ginnoir b99a0a18f0 docs(vault): document Pokémon ROM Hacks vault section in skill
Adds the ROM Hacks folder tree to the vault structure reference so

and Platforms/ live without re-deriving it.

name: vault
description: Read and write notes in ginnoir's self-hosted Obsidian vault via the Obsidian MCP server. Use when loading persistent context for a session, saving new context, writing a note, or querying vault contents. The vault is the canonical persistent-context store across Claude sessions.
---
# vault
Obsidian vault accessed via the **`mcp__obsidian__*` MCP tools**. Do not attempt to connect to CouchDB directly — use MCP only.
The MCP server is configured in `~/.mcp.json` and is available in every Claude Code session. If the tools are listed as deferred, load them with `ToolSearch` before calling.
## Core tools
| Tool | Use |
|---|---|
| `mcp__obsidian__vault_list` | List files/dirs in a directory (omit path for vault root) |
| `mcp__obsidian__vault_read` | Read a file's full content + metadata (tags, frontmatter, links, backlinks) |
| `mcp__obsidian__vault_write` | Create or overwrite a file |
| `mcp__obsidian__vault_patch` | Append or patch a section without a full rewrite |
| `mcp__obsidian__vault_delete` | Delete a file |
| `mcp__obsidian__vault_move` | Move or rename a file |
| `mcp__obsidian__search_simple` | Full-text search across the vault |
| `mcp__obsidian__search_query` | Advanced query search |
| `mcp__obsidian__tag_list` | List all tags |
## Load context at session start
```
1. mcp__obsidian__vault_read path="claude/Context.md"
2. Follow [[wikilinks]] to read specific notes as needed
```
`claude/Context.md` is the master index. It links to all other context notes under `claude/`.
## Read a note
```
mcp__obsidian__vault_read path="claude/Homelab.md"
```
Returns: `content` (full markdown), `tags`, `frontmatter`, `links`, `backlinks`, `stat`.
To read only a section:
```
mcp__obsidian__vault_read path="claude/Services.md" targetType="heading" target="BookStack"
```
## Write a note
```
mcp__obsidian__vault_write path="claude/MyNote.md" content="# Title\n\nContent here."
```
Creates parent directories automatically. Overwrites without warning.
## Append to a note
```
mcp__obsidian__vault_patch path="claude/Context.md" ...
```
Use `vault_patch` when adding a section to an existing note to avoid rewriting the whole file.
## Search the vault
```
mcp__obsidian__search_simple query="portainer env vars"
```
## Vault structure

```
