# Obsidian Vault Maintainer > Maintain an Obsidian-friendly memory wiki vault with wikilinks, frontmatter, and official Obsidian CLI awareness. Use when this capability is needed. - Skill: `tomevault-io/obsidian-vault-maintainer` (Agent Skill, multi-file: 2 files) - Install (CLI): `npx skillmds@latest add tomevault-io/obsidian-vault-maintainer` - Raw SKILL.md: https://api.skillmd.com/api/skills/tomevault-io/obsidian-vault-maintainer/raw - Safety review: pending (external: skill-scanner PASS, skillspector PASS) - Works with: Claude Code, Claude.ai, OpenAI Codex - Category: Coding & Dev Tools - Author: tomevault-io (https://skillmd.com/u/tomevault-io) - Updated: 2026-09-17 - Page: https://skillmd.com/skills/tomevault-io/obsidian-vault-maintainer --- Use this skill when the memory-wiki vault render mode is `obsidian` or the user wants the wiki to play nicely with Obsidian. - Start from `velaclaw wiki status` to confirm the vault mode and whether the official Obsidian CLI is available. - Use `velaclaw wiki obsidian status` before shelling out, then prefer the dedicated helpers like `velaclaw wiki obsidian search`, `velaclaw wiki obsidian open`, `velaclaw wiki obsidian command`, and `velaclaw wiki obsidian daily`. - Prefer `[[Wikilinks]]`, stable filenames, and frontmatter that works with Obsidian dashboards and Dataview-style queries. - Keep generated sections deterministic so Obsidian users can safely add handwritten notes around them. - If the official Obsidian CLI is enabled, probe it before depending on it. Do not assume the app is installed, running, or configured. - Avoid destructive renames unless you also have a link-repair plan. --- > Source: [Zavianx/vela](https://github.com/Zavianx/vela) — distributed by [TomeVault](https://tomevault.io).
