Obsidian Sync

State file:

~/.openclaw/skill-state/obsidian-sync/state.yaml

Your agent's memory should be readable by you, not just by the agent.

When to Use

  • On 10pm nightly cron wakeup
  • When the user asks to sync notes to Obsidian
  • After a major task completion worth archiving

Setup (First Run)

On first run, ask the user for their vault path and write it to state as

vault_path
. Do not proceed until this is set.

The Sync Process

Step 1: Read Agent Memory

  • Read today's
    memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md
  • Read
    MEMORY.md
    (long-term memory)

Step 2: Write to Vault

  • Copy
    memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md
    <vault_path>/OpenClaw/Daily/YYYY-MM-DD.md
  • Copy
    MEMORY.md
    <vault_path>/OpenClaw/Memory.md
  • Create
    <vault_path>/OpenClaw/
    directory if it doesn't exist

Step 3: Update State

Write

last_sync_at
,
notes_written
(count of files written),
vault_path
to state.

Cron Wakeup Behavior

On 10pm wakeup:

  • Check
    vault_path
    in state — if empty, skip and notify user to set it
  • Check
    last_sync_at
    — if today, skip
  • Otherwise run sync

Key Principles

  • Never overwrite vault files the user has manually edited — append-only to Daily notes
  • If the vault path doesn't exist, warn the user rather than creating it silently
  • Keep the OpenClaw folder structure flat and simple
