From the SKILL.md

# Route by vault methodology This skill returns filing suggestions. It does not write knowledge pages or move existing notes. If `.vault-meta/mode.json` is absent, use `generic`. If the file exists but is invalid, fail closed and repair it through a reviewed configuration operation before suggesting routes; never silently substitute Generic for corrupt user configuration. Resolve the installed product root from this skill's own location, not from the vault or current working directory: ```bash PRODUCT_ROOT=/absolute/path/to/installed/claude-obsidian CORE="$PRODUCT_ROOT/scripts/claude-obsidian.py" MODE_HELPER="$PRODUCT_ROOT/scripts/wiki-mode.py" test -f "$CORE" && test -f "$MODE_HELPER" ``` ## Read and route safely Always select the vault explicitly: ```bash python3 "$MODE_HELPER" --vault "$VAULT" get python3 "$MODE_HELPER" --vault "$VAULT" config python3 "$MODE_HELPER" --vault "$VAULT" route concept "Concept name" python3 "$MODE_HELPER" --vault "$VAULT" route source "Source title" ``` The helper validates the selected vault, confines paths, sanitizes names, and prints a suggestion only. A calling skill may override the suggestion when the user supplies a more specific project, area

About this skill
What does the wiki-mode skill do?

Read or configure the vault filing methodology and suggest destinations for planned knowledge creation under Generic, LYT, PARA, or Zettelkasten. Use for wiki mode, methodology mode, what is my vault mode, set vault mode, switch to PARA, use LYT, Zettelkasten setup, change mode, configure mode, or methodology routing. This skill does not save content or migrate notes.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add AgriciDaniel/claude-obsidian --skill wiki-mode --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From AgriciDaniel/claude-obsidian, a repository with 10,371 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
