[0:00] Most of you are using Claude Code with

[0:01] Obsidian the wrong way because if all

[0:04] you're doing is opening Claude in your

[0:06] vault and using Obsidian as a way to

[0:08] read markdown, you are leaving a ton of

[0:10] value on the table. These tools can do

[0:12] way more than that and one example is

[0:14] this. I've turned Obsidian into the

[0:16] command center for my entire Claude OS.

[0:19] It has a fully integrated terminal,

[0:20] custom observability, and all of my most

[0:23] used skills and automations are just one

[0:25] click away. So today I'm going to break

[0:26] down how this command center works, how

[0:28] you can build it for yourself, and

[0:29] what's going on under the hood so we can

[0:31] get the most out of Claude Code and

[0:34] Obsidian. So this is my Obsidian Command

[0:36] Center and I love this thing because it

[0:38] kind of gives me the best of both

[0:39] worlds. I have the integrated terminal

[0:41] here so I'm able to use Claude Code the

[0:43] same way I always use it, which is in

[0:44] the terminal, but at the same time I get

[0:46] all of the benefits of the Obsidian

[0:48] ecosystem. I have my entire vault set up

[0:51] over here on the left so I can very

[0:52] easily see all my markdown files and

[0:55] right here I have what is essentially a

[0:57] custom plugin that Claude Code built for

[1:01] Obsidian. And it's completely custom.

[1:03] Everything I see here is related to me

[1:04] and what I need to see in my day-to-day.

[1:06] Obviously, my stuff is very content

[1:08] forward so that includes stuff like,

[1:10] hey, what are my subscriptions doing?

[1:12] What are my follower accounts doing

[1:14] across all my platforms? What's going on

[1:16] in my schedule that day? What are
