Plugin Configuration & Version Control

Git Tracking Strategy

The .obsidian/plugins/ folder uses a selective approach:

• Tracked: manifest.json files (plugin metadata) and safe data.json configurations
• Ignored: Plugin code (*.js, *.css) - auto-downloaded from repos
• Ignored: Secret-containing data.json files - see below

Plugins with Secrets

These plugins store API keys or credentials in data.json and are excluded from version control:

Plugin	Secrets
Copilot	OpenAI, Anthropic, Google API keys
Local REST API	API key, SSL certificates
Imgur	Client ID
Smart Connections	AI service API keys
Readwise Official	API token
Raindrop Highlights	API token
GitHub Copilot	Auth tokens
Google Drive Sync	OAuth tokens
Google Lookup	Google API key

Native Keychain Support

Obsidian provides a native Keychain feature (v1.8+) at Settings > Keychain for secure secret storage using OS-level encryption (macOS Keychain, Windows DPAPI, Linux secret stores).

The Plugin API for Keychain is still being developed, so not all plugins support it yet.

Secrets stored in this vault’s Keychain:

• openai-api-key - Used by Copilot, Smart Connections
• anthropic-api-key - Used by Copilot
• todoist-api-key - Used by Todoist Sync
• obsidian-rest-api-key - Used by Local REST API

WARNING

Keychain secrets are machine-local and do not sync. After cloning this vault on a new machine, re-enter all secrets in Settings > Keychain.

See the image below for reference:
