When Obsidian sits in the background, its popups and notices are easy to miss. This plugin automatically brings the Obsidian window forward the moment one appears — with keyword and scope filters so only the alerts you actually care about interrupt you.
Hey hunters! If you keep Obsidian running in the background, you've probably missed sync prompts or plugin notices that popped up behind other windows. This little plugin watches for them and pulls Obsidian to the foreground the moment one appears — and you can filter by keyword and scope so only the alerts that matter interrupt you. Open source — feedback welcome!
Love how scoped the filters are, you can actually decide which popups are worth breaking your flow for instead of all or nothing. That kind of granular control shows real respect for the user's attention.
finally something that fixes the popup problem in obsidian, the keyword filter is a nice touch so im not getting yanked away by every little thing
honestly this is super useful, the only thing i'd want is a small quiet hours setting so it doesn't yank the window forward while i'm presenting or in focus mode at night. basically a do not disturb toggle tied to times of day would make it feel way less intrusive.
Finally something that solves the silent popup problem I keep running into. The scope filter is a nice touch since I only want it grabbing my attention during work vaults, not when I'm journaling at night.
finally something that fixes the most annoying thing about Obsidian for me. the keyword filter is the part that sold it, since i really only want modals popping up when they matter.
