Writing Annotations
An Obsidian plugin for serious writers. Highlight text, leave inline editing comments, and export your annotations as structured context for LLM review — without breaking your writing flow.
Writing Annotations lets you highlight text inside a note and leave a comment directly on it. The annotation lives in the YAML front matter, so your note renders clean when you read it normally. No clutter. But the data is structured and attached to the exact passage you flagged.
If you are working with a local LLM and you hand it a note with embedded annotations, it can see exactly what you want changed and where. The annotations become a precise interface between your thinking and the model.
Features
- Highlight text and leave inline editing comments
- Annotations stored in YAML front matter — clean reading view, structured data
- Export annotations as context for LLM review
- Target specific passages for AI editing without sending the whole draft
Why I built it
My old workflow: write in Obsidian, copy the whole thing into Google Docs to revise with comments, figure out how to get it back. Two tools, two contexts, one unnecessary step.
This removes that. The revision process stays inside Obsidian.
