What this skill does
Use this skill when the memory-wiki vault render mode is obsidian or the user wants the wiki to play nicely with Obsidian. Start from openclaw wiki status to confirm the vault mode and whether the official Obsidian CLI is available. Use openclaw wiki obsidian status before shelling out, then prefer the dedicated helpers like openclaw wiki obsidian search, openclaw wiki obsidian open, openclaw wiki obsidian command, and openclaw wiki obsidian daily. Prefer [[Wikilinks]], stable filenames, and frontmatter that works with Obsidian dashboards and Dataview-style queries. Keep generated sections repeatable so Obsidian users can safely add handwritten notes around them. If the official Obsidian CLI is enabled, check that it works before depending on it. Do not assume the app is installed, running, or configured. Pair renames with link repair.
