SystemSculpt AI for Obsidian

August 14, 2026 · View on GitHub

SystemSculpt brings an agent workspace, semantic vault search, transcription, and visual workflows into Obsidian. Activate a SystemSculpt license once; there are no provider keys, model catalogs, or local AI runtimes to configure.

What it does

  • Chat with notes, documents, images, and built-in vault tools.
  • Stream reasoning, content, citations, tool activity, and approvals.
  • Attach or paste multiple mixed files into a conversation.
  • Find related notes with a portable semantic index.
  • Record or import audio and transcribe it to Markdown or SRT.
  • Process long audio and YouTube videos into transcripts and structured summaries.
  • Build text, image, document, media, and vault workflows in Studio.

SystemSculpt runs on desktop and mobile. Studio exposes portable nodes on both; local CLI, terminal, dataset-adapter, and FFmpeg nodes require Obsidian Desktop.

Install

  1. Install and enable SystemSculpt AI from Obsidian Community Plugins.
  2. Open Settings → SystemSculpt AI → Account.
  3. Activate your SystemSculpt license.
  4. Run Open SystemSculpt Chat or open Studio.

SystemSculpt checks its first-party release endpoint and shows one update prompt per new version. Obsidian Community Plugins exclusively owns download, installation, and activation.

Privacy and safety

  • The plugin sends AI work and release checks only to the first-party SystemSculpt API.
  • Provider credentials and model selection stay on the server.
  • Built-in tools operate against the current vault.
  • Ask Approval pauses before vault mutations. Full Access runs them without pausing.
  • License keys are removed from exported diagnostics and settings backups.

Documentation

Development

cd ~/gits/systemsculpt/plugin
npm install
npm run check

Use npm run test:related with the source files being changed. Run npm run check:plugin for a larger local checkpoint and npm run check:full for the exhaustive local gate.

Select each non-production API through its named development command:

npm run build:local-agent
npm run build:staging

The local-agent route is fixed at http://127.0.0.1:8787/api/plugin. Production builds reject endpoint overrides and use https://systemsculpt.com/api/plugin.

The local SystemSculpt workspace is:

DirectoryResponsibility
~/gits/systemsculpt/pluginThis Obsidian client
~/gits/systemsculpt/websiteWebsite and first-party plugin API
~/gits/systemsculpt/systemsculpt-osGrowth and operator automation
