Obsidian
Notes in your vault
Obsidian lets agents search, read and write the notes in your vault, so the vault can be their memory. The local server connects to the Local REST API plugin in the Obsidian app on this computer. The plugin's API key is passed to the local server as one environment variable. Keep Obsidian open while agents use it.
How to connect Obsidian to OpenBot
Open Obsidian in OpenBot
Press Open in OpenBot on this page, or find Obsidian in the app's Apps tab. Get the app first if it is not on this computer.
Add your API key
Press Connect and enter this value. OpenBot keeps it on the computer that runs OpenBot.
- API key - In Obsidian, open Settings > Local REST API. Copy the API key and turn on "Enable non-encrypted (HTTP) server".
Give an agent a task
Ask an agent for work that needs Obsidian, such as one of the example prompts below. The agent uses the plugin's tools to do it.
