Overview
Obsidian is a powerful knowledge base that works on top of a local folder of Markdown files. With Needle's Obsidian connector powered by needlectl, you can securely sync your vault (Markdown, PDFs, and images) to a collection and search across your notes with AI—keeping full control on your device during sync.
Features
• Sync Markdown notes, PDFs, and common image formats from your vault using the needlectl daemon.
• Incremental updates with automatic file monitoring—new, changed, and deleted files are handled automatically.
• Private-by-default: you control which folders are synced; designed for local-first workflows.
Benefits
• Turn your Obsidian vault into an intelligent knowledge base searchable alongside your other tools.
• Keep writing in Obsidian while Needle keeps your collection up to date in the background.
