Obsidian

Obsidian is installed for owais by Home Manager from conf/shared.nix. The same configuration enables Obsidian’s command-line interface. It applies to both nix-haxorus and nix-baxcalibur after rebuild.

The Nix package provides both obsidian and its obsidian-cli helper. Do not use Register CLI in Obsidian’s settings. The desktop app runs through the Nixpkgs Electron wrapper, so Obsidian mistakes the shared electron executable for its launcher. Home Manager already puts the correct commands on PATH.

The desktop app must be running before most CLI commands can access a vault. Verify the CLI with:

obsidian version

Vault sync is planned to use the private Forgejo repository on Baxcalibur over Tailscale SSH. Keep device-local Obsidian state out of that repository with a vault .gitignore.
