MCP server for Obsidian — access your vault from any AI agent, even when your machine is off. Powered by Self-hosted LiveSync.
Obsidian Sync MCP gives AI agents read/write access to your Obsidian vault via the Model Context Protocol. It supports filesystem mode (directly reading vault files) and CouchDB mode (via Self-hosted LiveSync). You can run it locally or deploy to the cloud for 24/7 availability.

Sync capability means the vault is accessible without the Obsidian app as a dependency.
