About Obsidian Memory MCP

This project is a modified version of Anthropic's memory server that has been adapted for Obsidian integration. The original server stored memories in JSON format, while this version stores them as individual Markdown files with Obsidian-compatible [[link]] syntax for graph visualization.

Features

  • Markdown Storage: Individual.md files for each entity

  • Obsidian Integration: Uses [[link]] syntax for graph visualization

  • Knowledge Graph: Store entities, relations, and observations

  • Search Functionality: Query across all stored memories

  • YAML Frontmatter: Metadata stored in frontmatter
