Detect and use the official Obsidian command-line interface for read-only vault access; use for wiki-cli, Obsidian CLI, Obsidian read, Obsidian search, vault transport, which transport, transport detection, backlinks, tags, or Obsidian command line. Mutations always go through the claude-obsidian transaction core.

One of 11 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
I need to read note `journal/2026-03-28.md` using the CLI in vault `/Users/alex/notes`. My current working directory in bash is `/tmp`. What exact shell syntax should be used to run the CLI read command?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Executes CLI commands after changing directory to /Users/alex/notes. | Missed | Passed |
| Passes path= journal/2026-03-28.md to the obsidian read command. | Missed | Passed |
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Use this skill only to detect transport and read or search a selected vault.
The official executable is obsidian; binary presence alone does not prove it
is usable.
Resolve the installed product root from this skill's own location, not from the vault or current working directory:
PRODUCT_ROOT=/absolute/path/to/installed/claude-obsidian
DETECT_TRANSPORT="$PRODUCT_ROOT/scripts/detect-transport.sh"
test -f "$DETECT_TRANSPORT"
Every ../wiki/references/ link in this file resolves the same way, relative
to this skill's own directory under $PRODUCT_ROOT, never relative to the
selected vault's wiki/ directory.
Probe without persisting host state:
bash "$DETECT_TRANSPORT" --peek --vault "$VAULT"
Trust available.cli.usable, not merely present or exit status. A supported
CLI can still be unavailable because the Obsidian app is not running, command
line access is disabled, or its response is an error. Use filesystem reads as
the portable fallback.
Persist a refreshed .vault-meta/transport.json only when the user or setup
workflow asks for a transport snapshot:
bash "$DETECT_TRANSPORT" --force --vault "$VAULT"
That file is derived runtime configuration, not knowledge content. Preserve a
