smith-and-web/obsidian-mcp-server
MCP server for Obsidian vault management - enables Claude and other AI assistants to read, write, search, and organize your notes
Implements MCP over Server-Sent Events (SSE) transport for remote vault access without local installation, alongside stdio mode for direct integration. Provides granular operations including section-level editing, YAML frontmatter manipulation, regex find-and-replace, and backlink detection, with optional compact response mode to reduce token consumption by 40-60% for large vaults.
