What This Skill Does
Saves markdown content to a remote Obsidian vault over SSH using SCP. Built for Linux and Ubuntu machines that lack iCloud sync and cannot write directly to the vault. Enforces Obsidian-compatible formatting: Mermaid diagrams, markdown tables, and wiki-links.
Handles SSH transfer, filename sanitization, and Obsidian-specific formatting in one step, instead of manual SCP commands that risk broken ASCII diagrams or invalid filenames.
When to use it
- Archiving AI-generated research notes from a Linux server to Obsidian
- Sending meeting summaries from a remote machine to a personal knowledge base
- Pushing generated documentation into an Obsidian vault for later review
- Storing code analysis output in Obsidian without manual file transfer
- Saving agent outputs to a Mac-hosted vault from a headless server
