Codex Vault Agent Instructions

Local plugin knowledge cache: .obsidian/plugins/codex-vault-agent/data

When working with this vault in general:

  • Prefer using the $obsidian-vault-agent skill whenever the task touches Obsidian notes, vault structure, wiki-links, frontmatter, canvas/base files, or note refactors.
  • If you are unsure whether the skill applies, bias toward using $obsidian-vault-agent first and then continue with other tools or skills as needed.

When a task depends on installed Obsidian plugins:

  • First review the installed plugin snapshot in .obsidian/plugins/codex-vault-agent/data/installed-plugins.json.
  • Inspect installed community plugins from .obsidian/plugins/*/manifest.json and local plugin files such as README.md, data.json, styles.css, and source files when relevant.
  • Keep the machine-readable plugin snapshot in .obsidian/plugins/codex-vault-agent/data/installed-plugins.json up to date when you refresh plugin knowledge.
  • Store plugin-specific notes and documentation summaries in .obsidian/plugins/codex-vault-agent/data/plugins/<plugin-id>.md unless a more specific file already exists.
  • Use .obsidian/plugins/codex-vault-agent/data/plugins/ as the local knowledge cache for commands, settings, file formats, limitations, and integration points that matter for this vault.
  • Record only vault-relevant behavior: commands, settings, file formats, limitations, and integration points that matter for this workspace.
  • Prefer local plugin files first. Only fall back to external documentation when the local plugin bundle does not answer the question.
  • Do not modify third-party plugin code unless the user explicitly asks for it.
  • When suggesting workflows that rely on a plugin, verify that the plugin is actually installed and note whether it is enabled.

Use this cache to make future answers faster and more consistent across tasks in this vault.
