o, keyword lets you search every Obsidian setting tab by name and jump to it directly, without clicking through the settings sidebar. The search covers built-in Obsidian settings tabs, quick-access entries for the community plugin and theme browsers, and the settings pages for every community plugin you have installed in your vault.
What o, searches
The search covers three categories of results:
Obsidian Core Settings
Built-in tabs such as Editor, Files & Links, Appearance, Hotkeys, About, and the Core Plugins list.
Community Browsers
Quick access to the Plugin Browser, Theme Browser, and Community Plugins page — useful for browsing without leaving Alfred.
Installed Plugin Settings
Every community plugin installed in your vault appears as a result, so you can jump straight to that plugin’s settings tab.
.git folder are marked with ⚙️, indicating they are locally developed.
Keyboard shortcuts
The following shortcuts apply when a community plugin result is selected. They are not available for core Obsidian settings tabs or the plugin/theme browser entries.Standard actions
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
⏎ | Open the selected setting tab directly in Obsidian |
⌥ + ⏎ | Open the plugin’s local folder (~/.obsidian/plugins/<id>/) in Finder |
⇧ + ⏎ | Toggle the plugin on or off (enable if disabled, disable if enabled) |
Developer shortcuts
These actions are intended for plugin developers who have cloned a plugin’s repository into their local plugin folder.| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
⌘ + ⏎ | Open the plugin’s local folder in your default Terminal |
⌃ + ⏎ | Copy the plugin’s ID to the clipboard |
fn + ⏎ | Run git pull inside the plugin’s directory to pull the latest changes |
The Terminal shortcut (
⌘ + ⏎) and git pull shortcut (fn + ⏎) only make sense for plugins whose folder contains a .git directory — i.e., repos you have cloned locally for development. They are harmless but have no useful effect on plugins installed through Obsidian’s standard plugin manager. You can change which terminal Alfred uses in Alfred’s settings.Built-in settings tabs
