Can I use Obsidian as a tool inside an AI agent in AACFlow?

Yes — this is one of AACFlow's core capabilities. Instead of hard-coding when and how Obsidian is used, you give an AI agent access to Obsidian tools and describe the goal in plain language. The agent decides which tools to call, in what order, and how to handle the results. This means your automation adapts to context rather than breaking when inputs change.
