turbovault

Overview

TurboVault is a high-performance Rust-based toolkit that transforms Obsidian-flavored Markdown vaults into intelligent knowledge systems. It provides both a modular Rust SDK for developers and a ready-to-use MCP server with 47 specialized tools for vault analysis, search, and management. Built on the TurboMCP framework, it offers sub-100ms operations, multi-vault support, and advanced features like link graph analysis, full-text search, and SQL frontmatter queries. The system is designed for both developers building custom applications and end users wanting to enhance their Obsidian experience.
