The short version
Obsidian Wiki Ingest
By Agrici Daniel
Turn articles, notes, and files into linked, source-cited pages in your Obsidian vault.
What each one does
News Search
- Searches Brave's news index for articles on any topic you specify
- Filters results by freshness (past day, week, month, year, or custom date range)
- Returns article titles, URLs, descriptions, publication dates, and thumbnails
- Allows filtering by country, language, and content safety settings
- Supports custom source ranking to prioritize or exclude specific news outlets
Obsidian Wiki Ingest
- Reads pasted text, files in your vault inbox, or web links you approve
- Extracts key claims, people, concepts, contradictions, and open questions
- Creates or updates linked notes only when the source adds something new
- Tracks the source behind every claim so you can trust and check it later
- Shows a full preview of planned changes before writing to your vault
