This is my first plugin, btw!
I just finished building an “intelligent” auto-linking plugin that creates backlinks as you type!
Key Features:
- Smart word completion Links notes when you finish typing their titles
- 4 different modes From fully autonomous to suggestion-based
- Intelligent disambiguation Waits when multiple notes share prefixes
- Easy undo Backspace/Delete or Ctrl+Shift+Z to undo any link
- Alias support Matches frontmatter aliases too
How it works:
Type “Project Ideas” and it automatically becomes [[Project Ideas]] when you hit space or punctuation. If you have both “Project” and “Project Ideas” notes, it waits until you complete the full phrase to avoid wrong links. (aka. what I call wait-and-see)
Modes:
- Autonomous Auto-links from all notes
- Semi-Autonomous Only current folder
- Suggestions Popup with options
- Custom Full control over behavior
Technical stuff:
Built with TypeScript + Svelte, includes debounced processing, smart cursor handling, and conflict detection.
Perfect for anyone who wants seamless note linking without the manual [[]] typing!
(Currently waiting on it to be added to Obsidian Plugins…)
Anyone tried something similar? Would love feedback!
