JSON Canvas Skill

This skill enables skills-compatible agents to create and edit valid JSON Canvas files (.canvas) used in Obsidian and other applications.

Overview

JSON Canvas is an open file format for infinite canvas data. Canvas files use the .canvas extension and contain valid JSON following the JSON Canvas Spec 1.0.

File Structure

A canvas file contains two top-level arrays:

json

{
  "nodes": [],
  "edges": []
}

nodes (optional): Array of node objects
edges (optional): Array of edge objects connecting nodes

Nodes

Nodes are objects placed on the canvas. There are four node types:

text - Text content with Markdown
file - Reference to files/attachments
link - External URL
group - Visual container for other nodes

Z-Index Ordering

Nodes are ordered by z-index in the array:

First node = bottom layer (displayed below others)
Last node = top layer (displayed above others)

Generic Node Attributes

All nodes share these attributes:

Attribute	Required	Type	Description
`id`	Yes	string	Unique identifier for the node
`type`	Yes	string	Node type: `text`, `file`, `link`, or `group`
`x`	Yes	integer	X position in pixels
`y`	Yes	integer	Y position in pixels
`width`	Yes	integer	Width in pixels
`height`	Yes	integer	Height in pixels
`color`	No	canvasColor	Node color (see Color section)

Text Nodes

Text nodes contain Markdown content.

json

{
  "id": "6f0ad84f44ce9c17",
  "type": "text",
  "x": 0,
  "y": 0,
  "width": 400,
  "height": 200,
  "text": "# Hello World\n\nThis is **Markdown** content."
}

Attribute	Required	Type	Description
`text`	Yes	string	Plain text with Markdown syntax

File Nodes

File nodes reference files or attachments (images, videos, PDFs, notes, etc.).

json

  "type": "file",
  "x": 500,

  "subpath": "#Implementation"
}

Attribute	Required	Type	Description
`file`	Yes	string	Path to file within the system
`subpath`	No	string	Link to heading or block (starts with `#`)

Link Nodes

Link nodes display external URLs.

  "width": 400,
  "height": 200,
  "url": "https://obsidian.md"
}

Attribute	Required	Type	Description
`url`	Yes	string	External URL

Colors

The canvasColor type can be specified in two ways:

Hex Colors

json

{
  "color": "#FF0000"
}

Preset Colors

json

{
  "color": "1"
}

Preset	Color
`"1"`	Red
`"2"`	Orange
`"3"`	Yellow
`"4"`	Green
`"5"`	Cyan
`"6"`	Purple

Note: Specific color values for presets are intentionally undefined, allowing applications to use their own brand colors.

ID Generation

Node and edge IDs must be unique strings. Obsidian generates 16-character hexadecimal IDs:

json

"id": "6f0ad84f44ce9c17"
"id": "a3b2c1d0e9f8g7h6"
"id": "1234567890abcdef"

This format is a 16-character lowercase hex string (64-bit random value).

Layout Guidelines

Positioning

Coordinates can be negative (canvas extends infinitely)
x increases to the right
y increases downward
Position refers to top-left corner of node

Recommended Sizes

Node Type	Suggested Width	Suggested Height
Small text	200-300	80-150
Medium text	300-450	150-300
Large text	400-600	300-500
File preview	300-500	200-400
Link preview	250-400	100-200
Group	Varies	Varies

Spacing

Leave 20-50px padding inside groups
Space nodes 50-100px apart for readability
Align nodes to grid (multiples of 10 or 20) for cleaner layouts

Validation Rules

All id values must be unique across nodes and edges
fromNode and toNode must reference existing node IDs
Required fields must be present for each node type
type must be one of: text, file, link, group
backgroundStyle must be one of: cover, ratio, repeat
fromSide, toSide must be one of: top, right, bottom, left
fromEnd, toEnd must be one of: none, arrow
Color presets must be "1" through "6" or valid hex color
