This rule provides instruction for interacting with the Obsidian API
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
What it does
Using Obsidian API is an agent skill from aitorllj93/obsidian-lovely-bases. This rule provides instruction for interacting with the Obsidian API
Its SKILL.md is about 380 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It works with Obsidian. The repository describes itself as: Beautiful, visual bases views for Obsidian.
Example prompts
- “/using-obsidian-api”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 805e30f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are typescript).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Using Obsidian API loads about 379 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 57 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 57 words (~379 tokens).
“The Obsidian context exposes shared Obsidian variables.”
