15 of 15 tools

Documented tools (15)

From project documentation. A server handshake does not verify each tool’s description or behavior.

add-tags

Add tags to notes in frontmatter and/or content.

create-directory

Create a new directory in the vault.

create-note

Create a new note with Markdown content.

delete-note

Delete a note from the vault.

edit-note

Edit an existing note.

frontmatter

Read or write any YAML frontmatter key — not just tags. Writes are line surgery on the one key named, so the rest of the block (comments, key order, quoting) survives byte for byte.

list-available-vaults

List all vaults configured for this server. Takes no parameters.

move-note

Move or rename a note within the vault.

periodic

Today's daily note, and its weekly/monthly/quarterly/yearly siblings — read from Obsidian's own settings (the Periodic Notes plugin's data.json, then core's daily-notes.json, then Obsidian's defaults), so it lands where Obsidian would rather than creating a stray note.

read-note

Read the content of an existing note.

remove-tags

Remove tags from notes.

rename-tag

Rename a tag across all notes in the vault.

search-vault

Search notes by content, filename, or tag. Results are BM25-ranked, best-first, and paged.

vault-info

What's actually in this vault — the questions you ask before you know what to search for.

wikilinks

The vault's link graph, in one parallel pass.
