What is it?

Text Generator is a community plugin for Obsidian, the Markdown-based knowledge management app. It lets you generate ideas, titles, summaries, outlines and full paragraphs directly inside your notes, using context drawn from your own vault.

The plugin connects to several AI providers, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google (such as Gemini-Pro), HuggingFace and local models. Prompts can be configured with the context options the plugin offers, and per-note settings can be set through frontmatter so different notes can use different services.

It also includes a template engine for repetitive tasks and a set of community-shared templates. The project is MIT-licensed and developed in TypeScript, and is installable from Obsidian's Community Plugins browser or manually from source using pnpm.
