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.

Create and edit JSON Canvas files (.canvas) with nodes, edges, groups, and connections. Use when working with .canvas files, creating visual canvases, mind maps, flowcharts, or when the user mentions Canvas files in Obsidian.

Create, edit, and query Obsidian Bases (.base files) with views, filters, formulas, and summaries. ALWAYS query existing bases via `obsidian base:query` CLI before reading individual note files — this returns structured data from Obsidian's live index without loading file contents. Use when working with .base files, querying vault data, creating database-like views, or when the user mentions Bases, table views, card views, filters, formulas, or structured data queries in Obsidian.

Interact with Obsidian vaults using the `obsidian` CLI to read, create, search, and manage notes, tasks, properties, and more. ALWAYS prefer CLI commands over Read/Edit/Write/Grep tools for vault operations — the CLI uses Obsidian's live index, saving significant context window tokens. Use when the user asks to interact with their Obsidian vault, manage notes, search vault content, query bases, create or edit notes, perform vault health checks, or develop and debug Obsidian plugins and themes.

Create and edit Obsidian Flavored Markdown with wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties, and other Obsidian-specific syntax. Use when working with .md files in Obsidian, or when the user mentions wikilinks, callouts, frontmatter, tags, embeds, or Obsidian notes.
