Hive Vault
Connects Claude or other MCP clients to an Obsidian vault without loading everything into context. Query files on demand with vault_query, search with BM25 ranking, write and patch files with optional deferred git commits, and capture lessons that get reinforced with usage over time. The delegate_task tool routes work to cheaper models via Ollama or OpenRouter. Designed for developers who keep project context in markdown and want their AI assistant to remember things between sessions without burning tokens. Ships with a lesson reinforcement system that tracks which knowledge gets reused and surfaces it in future searches. Works standalone or pairs with the obsidian-git plugin for async commits.
