Index Flow

Smart renumber and remove numbering for Markdown files and folders in Obsidian.

✨ Why Index Flow?

Managing files and folders with numeric prefixes (e.g. 01., 02., 03.) can quickly become messy when inserting, reordering, or cleaning items.

Index Flow provides:

  • Clean renumbering
  • Safe numbering removal
  • Independent numbering for files and folders
  • Collision protection
  • Undo support
  • Visual preview before applying changes

🚀 Features

🧮 Renumber Markdown Files

  • Automatically renumbers .md files inside a folder
  • Zero-padded format (01., 02., 03.)
  • Strict mode (no silent auto-fixes)
  • Safe two-phase renaming to prevent collisions
  • Visual diff preview with highlighted changes

Example:

Untitled 1.md → 01. Untitled 1.md

❌ Remove File or Folder Numbering

  • Removes leading numeric prefixes (e.g. 01. )
  • Smart collision handling
    Automatically appends 1, 2, 3 if needed
  • Visual preview with highlighted removals and additions

Example:

  1. Untitled 1.md → Untitled 1.md

📁 Renumber Folders

  • Renumbers immediate subfolders without touching nested levels
  • Keeps folder numbering independent from file numbering
  • Supports safe numbering removal and collision handling
  • Uses the same preview, selection, rollback, and undo workflow

↩ Undo Last Operation

  • Fully revert the last batch operation
  • Safe and predictable

🛡 Safety

  • No external network requests
  • No analytics
  • No access outside your vault
  • No modification of note content
  • All file operations use Obsidian's official API

📦 Installation

🎯 Design Philosophy
