| **Obsidian Desktop** | v1.12.0+ |
| **CLI enabled** | Settings → Command line interface → Toggle ON |

- **macOS / Linux** — the `obsidian` binary is added to PATH automatically when you enable CLI in settings.
- **Windows** — requires an `Obsidian.com` redirector file placed alongside `Obsidian.exe` (available in the `#insider-desktop-release` channel on Obsidian Discord). Must run from a **normal-privilege terminal** — admin terminals produce silent failures.
