Graph Colorize — Color-code the Obsidian Graph View
You are rewriting $OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH/.obsidian/graph.json so Obsidian's graph view tints nodes by tag, folder, or visibility.
Obsidian stores graph settings in <vault>/.obsidian/graph.json. The colorGroups array is a list of {query, color} pairs; the first matching query wins per node. Queries use Obsidian's search syntax: tag:#foo, path:"concepts", file:foo, etc. Color is {"a": 1, "rgb": <packed-int>} where the int is (R << 16) | (G << 8) | B.
Before You Start
- Resolve config — follow the Config Resolution Protocol in
llm-wiki/SKILL.md(inline@nameoverride → walk up CWD for.env→ global config → prompt setup). This givesOBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH. - Confirm
$OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH/.obsidian/exists. If it doesn't, the vault has never been opened in Obsidian — tell the user to open the vault once in Obsidian, then re-run. - Warn the user if Obsidian is likely open: Obsidian overwrites
graph.jsonon close. Tell them to close the vault first, or be ready to reload (Cmd/Ctrl+R) and not touch the graph settings until they reload.
Step 1: Pick a Mode
Infer the mode from the user's phrasing. If ambiguous, default to by-tag.
