What it does

Seekstone is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables direct access to Obsidian vaults from AI tools like Claude. It reads your vault files directly from disk, eliminating the need for the Local REST API plugin and significantly reducing payload sizes—approximately 575 times smaller than traditional REST-based approaches. This makes it ideal for users who want efficient, low-context-tax integration between Obsidian and AI models.

How to set up

Installation is straightforward via npm. Simply run npx y obsidianmcpseekstone or npx y seekstone in your terminal. The tool connects directly to your Obsidian vault on disk without requiring any additional plugins or local REST API configuration, making setup quick and dependency-free.
