Description
Manage Obsidian tasks via obsidian-cli. List, toggle, create, and update tasks from the terminal.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be a straightforward, instruction-only wrapper for the official Obsidian CLI. Before installing: (1) confirm you have Obsidian 1.12+ and a Catalyst license and that you've registered the official 'obsidian' command; (2) understand the skill will run 'obsidian' commands that can modify files in your local vault—consider a backup of your vault; (3) verify the 'obsidian' CLI on your PATH is the official binary you expect; (4) note the skill source/homepage is not provided—if you want tighter control, review the SKILL.md yourself and avoid allowing autonomous invocation (or disable model invocation) so the agent cannot run commands without your explicit go-ahead.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: obsidian-task
Version: 1.0.1
The skill bundle is benign. It describes a skill for managing Obsidian tasks using the official `obsidian` command-line interface. All instructions and examples in `SKILL.md` are directly related to this stated purpose, such as listing, toggling, creating, and updating tasks within an Obsidian vault. There is no evidence of prompt injection attempts against the agent, data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence mechanisms, or obfuscation. The skill relies on a locally installed and configured `obsidian` CLI, which is explicitly enabled by the user within Obsidian settings.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name and description say it manages Obsidian tasks via the Obsidian CLI and the SKILL.md exclusively references the 'obsidian' CLI and Obsidian app (including the Catalyst license requirement). There are no unrelated binaries, credentials, or config paths requested.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions only call the official 'obsidian' CLI and show concrete commands that operate on files inside the user's Obsidian vault. The SKILL.md does not instruct the agent to read unrelated system files, environment variables, or send data to external endpoints. Note: the CLI commands will modify local vault files and require the Obsidian app to be running.
Install Mechanism
No install spec or external downloads — instruction-only skill. This is the lowest-risk install surface because nothing is written to disk by the skill itself.
Credentials
The skill declares no environment variables, secrets, or config paths. The lack of credentials is appropriate for a local CLI wrapper.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request elevated or persistent platform privileges. It can be invoked autonomously (platform default), which is expected for skills, but it does not modify other skills or system-wide settings.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install obsidian-task - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
