About Markdown Frontmatter Harvester MCP Server
If you use a Knowledge Management system like Obsidian, Logseq, or Hugo, you likely use YAML 'frontmatter' at the top of your markdown files to track metadata like status: draft, tags: [idea, research], or date: 2024-01-01.

The AI can then instantly filter, sort, and query your entire knowledge base.
