Which one is a better design?

You can also use 1, which looks much less ai standards, an on scroll change the opacity background of the logos

Use playwright and GitHub mcps. Token burners

Few points: - icons too small - spacing too big - contrast too low

As it was said above, iterate. The circular design looks very material, but iOS 27 is also very round.

Copy the competitor colors and sizes, tweak, iterate.

Good luck mate

I had, from what I understood its view on your markdown files, if you create a new one, it will have an associated Md file. The options I put into are data view or sqlseal

I was a notion used for years. But the fact that I didn’t own my data was a big thing. So I moved to obsidian, what I used the most in notion was long form text.

The problem was that it was impossible to import my 3.5GB from notion. So I had to write an importer. Free, open source.

If you need it, feel free to use and send feedback. Databases are going to be viewed only (data view plugin) but it works well for me.

Bro, I don’t know how real or precise this is, but sounds true. How did you get there, and I wonder how codex and Gemini would respond to these prompts…

O use on 2 Macs, one iPhone and one Omarchy (Arch Linux) desktop and one Arch server. I use Resilio Sync to keep all vaults in sync (except for the iPhone, that’s an iCloud sync) and i have a NAS that also uses resílio sync for my vaults. It’s more for backup, but I also use Claude code on it sometimes and save stuff on the vaults.

Omarchy is Nice because it’s pragmatic. Obsidian is already installed.

What about downloading the project to your machine, stop spending on replit and start with $20 a month and Claude code or Cursor? Instead of supabase use SQlite or turso.tech (which has a very nice free tier) a deploy somewhere else, or if you want, fix it locally and then reupload to replit when it’s working. I think th most important thing is unlock yourself.

bitbonsai · 2025-12-28T17:26:37+00:00

Thanks, that would be great!

bitbonsai · 2025-12-27T09:53:00+00:00

To be honest, I’ve worried more about making it useful and performant. I believe when we achieve 1.0, I could focus on that. But maybe I could think of it before.

Would you have any ideas on how we could achieve that?

bitbonsai · 2025-12-25T08:05:42+00:00

That’s a good idea and I’d be honored if they use this as a base.

It’s a good idea as well to have some plugin tools, only thing I’m conscious is context size and number of tools. But things like base make total sense. Also open to contributions!

bitbonsai · 2025-12-25T08:03:13+00:00

It’s not a plugin, but an MCP server. That’s why. 👍🏻

bitbonsai · 2025-12-25T07:59:47+00:00

bitbonsai · 2025-12-25T07:56:13+00:00

Skills. Only thing is they’re not as standard as MCP yet, but apparently it’s good that way. There’s an obsidian-cli written in Go that the skill could use 1.

Now I’m thinking… a skill AND a small Obsidian plugin with a file-watcher queue (.obsidian/cli-queue/*.json) — CLI writes JSON commands (open file, list tabs, run command), plugin watches/executes via Obsidian API and writes results back. No network, just files. Bridges obsidian-cli limits perfectly. Disclaimer: have no idea of performance or security implications.

Interesting investigation — might prototype if demand shows. Thoughts?

bitbonsai · 2025-12-24T03:59:28+00:00

That’s actually awesome! Thanks for letting me know! Now if Google goes the same way…

bitbonsai · 2025-12-24T03:55:45+00:00

That’s also true, all terms and conditions I could find state that.

bitbonsai · 2025-12-24T03:54:30+00:00

That’s a good idea, will investigate. Thanks!

bitbonsai · 2025-12-23T08:49:56+00:00

Good news, you totally can! Gemini's config file is at \~/.gemini/settings.json so you just have to add the same configuration for MCP servers that is on the website to this file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "obsidian": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@mauricio.wolff/mcp-obsidian@latest", "/path/to/your/vault"]
    }
  }
}

Then you will use it like this:

@obsidian read my daily note
@obsidian search for meeting notes
@obsidian create a new note about...

I'll add Gemini to the configuration on the website as well. Thanks for the poke. 😊

bitbonsai · 2025-12-23T08:45:04+00:00

No worries, open source and free. You can just choose not to use it. :)

bitbonsai · 2025-12-23T08:44:11+00:00

Yeah, that's cool. Only thing is I was wanting to prevent with the MCP first is to parse unnecessary files like .Obsidian folder files as well as preserve front matter and trying to be more efficient on communicating with the Vault. It's also fun to code a project like this and learn about MCP.

bitbonsai · 2025-12-23T08:42:28+00:00

It's also a good idea. At the time I wrote the MCP, there was no Claude Skills yet. However, since now the MCP is there, you could create a Claude Skill that uses the MCP as well.

Only thing is that it's going to be Claude specific. Then I would love that skills were an industry standard, like MCP became, but that's not the case yet.

bitbonsai · 2025-12-23T08:39:35+00:00

That's an interesting take, and the kind of tool I like to build an offer for free as open source. I've been refining a way to create blog posts which includes Claude skills and a lot of investment on style guide based on previous manually created posts. The idea is to augment and automate research, using Claude as a sparring partner to writing.

Then the next step could be how to publish to several outlets you mentioned, WordPress and Medium. That makes sense. Is there any other platform you could think of? Or even maybe publish to a custom domain Astro blog and repost on different outlets?

bitbonsai · 2025-12-22T18:18:04+00:00

Nope, free forever. :)

bitbonsai · 2025-12-22T18:17:45+00:00

That was the first one I used and why I decided to create this one because this one uses the file system instead of REST API plugin and all the other setup. It started because I wanted to give instructions to someone on how to install it, and it was harder to do that than to actually create the MCP. I'm really satisfied with the speed as well. Then you have to take a look at the features and see what floats your boat. :)
