidian notes.

Maintain an Obsidian vault with clean graph structure, hierarchical indexes, and lifecycle-based classification. Use when: (1) creating or editing Obsidian vault notes, (2) organizing or classifying content into vault categories, (3) maintaining folder indexes and navigation, (4) checking vault graph health or finding orphaned notes, (5) working with any Obsidian MCP tools (mcp__obsidian__*), or (6) the user mentions their vault, notes, or Obsidian.
