name: obsidian-bases description: Explain, draft, and validate Obsidian Bases .base files with filters, formulas, properties, summaries, and table, card, or list views.

Obsidian Bases

Use this as a compact workflow and fallback syntax reference. Prefer a separately installed kepano/obsidian-skills obsidian-bases skill, then the current official Bases syntax, for detailed or version-sensitive fields and functions.

Answer design and syntax questions read-only. For a requested .base edit, resolve the user vault and use one inspected transaction; never write the file directly.

Resolve the installed product root from this skill's own location, not from the vault or current working directory:

PRODUCT_ROOT=/absolute/path/to/installed/claude-obsidian
CORE="$PRODUCT_ROOT/scripts/claude-obsidian.py"
test -f "$CORE"

Every ../wiki/references/ link in this file resolves the same way, relative to this skill's own directory under $PRODUCT_ROOT, never relative to the selected vault's wiki/ directory.

Workflow

Inspect representative note properties and any existing .base file.
