Obsidian Flavored Markdown Skill Create and edit valid Obsidian Flavored Markdown. Obsidian extends CommonMark and GFM with wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties, comments, and other syntax. This skill covers only Obsidian-specific extensions -- standard Markdown (headings, bold, italic, lists, quotes, code blocks, tables) is assumed knowledge. Workflow: Creating an Obsidian Note Add frontmatter with properties (title, tags, aliases) at the top of the file. See PROPERTIES.md for all property types. Write content using standard Markdown for structure, plus Obsidian-specific syntax below. Link related notes using wikilinks ([[Note]]) for internal vault connections, or standard Markdown links for external URLs. Embed content from other notes, images, or PDFs using the ![embed]] syntax. See [EMBEDS.md for all embed types. Add callouts for highlighted information using > !type] syntax. See [CALLOUTS.md for all callout types. Verify the note renders correctly in Obsidian's reading view.
