Overview

Copilot for Obsidian is a community plugin that adds an Agent chat to Obsidian, backed by OpenCode (downloaded and managed by the plugin), an existing Claude Code install, or Codex via the codex-acp adapter. Agents can read notes, use tools and create files with permissions you control. It also provides Projects, shared Skills, custom Commands, Quick Ask and Quick Chat, with models from Copilot-hosted plans, your own provider keys, or local endpoints.

Who it is for: Obsidian users who want coding-agent-style AI over their notes

Strengths

  • Works with Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode using your existing logins, no Copilot plan required
  • BYOK supports cloud, local and OpenAI-compatible providers; keys go in the Obsidian Keychain, not data.json
  • Skills, Commands and Projects are shared across the installed agents
  • Quick Chat, Quick Ask and custom Commands also work on mobile

Weaknesses

  • Agent mode is desktop-only because backends run as local processes
  • Multi-agent requests and hosted models need a paid Plus license
  • Backend for hosted features is closed source; hosted requests go to Brevilabs
  • Runs only inside Obsidian, so it is not usable standalone

What it needs

  • GPU optional
  • Needs Obsidian, OpenCode, Claude Code or Codex (via @agentclientprotocol/codex-acp)
  • Models: OpenCode-reported models, Claude Code, Codex, OpenAI-compatible providers, local models

Quick answers

Is obsidian-copilot open source?

Yes. Its code is on GitHub under the AGPL-3.0 license.

Does obsidian-copilot need a GPU?

No. It runs on a CPU and can use a GPU when you have one.
