GithubObvec - AI Search for Your Second Brain
Let Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor search your Obsidian vault using natural language. Ask questions about your notes, discover connections, and find anything — powered by semantic search via MCP.
Why Obvec?
Your Obsidian vault is your second brain. But AI assistants can't access it. Obvec bridges that gap — install the plugin, and your notes become instantly searchable by any MCP-compatible AI.
Ask things like:
- "What did I write about marketing strategy?"
- "Find my meeting notes from last week"
- "What are my notes related to machine learning?"
It understands meaning, not just keywords. Works in 100+ languages including English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean.
How It Works
- Sign up at obsidian.10xboost.org and get your API key
- Install this plugin and paste your API key
- Your vault syncs automatically in the background
- Add the MCP endpoint to your AI assistant — done!
