1# Obsidian Flavored Markdown Skill
2 
3Create and edit valid Obsidian Flavored Markdown. Obsidian extends CommonMark and GFM with wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties, comments, and other syntax. This skill covers only Obsidian-specific extensions -- standard Markdown (headings, bold, italic, lists, quotes, code blocks, tables) is assumed knowledge.

5## Workflow: Creating an Obsidian Note
6 
71. **Add frontmatter** with properties (title, tags, aliases) at the top of the file. See [PROPERTIES.md](references/PROPERTIES.md) for all property types.
82. **Write content** using standard Markdown for structure, plus Obsidian-specific syntax below.
93. **Link related notes** using wikilinks (`[[Note]]`) for internal vault connections, or standard Markdown links for external URLs.
104. **Embed content** from other notes, images, or PDFs using the `![[embed]]` syntax. See [EMBEDS.md](references/EMBEDS.md) for all embed types.
115. **Add callouts** for highlighted information using `> [!type]` syntax. See [CALLOUTS.md](references/CALLOUTS.md) for all callout types.
126. **Verify** the note renders correctly in Obsidian's reading view.

14> When choosing between wikilinks and Markdown links: use `[[wikilinks]]` for notes within the vault (Obsidian tracks renames automatically) and `[text](url)` for external URLs only.
