Also new: Obsidian joins the CLI gang

https://help.obsidian.md/cli

I’ve been having a lot of fun recently using AI CLIs with Obsidian. No plugins necessary because it’s just a directory tree of markdown files.

I love that CLIs are getting a second wind.

I've been using iCloud to sync Obsidian, and have consistently run into the problem that iCloud file container access needs full disk permissions that I don't want to give the agent (or Ghostty). Does everybody use Obsidian's paid sync instead or what? Or SyncThing?

It's not super useful yet- you can't really view notes in the CLI but you can can trigger features like search.

Oh snap! Thanks for that, I can really make good use of this!

I switched from obsidian to the zk CLI a few months ago and have no regrets (https://github.com/zk-org/zk). Highly recommend for people looking for something a little simpler. But this looks promising from obsidian!
