# Open in Claude Code

An [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md) plugin that launches [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) in the directory of the current note or at the vault root.

## Features

- **Ribbon icon** — Click the Claude icon in the left sidebar to open Claude Code in the active note's directory.
- **Command palette** — Two commands available:
  - *Open current directory in Claude Code* — Opens the parent directory of the active note.
  - *Open vault root in Claude Code* — Opens the vault root directory.
- **Auto-sync plugins** — Before each launch, the plugin ensures that the target directory inherits all `enabledPlugins` from the vault root's `.claude/settings.json`. If the directory doesn't have its own `.claude/settings.json`, one is created automatically.

## Requirements

- macOS (uses AppleScript to launch Terminal)
- [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) CLI installed and available in your `PATH`
