Self-hosted MCP server that makes your Obsidian/markdown vault searchable — text, PDFs, Office docs, images, audio — from any MCP client. Hybrid retrieval over a typed, governed corpus, sub-second at 50k notes; your files stay plain markdown.
Setup
Choose your client, copy the config, then fill in any required environment variables.
