An Obsidian.md plugin that formats and styles Markdown notes with a focus on configurability and extensibility. It provides toggleable rules for YAML frontmatter, headings, footnotes, spacing, and general Markdown content that can be run on files, folders, or an entire vault.

Use cases

• format my obsidian notes consistently
• clean up yaml frontmatter in markdown files
• auto-format markdown headings and spacing
• lint my obsidian vault for style issues
• move tags into yaml frontmatter automatically
• normalize markdown formatting across a vault
• add yaml title and timestamps to notes automatically

When to choose

• you use Obsidian and want consistent note formatting
• you need configurable, toggleable rules for Markdown and YAML frontmatter cleanup
• you want to lint many notes at once across a vault

When to avoid

• you need a general-purpose Markdown linter outside Obsidian
• you want a linter for programming code rather than prose notes
• you need rules that all compose safely together, since some rule combinations conflict
