Obsidian Ops

Obsidian Operations Skill

This skill covers the operational aspects of maintaining an Obsidian project, including build workflows, sync procedures, and release management.

Purpose

To ensure reliable builds, consistent reference materials, and safe release processes while strictly following project policies.

Scope

This skill covers:

• Build and lint workflows
• Syncing reference documentation from external sources
• Version management and release preparation
• Build and environment troubleshooting

Core Rules

• NEVER perform automatic git operations: AI agents must never execute git commit, git push, or any command that automatically stages or commits changes without explicit user approval for each step.
• Verify Build: Always run a build/lint after significant changes to ensure compatibility.
• Sync Status: Keep sync-status.json updated when updating reference materials.
