Obsidian Index Server

Example Use Cases

• 1

  Semantic search over an Obsidian vault to retrieve relevant notes by meaning rather than keyword matches.

• 2

  Programmatic access to recently modified Markdown notes via MCP resources addressed with obsidian:// URLs.

• 3

  An index that stays in sync with local vault changes (watch/reindex) and persists metadata in a local database.

Description

This server indexes notes in one or more Obsidian vaults and exposes recently modified Markdown notes to MCP clients using obsidian:// URL addressing. It provides a semantic search tool (search-notes) to retrieve relevant notes by meaning, and serves notes with the text/markdown media type. The server supports reindexing, watching vaults for changes, and stores index/metadata in a local database so agents can access up-to-date content programmatically.
