Use this skill to search a local Obsidian vault (a folder of markdown notes).
Configuration:
- Set `OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH` to the vault root folder.
Notes:
- This tool is read-only.
- It returns relative note paths plus small snippets (matching lines).
- It skips very large files by default to keep execution fast.
