# Commander plugin for Obsidian Commander, originally by phibr0 and now maintained by jsmorabito, lets you place any [[Obsidian]] command — core, community plugin, or your own — anywhere in the interface: the ribbon, the note title bar, the status bar, the tab bar, file and editor context menus, the mobile toolbar, and more. Each placement gets a chosen icon and name, so frequently used actions become one click or tap instead of a trip through the command palette. The same mechanism works in reverse: Commander can hide built-in UI elements you never use, decluttering the workspace. Combined, add-and-remove control means the interface can be reshaped around an actual workflow rather than the defaults. Commander also supports macros — sequences of commands executed in order as a single new command. Since every plugin exposes its actions as commands, a macro can chain, for example, a template insertion, a file move, and a sync trigger into one button. For automated vaults this makes Commander the surface layer: the automation lives in other plugins, and Commander puts it exactly where your hands are, including on mobile where hotkeys are unavailable. ## References - Download: https://obsidian.md/plugins?id=cmdr - Source code: https://github.com/phibr0/obsidian-commander
