README

Obsidian Skills Manager

**Manage AI agent skills visually inside Obsidian** — install, toggle, update, and organize skills for Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and other AI coding agents.

What Are Skills?

Skills are packaged instructions in `SKILL.md` format that teach AI agents specialized capabilities. Each skill lives in its own folder with a `SKILL.md` file containing YAML frontmatter (metadata) and markdown instructions. This plugin provides a GUI to manage them — similar to how Obsidian manages community plugins.
