Why?

Cursor/VS Code is great for AI-assisted editing. Obsidian is great for knowledge management. This plugin bridges them — preview your notes with full Obsidian rendering while you code.


Features

Demo

  • Live Preview — Dataview, Admonition, callouts, all rendered
  • Click to Navigate — [[wikilinks]] and [[File#Heading]] work, with back button
  • Hover Preview — See linked notes without switching files
  • Syntax Highlighting — Wikilinks, tags, embeds colored in editor
  • Wikilink Completion — Type [[ to get file suggestions with alias support
  • Collapsible Callouts — Expand/collapse just like Obsidian
  • Auto Launch — Automatically detects vault, launches Obsidian, and installs/updates the plugin
  • Imgur Upload — Paste images directly to Imgur with Ctrl+Shift+V (requires Obsidian Imgur Plugin, Windows only)

Install

Strongly Recommended — one step for everything:

Search obsidianpreview in Cursor/VS Code Extensions and install. That's it.

On first use, the extension auto-detects your vault, installs the Obsidian plugin, and launches Obsidian for you.

For manual installation, see the Manual Installation Guide.


Usage

  1. Open your vault folder in Cursor/VS Code
  2. Open any .md file → Click the 👁️ icon or run Obsidian Preview: Open Preview
  3. Everything is handled automatically — Obsidian will launch if needed
