Enables interaction with Obsidian vaults for file operations, content search, and metadata management, facilitating note-taking and knowledge base organization.
  1. Enable the Obsidian Local REST API Plugin

  2. Configure an API Key in the Plugin

    • Open the plugin’s settings inside Obsidian.
    • Set a new API Key (or copy the existing one) in the “API Key” field.
    • Save your plugin settings.
  3. (Optional) Enable the HTTP Server for Easier Connection

    • Still within the plugin settings, enable the “Non-encrypted (HTTP) server” option for a simpler connection.
    • Note the server URL (e.g., http://127.0.0.1:27123). If you prefer, you can use the default HTTPS server instead (see notes below).
  4. Add Environment Variables in FastMCP

    • In the FastMCP connection interface, click the Install Now button to add environment variables.
    • Fill in the following fields with your info:
      • OBSIDIAN_API_KEY: Paste the API Key you copied from the plugin settings.
      • OBSIDIAN_BASE_URL: Enter the server URL from the plugin (e.g., http://127.0.0.1:27123 if you enabled the HTTP server).
      • Optionally set:
        • OBSIDIAN_VERIFY_SSL: Set to false if you’re using the default HTTPS server (self-signed certificate) or leave as-is for HTTP.
        • OBSIDIAN_ENABLE_CACHE: Set to true (default) to enable faster search and improved performance.
  5. Save and Connect

    • Click to save changes in the FastMCP interface.
    • Test the connection to ensure setup was successful.

Notes:

  • The API Key and Server URL are required for FastMCP to connect.
  • If you use HTTPS rather than HTTP, you must set OBSIDIAN_VERIFY_SSL to false unless you have configured your system to trust the self-signed certificate.
  • You can always view or reset the API key in the Obsidian plugin’s settings if needed.
