Navigate and update your Obsidian vault through Neotask on OpenClaw

What You Can Do

Neotask integrates with your Obsidian vault through OpenClaw, giving you conversational access to your local knowledge base — your personal wiki, always within reach.

Vault Search

Search your entire Obsidian vault by note content, frontmatter properties, tags, or file names. Find connected ideas and related notes without manually navigating your folder structure.

Note Creation

Create new markdown notes in any folder with proper Obsidian formatting: frontmatter, headings, bullet points, wikilinks, tags, and code blocks. Capture ideas in the right format instantly.

Note Reading & Updates

Read the full content of any note. Append new content, update frontmatter properties, or modify specific sections. Keep your knowledge base current without switching to the Obsidian app.

Wikilink Management

Create notes with correctly formatted wikilinks to existing notes. Neotask understands Obsidian's `[[note-name]]` link format and helps you maintain a connected graph.

Tag & Property Queries

Find all notes with a specific tag, filter by frontmatter properties like status or type, and browse your vault by the metadata you've defined.

Folder Navigation

List folders and files within your vault, understand your organizational structure, and navigate to any section of your knowledge base by name.

Try Asking

  • "Search my Obsidian vault for all notes tagged #project that mention 'deadline'"
  • "Create a new note in my 'Areas/Work' folder called 'Q2 Planning' with frontmatter: date, status: active, tags: planning work"
  • "Show me the content of my 'System Design Principles' note in Obsidian"
  • "Append a new section '## March Update' to my 'Project: Website Redesign' note"
  • "List all notes in my Obsidian vault that have the frontmatter property 'status: draft'"
  • "Find all notes in my vault that link to the '[[API Design]]' note"
  • "Create a daily note for today using my standard template with sections for Tasks, Notes, and Reflections"
  • "What files are in my 'Resources/Books' folder in Obsidian?"

    • Pro Tips

  • Obsidian vaults are local files — Neotask accesses your vault through the local file system, so your notes stay private and never leave your machine.
  • Use frontmatter consistently and Neotask becomes a powerful metadata query engine: filter by any frontmatter property you define.
  • Wikilinks are central to Obsidian's value — ask Neotask to create notes with links to related existing notes for an automatically connected graph.
  • For daily notes, describe your template once and Neotask creates daily notes in the exact format you use every day.
  • Combine Obsidian with your other tools: pull information from Jira, Notion, or email and have Neotask create or update the corresponding Obsidian note to keep your PKM current.
