Personal skill collection for AI agents: Obsidian wiki management, browser automation and daily tools
Yolanda Skills is a collection of self-contained agent skills for knowledge management, browser automation and daily routines, tagged for both Hermes and Claude Code. It also ships a knowledge-base template you can copy.
What Yolanda Skills does
The knowledge-management group is built around a local Obsidian knowledge base located by the WIKI_DIR variable. yo-opentalk is the entry point for chat and brainstorming and routes to other skills, yo-wiki-atom extracts reusable knowledge atoms from links or text, yo-wiki-review periodically condenses atoms into structured topics, and yo-whoami maintains a personal profile. yo-self-review handles daily and weekly reviews and can run alone with only NOTES_DIR set.
Browser automation is covered by opencli, which controls browsers and Electron apps while reusing cookies, and agent-browser, a general automation CLI. A music skill, yo-utils-music, controls NetEase Cloud Music through opencli. Each skill directory is self-contained, so you can copy only the ones you need into your agent's skills path. The README is in Chinese and lists several deprecated skills with their replacements.
