Will it work on macOS?
From terminal:
claude plugin marketplace add obsidianmd/obsidian-skills
claude plugin install obsidian@obsidian-skills
From within a Claude Code session:
/plugin marketplace add obsidianmd/obsidian-skills
/plugin install obsidian@obsidian-skills
To get new skills later, run claude plugin update obsidian@obsidian-skills.
codex plugin marketplace add obsidianmd/obsidian-skills
Then install Obsidian from the plugin directory in Codex or the ChatGPT desktop app.
Install Obsidian from the Cursor Marketplace.
npx skills add https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-skills
To use ssh instead, if you have a GitHub SSH key set up:
npx skills add git@github.com:obsidianmd/obsidian-skills.git
Copy the plugins/obsidian/skills/ directory to .claude/skills/ in the root of your Obsidian vault (or whichever folder you're using with Claude Code). See more in the official Claude Skills documentation.
Copy the plugins/obsidian/skills/ directory into your Codex skills path (typically ~/.agents/skills). See the Agent Skills specification for the standard skill format.
Clone the entire repo into the OpenCode skills directory (~/.opencode/skills/):
git clone https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-skills.git ~/.opencode/skills/obsidian-skills
Do not copy only the inner skills/ folder — clone the full repo so the directory structure is ~/.opencode/skills/obsidian-skills/plugins/obsidian/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md.
OpenCode auto-discovers all SKILL.md files under ~/.opencode/skills/. No changes to opencode.json or any config file are needed. Skills become available after restarting OpenCode.
Then run bash setup.sh. It stops at the first error and is safe to run again. Servers and tests aren't started; it lists them at the end. Read it first.
Needs Git: xcode-select --install
git clone https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-skills.git cd obsidian-skills
Node.js
brew install node
In the maintainers' order. Do the README instructions above first — they cover steps outside the terminal.
claude plugin marketplace add obsidianmd/obsidian-skills claude plugin install obsidian@obsidian-skills /plugin marketplace add obsidianmd/obsidian-skills /plugin install obsidian@obsidian-skills codex plugin marketplace add obsidianmd/obsidian-skills npx skills add https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-skills npx skills add git@github.com:obsidianmd/obsidian-skills.git
