What are Obsidian Bases?

Obsidian Bases are YAML-based files that define dynamic, database-like views of notes in an Obsidian vault, allowing users to see data as tables, cards, or lists.

Does it support custom calculations within notes?

Absolutely. It can define formula properties to perform arithmetic, format dates, and execute conditional logic (if/then) based on note metadata.

Can this skill handle complex data filtering?

Yes, the skill supports advanced nested filtering using logic like 'and', 'or', and 'not' to precisely target specific notes based on tags, paths, or properties.

What view types can Claude create with this skill?

Claude can configure Table, Cards, List, and Map views, each with customizable sorting, grouping, and property display settings.

About

The Obsidian Bases Manager skill empowers Claude Code to architect and maintain sophisticated data structures within Obsidian vaults. By leveraging the .base file format, it enables the creation of interactive tables, card galleries, and lists that automatically aggregate note metadata. It is particularly useful for users who need to perform complex data analysis on their personal knowledge base, offering support for recursive filtering logic, custom formula properties, and automated statistical summaries without requiring manual data entry.
