★ 39,700A skill package that teaches your agent 5 capabilities — every one documented and browsable below, no GitHub required · by kepano.
Each skill below is one capability this package teaches your agent. Install the whole package, or open a skill to install just that one.
Extract clean markdown content from web pages using Defuddle CLI, removing clutter and navigation to save tokens. Use instead of WebFetch when the user provides a URL to read or analyze, for online documentation, articles, blog posts, or any standard web page. Do NOT use for URLs ending in .md — those are already markdown, use WebFetch directly.

/plugin install obsidian@obsidian-skillsnpx skills
npx skills add git@github.com:kepano/obsidian-skills.gitInstead of ssh, if you prefer to use https:

Claude Code
Add the contents of this repo to a /.claude folder in the root of your Obsidian vault (or whichever folder you're using with Claude Code). See more in the official Claude Skills documentation.
Codex
Copy the skills/ directory into your Codex skills path (typically ~/.codex/skills). See the Agent Skills specification for the standard skill format.
OpenCode
Clone the entire repo into the OpenCode skills directory (~/.opencode/skills/):
git clone https://github.com/kepano/obsidian-skills.git ~/.opencode/skills/obsidian-skillsDo not copy only the inner skills/ folder — clone the full repo so the directory structure is ~/.opencode/skills/obsidian-skills/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md.
OpenCode auto-discovers all SKILL.md files under ~/.opencode/skills/. No changes to opencode.json or any config file are needed. Skills become available after restarting OpenCode.
