# Obsidian Clip
Turn a URL into a **readable, reusable Clip note** in an Obsidian vault.
## Storage
- Vault: `${OBSIDIAN_VAULT}` (recommended to set; fallback supported by script)
- Folder: `Clip/YYYY-MM/`
- Filename: `YYYY-MM-DD_标题_关键词.md`
## Output standard (must follow)
The skill supports **Chinese and English** notes.
- Default language: **auto-detect** (based on your system locale and whether the content contains CJK characters)
- Override language: set `OBSIDIAN_CLIP_LANG=zh` or `OBSIDIAN_CLIP_LANG=en`
Structure:
1) **Theme / 主题一句话** (1 sentence, plain)
2) **Takeaways / 要点** (5–10 bullets, each ≤ 1 line)
3) **How I’ll use it / 我怎么用** (1–3 bullets; actions / why it matters)
4) **Limits / 规则/限制** (optional; paywall/login required, license, caveats)
## Workflow
1) **Fetch the page**
- Prefer lightweight extraction tools (e.g., `web_fetch`) first.
- Use a real browser only when needed (JS-heavy sites / WeChat / login / extraction fails).
- If blocked by login/paywall, ask the user to log in, then retry.
2) **Rewrite for readability**
- Don’t make the output about tool limitations.
- If details are still inaccessible, produce a useful clip anyway: page定位 + 可用信息 + what you need to finish.
- Do **not** send screenshots/images unless the user explicitly requests.
3) **Save to Obsidian** using the bundled script.
## Bundled script
Path: `scripts/clip_save.sh`
Example:
```bash
bash scripts/clip_save.sh \
--url "https://example.com" \
--title "页面标题" \
--theme "一句话主题" \
--bullets "要点1" --bullets "要点2" \
--actions "我怎么用1" \
--limits "规则/限制（可选）" \
--tags "clip" --tags "ai" \
--keywords "keyword1-keyword2" \
--date "YYYY-MM-DD"
```
Notes:
- `--bullets` / `--actions` / `--limits` / `--tags` can be repeated.
- Keep `--keywords` short (2–5 tokens joined by `-`).Related Skills

cliproxy-media
Analyze images (jpg, png, gif, webp) and PDFs via CLIProxyAPI — a Claude Max proxy that routes requests through your subscription at zero extra cost. Use this skill whenever you need to analyze, describe, or extract information from an image or photo ("analyze image", "describe photo", "what is in this picture"), read or summarize a PDF document ("read PDF", "summary of this document"), or process any media file via a CLIProxy-compatible endpoint ("process media via proxy", "cliproxy vision", "cliproxy media"). NEVER use the built-in `image` or `pdf` tools when using CLIProxyAPI — they fall back to direct Anthropic API which requires separate credits. Use this skill instead for all vision and document analysis tasks.

Create Obsidian Canvas files from text content, supporting both MindMap and freeform layouts. Use this skill when users want to visualize content as an interactive canvas, create mind maps, or organize information spatially in Obsidian format.
