Create and edit Obsidian Flavored Markdown with wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties, and other Obsidian-specific syntax. Use when working with .md files in Obsidian, or when the user mentions wikilinks, callouts, frontmatter, tags, embeds, or Obsidian notes.
Obsidian extends CommonMark / GitHub Flavored Markdown with wikilinks, embeds, callouts, comments, and specialized properties. This skill covers only the Obsidian-specific extensions — standard Markdown syntax (headings, lists, bold/italic, code blocks, tables, footnotes, blockquotes, horizontal rules, HTML) is assumed knowledge.
[[Note Name]]
[[Note Name|Display Text]]
[[Note Name#Heading]]
[[Note Name#Heading|Custom Text]]
[[#Heading in same note]]
[[##Search all headings in vault]]
[[Note Name#^block-id]]
[[Note Name#^block-id|Custom Text]]
Define a block ID by adding ^block-id at the end of a paragraph:
This is a paragraph that can be linked to. ^my-block-id
For lists and quotes, add the block ID on a separate line:
> This is a quote
> With multiple lines
^quote-id
[[##heading]] Search for headings containing "heading"
[[^^block]] Search for blocks containing "block"
![[Note Name]]
![[Note Name#Heading]]
![[Note Name#^block-id]]
![[image.png]]
![[image.png|640x480]] Width x Height
![[image.png|300]] Width only (maintains aspect ratio)

![[document.pdf#page=3]]
