MCP tool allowing Open WebUI or Claude Desktop to retrieve files from your vault

This Obsidian plugin runs an MCP server (Model Context Protocol) that allows external LLM tools to interact with your vault. It supports HTTP transport for remote LLMs and stdio transport via a bridge script for Claude Desktop, providing a rich set of tools to read, search, create, update, and delete notes.
