# Obsidian MCP

A local [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server that lets MCP-compatible assistants safely read and modify explicitly configured Obsidian vaults.

Version 2 supports both MCP `2026-07-28` and 2025-era clients by default, and requires Node.js 22 or newer. It works directly with Markdown files, so Obsidian does not need to be open. Legacy protocol and v1 positional-path compatibility are deprecated and print exact migration instructions to stderr.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> MCP clients can invoke destructive tools. Back up important vaults, review client permission prompts, and use revision preconditions for concurrently edited notes.

## Quick start

Node.js 22 or newer is required:

```bash
node --version # v22 or newer
```

Run with `npx` without installing the package globally. Pinning the major version receives compatible 2.x updates without automatically crossing a future major version:

```bash
npx -y obsidian-mcp@2 serve --vault notes=/absolute/pa
