obsidian-mcp-tools and Obsidian-MCP
These are complements designed for different integration patterns: one provides semantic search and templating within existing MCP clients, while the other enables bidirectional sync specifically between Claude Code and Obsidian, allowing users to leverage both capabilities together depending on their workflow needs.
About obsidian-mcp-tools
jacksteamdev/obsidian-mcp-tools
Add Obsidian integrations like semantic search and custom Templater prompts to Claude or any MCP client.
Implements a two-component architecture with a local MCP server binary (built with reproducible builds and SLSA provenance) that bridges Claude Desktop to Obsidian vaults through the Local REST API plugin. Beyond semantic search and templates, it provides vault access controls, encrypted communication, and secure credential storage. The monorepo uses Bun workspaces to coordinate the Obsidian plugin, MCP server, and shared type definitions.
