What it does

Granola To Obsidian is an agent skill from harperreed/dotfiles. Use when asked to import, sync, or add Granola meeting notes into the Obsidian vault. Triggers on "meeting notes", "Granola", "import meetings", "add notes from this week", or any request to move meeting content into Obsidian.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Meeting notes and agendas. It works with Obsidian. The repository describes itself as: Dotfiles. Managed by YADM.

  • Add Granola meeting notes into the Obsidian vault
  • Import meetings
  • Add notes from this week

Example prompts

  • “meeting notes”
  • “Granola”
  • “import meetings”
  • “/granola-to-obsidian”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Confirm Date Range
  2. List Meetings from Granola
  3. Get Full Meeting Details
  4. Read Existing Notes for Format Reference
  5. Check for Duplicates
  6. Create the Note Files

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b78c10e. 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 markdown).

    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

Granola To Obsidian loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 62 tokens; SKILL.md has 528 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~62
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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 528 words (~1,249 tokens).

“Import Granola meeting notes into the 2389 Obsidian vault with correct formatting.”
