Obsidian is a powerful knowledge base that works on local markdown files. with screenpipe, you can query your screen history and meeting transcriptions directly from Obsidian using AI plugins.

​
setup with copilot plugin

the Obsidian Copilot plugin supports MCP servers, letting you query screenpipe from within Obsidian.
  1. install the Copilot plugin from Obsidian community plugins
  2. open Copilot settings → MCP Servers
  3. add screenpipe:
{
  "screenpipe": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y", "screenpipe-mcp"]
  }
}
  1. restart Obsidian
now you can ask Copilot things like:
  • “what was I reading about yesterday?”
  • “find my meeting notes from this morning”
  • “what code was I looking at in VS Code?“

​
manual workflow

if you prefer not to use plugins, you can query screenpipe’s API and paste results into notes: 
# search recent screen content
curl "http://localhost:3030/search?q=meeting&limit=10" | jq '.data[].content.text'

# get audio transcriptions from today
curl "http://localhost:3030/search?content_type=audio&limit=20"
