Install in Claude Code

Claude Code and a copy of a local Markdown vault.

Open the pinned GitHub source below and retrieve the `obsidian-plugin/skills/vault-stubs/` directory from that revision.
Copy it into `.claude/skills/vault-stubs/` in your project, keeping `SKILL.md` and its companion files together.
Open Claude Code in the project root and describe the example task so Claude can load the skill when relevant.

Example task

Create Zettelkasten/Notebook.md with a Friday archive rule and work/z/Notebook.md with an additional tag check. Ask Claude for a read-only classification and proposed merge.

What to check

The draft flags a duplicate with unique content and keeps the tag check in the proposed canonical note before showing a redirect.
