# Note Toolbar plugin for Obsidian
This Obsidian plugin by Chris Gurney adds context-aware toolbars to notes. Which toolbar appears depends on the note's folder or frontmatter properties, so daily notes, project notes, and reference notes can each get their own set of controls. Toolbars hold commands, file and folder links, URIs, menus, and scripts, and can sit at the top or bottom of a note, float, dock in the tab bar, or pop up on text selection. A built-in gallery ships 100+ ready-made items, and mobile gets dedicated navigation options.
The power-user features go deep: scripting via Dataview, Templater, JS Engine, or plain JavaScript; Note Toolbar Callouts for placing toolbars inside a note's content; custom URIs to run commands from links; variable substitution in labels and tooltips; and toolbar sharing. It also exposes its features through a CLI and an API for developers, a design I documented in [[Pattern for exposing Obsidian plugin features via the Obsidian CLI]]. GPL 3.0 licensed, runner-up in the Obsidian Gems of the Year 2024 awards.
