Obsidian plugins with #command-palette#

The Quick Switcher++ plugin expands the default switcher into a broader navigation hub for moving through notes, headings, symbols and open editors without leaving the keyboard. It adds dedicated modes for workspaces, bookmarks, commands, related items and even vault switching, so one search surface can handle both content lookup and workspace movement. The plugin also surfaces backlinks, outgoing links and nearby files when you want to jump through connected material instead of searching by name. Quick filters, preview controls and custom triggers help shape the result list around the way you work.

The Custom Commands plugin lets users define personalized commands to speed up common workflows like opening specific notes, creating templated files, inserting dynamic text snippets, or chaining multiple actions together. Each command type-Open, Create, Insert, and Sequence-can be customized with placeholders like date and time, and even configured to open notes in a new tab or window. This is particularly useful for recurring tasks such as journaling, note-taking for meetings, or setting up a morning routine. By centralizing these repetitive actions into named commands accessible from the command palette, the plugin helps users save time and maintain consistency in their workflows.

The Web viewer Bookmarks plugin simplifies access to frequently visited websites by letting you create, organise, and launch bookmarks directly from within your vault. It integrates with Obsidian's built-in web viewer, allowing one-click access through the ribbon or via commands in the palette. Each bookmark can be customised with a visual icon from the Lucide icon set, giving a personalised feel to your setup. Bookmark management is handled via a dedicated settings pane where you can add, edit, or remove entries and control their visibility in the UI.

The Better Command Palette plugin enhances the default command palette in Obsidian by offering a more intuitive and feature-rich experience. Users can quickly access commands, search for files, and locate tags using configurable shortcuts. Features include recent command prioritization, pinned commands, and the ability to create new files directly from the palette. Tag-based file search allows for efficient filtering, while macro commands enable users to execute sequences of actions with customizable delays. Hidden items can be managed to streamline the interface, with options to temporarily or permanently unhide them. The plugin also supports advanced customization and development features for further flexibility.

The CmdSearch plugin brings fast web search capabilities directly into Obsidian's command palette. Users can define custom search commands for any site that supports query-based URLs, enabling seamless lookups without leaving the app. Each command can be personalized with a name and URL, with placeholders for dynamic search terms. For quick access, hotkeys can be assigned to frequently used searches. If the Web Viewer core plugin is enabled, search results display within Obsidian itself, otherwise they open in an external browser.

The Barosaurus plugin brings notes, commands, open tabs, headings, bookmarks, folders and tags into one command bar, then lets you act on the selected result from the same place. You can rename, move, bookmark, open items in different layouts, append notes to today's note and create a new file when nothing matches. Ranking shifts with context, so editor actions rise when text is selected and frequent choices stay near the top while you type. The bar also supports nested pickers for tasks like moving files or choosing colours, with breadcrumbs that preserve your query when you step back.
