Access and manage Obsidian vault
mcpizy install obsidiannpx -y obsidian-mcpIf Obsidian doesn't fit your stack, these Productivity MCP servers solve similar problems.
The Obsidian MCP server is an Productivity Model Context Protocol server that lets Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code with Copilot, and other MCP-compatible AI agents access and manage Obsidian vault. It exposes Obsidian's capabilities as tools the AI can call directly from your editor or CLI.
The fastest way is the MCPizy CLI: run `mcpizy install obsidian` and MCPizy will add the server to your `.claude.json` automatically. You can also install it manually by adding an entry under `mcpServers` in `.claude.json` with the command `npx -y obsidian-mcp` and restarting Claude Code.
Yes. The Obsidian MCP server is free and open source. You may still need a Obsidian account or API key to connect the server to the underlying service, but the MCP layer itself has no MCPizy subscription cost.
Yes. Any MCP-compatible client works — including Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor (via `.cursor/mcp.json`), Windsurf, VS Code with Copilot Chat, and custom agents built on the MCP SDK. The same install command targets all of them; only the config file path differs.
Once installed, your AI agent can access and manage Obsidian vault directly inside your conversation. Typical use cases include asking Claude Code or Cursor to run Obsidian operations, inspect results, chain Obsidian with other MCP servers (see our Workflow Recipes), and automate repetitive productivity tasks without leaving your editor.
