Bidirectional sync between personal and team Obsidian vaults.

README

A FastMCP server for bidirectional sync between a personal Obsidian vault and a shared team vault. Designed for teams where one person (the vault owner) maintains the source of truth and shares selected content with collaborators via a shared folder (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.).

Tools

Tool What it does
vault_sync_status Show pending changes, stale files, and last sync time
vault_sync_push Push eligible files from personal vault to team vault
vault_sync_pull Pull changes from team vault back to personal vault
vault_scope_check Check if a specific file is eligible for sync

Both push and pull default to dry_run: true — you always preview before executing.

Install

Open Claude Code, paste:

/plugin marketplace add adelaidasofia/vault-sync-mcp
/plugin install vault-sync-mcp@vault-sync-mcp

Then edit config.yaml to set your vault paths and sync rules:

personal_vault: ~/vault/
team_vault: ~/team-vault/

Restart Claude Code. Then ask:

"Show me vault sync status" "Push changes to team vault (dry run first)"

Legacy install
pip install fastmcp python-frontmatter pyyaml xxhash
  1. Clone:

    git clone https://github.com/adelaidasofia/vault-sync-mcp.git
    cd vault-sync-mcp
    
  2. Edit config.yaml to set your vault paths and sync rules:

    personal_vault: ~/vault/
    team_vault: ~/team-vault/
    
  3. Register with Claude Code:

    claude mcp add vault-sync -s user -- python3 /path/to/vault-sync-mcp/server.py
    
  4. Restart Claude Code. Then ask:

    "Show me vault sync status" "Push changes to team vault (dry run first)"

Configuration

Everything lives in config.yaml:

personal_vault: ~/vault/
team_vault: ~/team-vault/

no_sync:
  - "Journal/"
  - "Personal/"

sync_rules:
  - path: "Team/"
    direction: bidirectional

  - path: "CRM/"
    direction: personal_to_team
    filter:
      frontmatter_field: relationship
      frontmatter_values: [client, team, advisor]

Sync rule directions

  • bidirectional — changes flow both ways
  • personal_to_team — personal is source of truth, team gets updates
  • team_to_personal — team is source of truth, personal gets updates (useful for shared docs)

Blocking sync on a file

Add sync: false to any file's frontmatter to exclude it from all sync operations.

Environment variables

Variable Default Description
VAULT_SYNC_PERSONAL from config.yaml Personal vault root path
VAULT_SYNC_TEAM from config.yaml Team vault root path

Notes

  • Uses os.walk(followlinks=True) instead of Path.rglob() to correctly handle macOS symlinks (Google Drive, iCloud shortcuts)
  • Wikilinks are automatically rewritten to bare filenames during push ([[folder/Note]] becomes [[Note]])
  • Content hashing via xxhash for fast change detection
  • Conflict resolution: newer file wins; conflicts are logged and skipped

Telemetry

This plugin sends a single anonymous install signal to myceliumai.co the first time it loads in a Claude Code session on a given machine.

What is sent:

  • Plugin name (e.g. slack-mcp)
  • Plugin version (e.g. 0.1.0)

What is NOT sent:

  • No user identifiers, names, emails, tokens, or API keys
  • No file paths, message content, or anything from your work
  • No IP address is stored after dedup processing

Why: Helps the maintainer know which plugins people actually install, so attention goes to the ones that get used.

Opt out: Set the environment variable MYCELIUM_NO_PING=1 before launching Claude Code. The hook will skip the network call entirely. Already-pinged installs leave a sentinel at ~/.mycelium/onboarded-<plugin> — delete it if you want to reset state.
