Obsidian Tasks

v0.1.1

Set up and manage an Obsidian task board with Kanban + Dataview. Creates a Tasks/Board.md pipeline (Backlog/Todo/In Progress/Review/Done), per-task notes with YAML frontmatter (status/priority/category/due), and dashboards via Dataview queries. Use for task tracking, moving cards between columns, keeping board + frontmatter in sync, and linking tasks to supporting notes/research.

Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the files and behavior: setup.py creates a Tasks folder, Board.md (Kanban) and Dashboard.md (Dataview) and SKILL.md documents how to use them. Nothing in the repo requires unrelated capabilities.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions and SKILL.md stay within the vault/task-board scope. The setup script only checks the given vault path, creates a folder, and writes Board.md and Dashboard.md; the README instructs installing Obsidian community plugins. The skill does not instruct reading unrelated files or exfiltrating data.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec (instruction-only). The included scripts are small and local; the publish helper invokes npx clawhub for maintainers (optional). Running the publish script would call npx (network) but that's a maintainer operation, not required for normal use.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables or credentials. The publish script optionally reads CLAWHUB_* env vars for publishing, which is appropriate for that developer workflow and not required for the setup functionality.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill doesn't request persistent system privileges or modify other skills. It writes only to the user-specified vault path and does not attempt to alter system config or other skills.
Assessment
This repo appears to do exactly what it says: create Board.md and Dashboard.md inside an Obsidian vault. Before running: (1) back up your vault (the script will create files inside the folder you point it at); (2) inspect scripts locally (scripts/setup.py is small and easy to review); (3) ensure you install the Kanban and Dataview Obsidian community plugins as instructed; (4) only run the publish_clawhub.sh if you intend to publish and understand it will call npx (uses optional CLAWHUB_* env vars). Overall low risk, but as with any script that writes to your files, confirm the vault path and review the code first.

Like a lobster shell, security has layers — review code before you run it.
