obsidian-mcp-tools vs obsidian-everywhere

obsidian-mcp-tools: MCP Tools for Obsidian is a plugin that allows AI applications like Claude Desktop to securely interact with your Obsidian vault using the Model Context Protocol. It bridges your vault with AI assistants, enabling features like note reading, semantic search, and template execution through a secure local server.; obsidian-everywhere: Obsidian Everywhere transforms Obsidian notes into a structured graph and semantic knowledge base, providing token-budgeted AI context for remote agents. It integrates safe editing, optional local semantic search, and Git-backed version control, ensuring data integrity while keeping your vault on your local machine.

01Graph + semantic context engine: Parses markdown, indexes with SQLite FTS5, and uses in-memory graphology for rich graph traversal and token-budgeted context bundles.
02Remote Vault Bridge: Exposes graph and guarded write tools over authenticated Streamable HTTP, allowing external agents to access and modify your local vault securely.
03Optional local semantic search: Runs a multilingual embedding model entirely on your machine for meaning-based search, without requiring external API keys or cloud services.
04Safe writes and resilient mounts: Features partial edits, dry-run bulk operations, rollback snapshots, recoverable deletion, and a Beta mount guard for data integrity.
05Reviewable Git checkpoints: Allows agents to inspect repository status, bounded diffs, and local history, with commits and pushes requiring explicit preview and one-use approval IDs.
