What it does

Obsidian CLI Bases And Bookmarks is an agent skill from hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins. Use this skill when the user needs official desktop Obsidian CLI Bases or Bookmarks workflows, including base discovery, view/query operations, base item creation, and bookmark management. Keep this skill separate from general note CRUD, runtime admin, Sync/Publish, and devtools diagnostics.

Its SKILL.md is about 830 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including reference files and assets (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/limitations-and-boundaries.md` and `references/obsidian-cli-bases-bookmarks-playbook.md`).

It works with Obsidian. The repository describes itself as: A curated list of awesome OpenAI Codex / ChatGPT plugins, skills, and resources. The 1 Codex Marketplace. See live plugins at: https://hol.org/plugins/best-codex-plugins. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user needs official desktop Obsidian CLI Bases
  • Bookmarks workflows
  • Including base discovery
  • View/query operations

Example prompts

  • “/obsidian-cli-bases-and-bookmarks”

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Use only documented official Bases and Bookmarks CLI commands.
  2. Prefer read-only discovery first for mixed flows: bases, base:views, base:query, bookmarks.
  3. Use structured output (json, csv, tsv, md, paths) whenever supported and useful.
  4. Treat base:create as a mutating operation and summarize created-file side effects before executing.
  5. For bookmark, require explicit target type (file, folder, search, or url) and avoid silent assumptions.
  6. If base file/path, view name, or bookmark target is ambiguous, stop and ask for disambiguation.
  7. Keep scope narrow to requested base/bookmark workflow; do not drift into unrelated note-wide edits.
  8. If request is outside official Bases/Bookmarks surface, say so and stop.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9e7b281. 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 bash).

    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

Obsidian CLI Bases And Bookmarks loads about 830 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 81 tokens; SKILL.md has 358 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~81
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~830
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.4k

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.

description
Use this skill when the user needs official desktop Obsidian CLI Bases or Bookmarks workflows, including base discovery, view/query operations, base item creation, and bookmark management. Keep this skill separate from general note CRUD, runtime admin, Sync/Publish, and devtools diagnostics.

Obsidian CLI Bases and Bookmarks

Use this skill for Obsidian Bases and Bookmarks operations through official desktop obsidian CLI commands.

Routing contract

Use this skill when:

  • the user asks to inspect or query .base files
  • the user asks to list base views or query base results in structured formats
  • the user asks to create an item through a base view
  • the user asks to list or add bookmarks

Do not use this skill when:

  • the request is primarily note CRUD, tasks, templates, link cleanup, or history/diff workflows
  • the request is plugin/theme/snippet runtime administration
  • the request is Sync/Publish operations
  • the request is explicitly a named one-command workflow ID (route to obsidian-cli-workflows)
  • the request is runtime diagnostics/eval/CDP workflows

Preconditions

Assume these must be true before relying on this skill:

  • obsidian command is installed and registered
  • Obsidian desktop app is available locally
  • first command may launch Obsidian if it is not running
  • in Codex Desktop on macOS, direct launches may crash; use the sanitized wrapper

Codex-safe launcher

In Codex Desktop on macOS, prefer this wrapper:

bash
script -q /dev/null /usr/local/bin/zsh -ilc 'unset __CFBundleIdentifier LaunchInstanceID XPC_SERVICE_NAME CODEX_CI CODEX_SANDBOX CODEX_SHELL; export TERM=xterm-256color; obsidian ...'

Escalate the wrapped command only when required by sandbox boundaries.

Core operating policy

  1. Use only documented official Bases and Bookmarks CLI commands.
  2. Prefer read-only discovery first for mixed flows: bases, base:views, base:query, bookmarks.
  3. Use structured output (json, csv, tsv, md, paths) whenever supported and useful.
  4. Treat base:create as a mutating operation and summarize created-file side effects before executing.
  5. For bookmark, require explicit target type (file, folder, search, or url) and avoid silent assumptions.
  6. If base file/path, view name, or bookmark target is ambiguous, stop and ask for disambiguation.
  7. Keep scope narrow to requested base/bookmark workflow; do not drift into unrelated note-wide edits.
  8. If request is outside official Bases/Bookmarks surface, say so and stop.

Risk levels

  • low: bases, base:views, base:query, bookmarks
  • medium: bookmark
  • high: base:create

  • capability used
  • risk level (low, medium, high)
  • execution mode (direct or escalated)
  • exact command(s) run or proposed
  • output format used (if structured)
  • side-effect summary (for mutating actions)
  • files/bookmarks affected, if any
  • blocking reason, if any
