Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Manage Obsidian vaults through the CouchDB database that powers Obsidian LiveSync. Capture, process, file, audit, tidy, and manage tasks — all via CLI or Node.js API. Prerequisites: CouchDB with LiveSync configured, E2EE disabled.
Open source: github.com/philmossman/obsidian-curator (MIT) npm provenance: Published via GitHub Actions OIDC with Sigstore attestation — cryptographically verifiable build provenance No lifecycle scripts: No preinstall, install, or postinstall scripts — npm install only copies files Minimal dependencies: Only nano (CouchDB client) and date-fns (date parsing) Local network only: Connects to your CouchDB instance (user-configured host/port). No external telemetry, no phone-home, no data leaves your network Credentials: Stored locally in ~/.obsidian-curator/config.json — never transmitted except to your own CouchDB E2EE note: LiveSync E2EE must be disabled because the tool reads/writes vault documents directly via CouchDB. This is a LiveSync architectural requirement, not a security compromise by this tool
Run the interactive wizard — it tests the CouchDB connection live: obsidian-curator init Configures: CouchDB connection, vault structure preset (PARA/Zettelkasten/Johnny Decimal/Flat/Custom), AI provider (OpenAI/Anthropic/Ollama/None), task projects. Config location: ~/.obsidian-curator/config.json
obsidian-curator capture "Quick thought about project X" obsidian-curator capture "Meeting notes from standup" --source meeting
Enrich inbox notes with tags, summary, and suggested folder: obsidian-curator process obsidian-curator process --limit 5 --dry-run obsidian-curator process --force # re-process already-processed notes
Route processed notes to canonical vault folders: obsidian-curator file obsidian-curator file --dry-run --min-confidence 0.8
Check vault structure against configured canonical folders: obsidian-curator audit
Find duplicates, structure violations, dead notes. With AI, ambiguous cases are triaged automatically: obsidian-curator tidy --dry-run obsidian-curator tidy --checks dupes,stubs
obsidian-curator tasks # list open tasks obsidian-curator tasks --project Work --priority high obsidian-curator task "call dentist next Tuesday" # create task (parses dates, priority, project) obsidian-curator done "dentist" # mark done by partial title match
