Obsidian MCP servers: what to know before you pick one

Which Obsidian MCP server should I use?

On GitHub stars, DocsAgent — Zotero, Obsidian & Apple Notes MCP Server (★ 578), Obsidian Hybrid Search (★ 115) and Obsidian Vault MCP (★ 94) lead the 49 we list. DocsAgent — Zotero, Obsidian & Apple Notes MCP Server is named for Obsidian and passed every check we run.

Can I trust these Obsidian MCP servers?

37 of the 49 passed every registry check. Reading the package code or tool descriptions of 37 of them turned up 5 with something to look at, from install scripts to obfuscated code. A clean result means none of our patterns matched, not that a server is safe.

Is there an official Obsidian MCP server?

Not in the official MCP Registry as of 31 Oct 2026. All 49 Obsidian servers are community builds from 47 different publishers, so check who is behind one before you hand it a Obsidian key.

Can I try a Obsidian MCP server without an API key?

37 of the 49 list no secrets, including DocsAgent — Zotero, Obsidian & Apple Notes MCP Server, Obsidian Vault MCP and Obsidian Everywhere. A server can still open a sign-in page on first use.

Hosted or local: how do Obsidian MCP servers run?

4 can run hosted, so you only paste a URL into Claude, Cursor or VS Code. The 45 that run locally ship as 26 npm, 9 PyPI, 6 MCPB bundle, 3 Docker and 1 Cargo packages.
