Use this skill to perform repeatable, vault-wide operations on Obsidian markdown files. Keep this file lean and route to the correct reference or script instead of duplicating detail.

scripts/batch_processor.py- Main CLI entry point and command routing.scripts/wikilink_extractor.py- Extract and analyze wikilinks.scripts/tag_normalizer.py- Normalize tags across a vault.scripts/frontmatter_processor.py- Bulk frontmatter operations.scripts/vault_analyzer.py- Vault statistics and health reports.
Standard Workflow
- Back up the vault.
- Run a dry run when available.
- Execute the operation.
- Verify results with a report or spot checks.
How to Use This Skill
- Pick the smallest reference file that answers the question.
- Summarize only what is needed, then point to the exact script or command.
- If the user asks for edits or new behavior, modify the relevant script and keep the CLI consistent with
references/cli-usage.md.
