An Obsidian.md plugin that loads a persistent .obsidian.vimrc file of Vim commands, letting users of Obsidian's built-in Vim mode keep keymaps and settings across sessions. It adds extras like clipboard yank support, custom mappings, and Ex commands that trigger Obsidian commands.

Use cases

• persist vim keybindings in obsidian
• load a vimrc file in obsidian vault
• map keys to obsidian commands in vim mode
• yank to system clipboard in obsidian vim mode
• customize vim mode settings across obsidian vaults

When to choose

• you use Obsidian's built-in Vim mode and want persistent keymaps and settings
• you want to remap keys or run Obsidian commands via Vim Ex commands
• you use multiple vaults and want consistent Vim configuration

When to avoid

• you don't use Obsidian's Vim key bindings
• you need full Vimscript support or features beyond CodeMirror's Vim emulation
• you need a plugin under active development - the maintainer is seeking a successor
