Sync your Obsidian notes with CORE (Contextual Observation & Recall Engine) and get memory-aware answers directly inside Obsidian.

​
✨ What it does

  • Sync Notes: Push selected notes (or entire vault sections) into CORE as Episodes.
  • Right-Side Panel: Opens a dedicated panel in Obsidian that sends the current note’s content to CORE and shows relevant results, links, or summaries.
  • Frontmatter Control: Decide which notes to sync by adding simple YAML flags.
  • Offline Safe: Failed syncs are queued locally and retried automatically.

🛠️ Usage

Mark Notes for Sync Add the following frontmatter at the top of a note to mark it for synchronization: 
---
core.sync: true
---
** Manual Sync Commands** Open the command palette (Cmd/Ctrl + P) and run:
  • “Sync current note to CORE” - Sync the currently open note
  • “Sync all notes with core.sync=true” - Sync all notes marked for synchronization
CORE Panel with Deep Search
  1. Open the CORE Panel by running “Open CORE Panel” from the command palette
  2. This opens a new tab on the right side of Obsidian
  3. When you open or edit a note, the plugin will automatically:
    • Send the note’s content to CORE
    • Display relevant memories, links, and summaries
    • Show related notes from your vault
The Deep Search feature proactively surfaces relevant context from your notes while you work: Example Use Cases:
  • Meeting Prep: Open your daily note before a 1:1 meeting, and the sidebar automatically shows relevant notes from past meetings with that person
  • Project Context: Switch to a project document, and see related discussions, decisions, and action items from previous sessions
  • Travel Planning: Update your packing list, and CORE shows you what you forgot on past trips or useful tips from previous travel notes
  • Research Continuity: Work on a research note, and get automatic cross-references to related concepts and sources from your vault
Deep Search transforms your notes from passive storage into active assistance, providing in-the-moment retrieval without manual searching.
