Best for
  • Developers and data engineers who need to process diverse document formats and extract structured data.
  • AI agents that need document processing capabilities within an MCP environment.
  • RAG pipelines that require extracting semantic information from codebases.
  • Users who want secure remote access to their Obsidian vault from any device.
  • Integrating Claude.ai (web) or mobile with Obsidian.
  • Those needing concurrent writes with Obsidian Sync without file conflicts.
Not for
  • General MCP scenarios that do not require document extraction or OCR.
  • Users needing real-time collaborative document editing, as Xberg focuses on extraction.
  • Simple text conversion with low performance requirements.
  • Users who only need local stdio MCP access without remote capabilities.
  • Those unwilling to set up an OAuth password or use a Cloudflare Tunnel.
  • Users with extremely high security requirements who distrust network exposure (though encrypted).
Required permissions
  • Read access to the local file system to access documents for extraction.
  • May access network to fetch URLs or call remote OCR/LLM APIs if configured.
  • Write access to cache directories to store extracted results.
  • Read and write files in the directory specified by VAULT_PATH.
  • Perform file operations (move, delete with soft delete to .trash).
  • Create daily notes, write binary files.
  • Maintain an in-memory frontmatter index, potentially modifying index files.
  • Access the network (for Cloudflare Tunnel, heartbeat URLs).
Risks and side effects
  • Potential security risk when processing malicious files; it is recommended to limit file sources.
  • OCR or LLM calls may require additional API keys or network connectivity.
  • Large file processing may consume significant memory and CPU resources.
  • Credential leakage: exposed OAuth password or MCP token could allow unauthorized access.
  • Path traversal mitigation is not infallible; keep updated.
  • Extension system is not sandboxed; loading untrusted extensions could be risky.
  • Audit log is best-effort and not tamper-evident; records may be dropped at runtime.
  • Misconfiguration may cause the server to fail to start or expose vulnerabilities.
