Local Zotero, MinerU, Obsidian literature workflow with transactional Analysis notes.
Local Zotero, MinerU, Obsidian literature workflow with transactional Analysis notes. That is what the obsidian vault mcp mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
项目不绑定大模型供应商。MCP Tools 负责确定性的本地数据操作，Skills 负责把工具编排成可复用的科研工作流。
The server publishes 14 tools. What each one is for:
Codex — 原生 marketplace 插件、MCP 和 7 SkillsOpenCode — 项目本地 MCP 和 7 SkillsHermes — MCP 配置WorkBuddy — MCP 配置Skill — 工作流paper-qa — 单篇快速问答，默认不写入 Vaultfull-read — 单篇完整精读并保存 full_readpassage-qa — 定位具体段落、方法、数据或结论figure-qa — 解读图、表、Scheme 和方程compare-papers — 对用户选定论文建立可比性矩阵literature-review — 对文献池进行主题化综述concept-learning — 跨文献建立概念模型Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.
Configuration is passed through the environment: OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH, VAULT_PATH. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Plenty of planning and project tracking servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Obsidian Vault MCP's toolset — Codex, OpenCode, Hermes and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by luffysolution-svg; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Your workspace, on speaking terms with AI — search, read and write Notion pages and databases.
Issue tracking at the speed of conversation — Linear's official hosted server with OAuth and zero install.
Search and read your Drive — Docs, Sheets and files become context your assistant can actually use.
Your assistant inside the workspace — read channels, search history, post messages and tame the noise.
Metabase ships its own MCP endpoint — search your BI content, build and run queries, and save questions and dashboards without leaving the chat.
Stop letting your assistant hallucinate n8n node parameters — this server hands it the real schemas, templates and validation.
