Tip: Claudian and Cortex Plugins Embed Claude Code as Full Agentic Vault Agent Inside Obsidian

Obsidian Forum·medium signal

Two Obsidian plugins now embed Claude Code directly into vault workflows: Cortex spawns a Claude agent in a side panel with full file read/write/organize capabilities, while Claudian supports multiple agent backends (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode) with the vault as the agent's working directory. Both support multi-step workflows, bash execution, and MCP connections to external services. The key insight: by making your knowledge vault the agent's working directory, you get context-aware AI that operates on your actual notes rather than isolated chat responses.
