Obsidian plugins with #command#

The Templater plugin adds a scripting based template system to notes so you can insert variables, function output and custom logic instead of relying on static text blocks. It fits people who want templates to react to context, generate dynamic content and cut down repetitive note work. JavaScript support is a central part of how it works, which makes room for deeper automation and more technical workflows. It can also run system commands when a template needs to reach outside the vault.

The Advanced URI plugin turns URI links into a control surface for your vault. It lets you open files, headings, blocks, lines, workspaces, settings pages, bookmarks and canvas views from a browser, script, terminal command, or note link. You can choose where things open too, including tabs, splits, windows, popovers, or silently in the background. Writing actions are part of it: create notes, overwrite text, append or prepend content, push clipboard data into notes, run search and replace with RegEx, call commands, and work with frontmatter properties. It also supports file lookup through paths, names, aliases, daily notes, and UIDs, which makes automation more reliable when notes get renamed.

The Note Toolbar plugin lets you build note specific toolbars that surface commands, links, menus and script driven actions where they are needed. It can attach toolbars by folder rules or a chosen property, place them at different spots in a note, show them for selected text, and expose them through the ribbon, mobile navigation bars, callouts, commands and URIs. Styling is a big part of the plugin, with controls for layout, wrapping, stickiness, auto hide, alignment and button or tab like presentation.

The Buttons plugin enhances Obsidian by allowing users to execute commands, open links, and automate workflows with customizable buttons. It offers multiple button types, including command execution, URL navigation, math calculations, and template-based note creation. Features like inline buttons enable seamless integration within text, while swap buttons allow cycling through multiple actions with a single click. Users can personalize buttons with custom colors, CSS classes, or templater commands for dynamic functionality. Additional options like removing or replacing content and creating new notes streamline note-taking. This plugin is ideal for organizing workflows and enhancing productivity within the Obsidian ecosystem.

The Local REST API plugin exposes a secure local API for working with vault files from scripts, browser extensions and AI clients. It supports full file CRUD, reading or updating the active note, tag queries, command listing and execution, simple text search, and structured search with JsonLogic. A standout part is note patching: you can target headings, block references, or frontmatter keys and append, replace, move, or delete just that section instead of rewriting the whole file. The plugin also ships with an MCP endpoint that mirrors the core API, so external clients can talk to the vault through the same authenticated surface. It includes extension hooks for other plugins to register extra routes and MCP tools.

The Shell commands plugin allows users to define, customize, and execute shell or terminal commands directly from Obsidian. Commands can be run via the command palette or assigned to hotkeys, streamlining access to external applications and system utilities. It supports dynamic variables like file path, file name, and timestamps, which can be used to customize commands. Users can specify the working directory for commands and capture the output of commands back into their notes. This plugin enhances Obsidian's functionality by bridging it with system-level commands, offering a powerful tool for automation and customization.

The Open Plugin Settings plugin streamlines access to Obsidian plugin settings by allowing users to create commands that open the settings tab of any specified plugin. Users can add commands for individual plugins, refresh the plugin list to remove deleted or disabled ones, and even search and open settings for unregistered plugins. This plugin simplifies navigation, especially for users managing multiple plugins, by reducing the steps needed to access configuration options. It includes support for multiple languages, such as English and French, and provides customizable commands for efficient workflows.

The Command Tracker plugin for Obsidian provides a valuable tool for optimizing your workflow by tracking the frequency and usage patterns of various commands. With this plugin, you can easily identify which commands are used most frequently and which ones are rarely used, allowing you to make informed decisions about assigning hotkeys or reassigning them to more useful commands. The plugin also keeps track of the date of last use for each command, enabling you to see how your usage patterns change over time. This information can help you streamline your workflow and eliminate unnecessary clutter in your Obsidian setup.

The Commander plugin lets you place commands in more parts of the interface instead of leaving them buried in menus. It can add, remove, edit and reorder commands from its settings, and it can hide commands added by the app or by other plugins when you do not want them visible. The plugin also lets you decide which devices should show each command, which matters if you sync the same vault across desktop and mobile. Its focus stays on command placement and interface control rather than note content. The result is a cleaner layout with quicker access to actions you use often, while still giving you a way to trim clutter and keep different devices set up differently.

The Line Commands plugin is a game-changer for Obsidian users who often find themselves working with multiple lines of text. This plugin adds five new commands to your toolbar, allowing you to quickly select, copy, cut, paste before, and paste after individual lines of text. Whether you're on desktop or mobile, these commands make it easy to manipulate your text without having to manually select entire blocks of code. With the "cut lines" command, you can now easily move lines around with precision, even on small mobile screens.

The Code Blocks commands plugin streamlines inserting and managing code blocks by providing dedicated commands and a quick backtick-triggered menu. Instead of manually typing markup, you can pick from a list of supported languages, which the plugin sorts based on your usage patterns. It also supports custom syntax highlighting, letting you define new markups along with optional language names or titles for better retrieval. This reduces friction when documenting snippets, writing technical notes, or sharing examples. With intuitive keyboard interaction and personalized markup lists, it makes handling multi-language code snippets inside your vault faster and more consistent, especially for users who frequently switch between languages or need clear highlighting.

The URI Commands plugin enables users to add custom URI-based commands to the Obsidian command palette, enhancing integration with Obsidian's URI scheme and other system-supported URI schemes. It allows for dynamic placeholders such as file name, path, content, and metadata, which are automatically URL-encoded for seamless use. This flexibility supports a wide range of use cases, from opening vaults or specific notes in Obsidian to integrating with external programs and services like email, Spotify, or HackMD. Users can customize URIs to perform tasks like appending text to a daily note, opening external websites, or interacting with metadata fields. The plugin is compatible with other tools like Advanced URI and Hotkey Helper for extended functionality.

The Commando plugin is designed to revolutionize your command use experience in Obsidian by allowing you to repeat commands with ease and precision. With Commando, you can set a command to run multiple times, eliminating the need for tedious button-clicking or manual iteration. The plugin also introduces a unique "Commando Palette" that offers customizable iteration counts, delays, and prompts to ensure you're in control throughout the process. Additionally, Commando integrates seamlessly with Obsidian's Vim Mode, allowing you to use vim keybinds as an iteration count. Whether you need to perform a simple task or a complex operation, Commando empowers you to take control of your workflow and streamline your productivity.

The Ribbon Folder plugin turns the ribbon into a place for grouped commands instead of a long row of separate buttons. You can create custom groups, give each one a Lucide or SVG icon and open its commands from a small menu when you click or hover over the button. Each command in the group can also get its own display name and icon, which helps when you want a cleaner sidebar without losing quick access to actions you use often. Menu display can be set to icons, labels or both, and the plugin supports English and simplified Chinese. It suits people who rely on the ribbon but want it organised around tasks rather than a cluttered list of standalone commands.

The Magiedit Obsidian plugin connects your vault to a magiedit publishing workflow. It adds a single command that takes the file you currently have open, shows the publishers already configured in magiedit, lets you choose one and sends the note content to the magiedit API for publishing. The setup is small but important. You need the URL of the magiedit instance you want to use and an API key generated from the magiedit web app.

The Gay Toolbar plugin replaces parts of the default mobile toolbar with a floating, collapsible toolbar that sits above the keyboard and can be reshaped in detail. Buttons support tap, long press and swipe actions, with separate icons and drag based slot editing in edit mode. You can change button colors, set a solid or CSS based background, adjust rows and columns independently and save multiple toolbar layouts to reload later. The toolbar can collapse into a single floating button and can be limited to mobile only. It also includes a command editor for user written JavaScript commands that become local commands. The plugin notes there is no outbound telemetry and that custom commands run only code saved by the user.

The Chorded Hotkeys plugin enables users to quickly trigger actions in Obsidian by pressing a combination of keys, much like playing a musical chord. This can include text insertion, template pasting, or command execution without needing modifier keys like Ctrl, Alt, or Shift. Users can easily create their own chords by defining a set of keys and associating them with specific actions. Additionally, the plugin supports multiple chord types, such as text, command, file, and template-based actions. A unique feature is the ability to move the cursor with the use of tags in text chords. This plugin is ideal for users who frequently repeat commands or insert templates, making their workflow faster and more efficient.

The Tabs plugin turns a fenced `tabs` block into a tabbed interface for note content. It lets each tab hold plain text, regular code blocks or even another tabs block, so nested layouts are possible without leaving markdown. The plugin includes layout controls for placing the tab bar at the top, left, right or bottom, plus single row scrolling and multi line navigation modes. Titles can be decorated, tabs can be edited directly from the rendered view with auto saving and `Ctrl+S` and deleted tabs can be restored with undo. It also supports creating tabs from clipboard content and adds a command to create or convert selected text into a tabs component.

The Automation plugin is a game-changer for Obsidian users who want to streamline their workflow. This plugin listens to specific events and triggers commands, making it easy to automate repetitive tasks. With Automation, you can customize your experience by setting up custom commands that execute based on certain conditions. Whether you're looking to save time or increase productivity, this plugin is a must-have for anyone seeking to get more out of Obsidian.

The Command Block List plugin allows you to customize the Obsidian command palette by hiding unwanted commands. Simply add the commands you don't want to see to the plugin settings, and they will be removed from the list. This is a convenient way to declutter your command palette and reduce distractions while working in Obsidian. With this plugin, you can focus on the tasks at hand without being bothered by unnecessary commands.
