Note app Obsidian gains traction as AI coding knowledge base

A local note app, Obsidian, is spreading quickly among developers as a tool for AI coding support, used to organise requirements and design intent as a knowledge base. Linked notes visualised as graphs help manage context, and connecting a Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets AI automatically reference documents and generate code. A reporter tested it by building a test harness, but noted a learning curve and instability in MCP connections.
