Calixo Calculators — Obsidian Plugin

A calculator side panel next to your notes — open it from the ribbon or the command palette, search, and calculate without leaving your vault. Runs entirely inside Obsidian; nothing is sent to a server.

Download the plugin

Install it

Not in the Community Plugins directory yet, so installing takes one manual step — copying a folder into your vault, which Obsidian fully supports without any extra toggle beyond enabling community plugins:

  1. Download the zip and unzip it — you'll get a folder containing manifest.json, main.js and styles.css.
  2. In your vault's folder, open .obsidian/plugins/ (create it if it doesn't exist yet), then create a subfolder named calixo-calculators.
  3. Copy the three unzipped files directly into that calixo-calculators folder.
  4. In Obsidian, go to Settings → Community plugins, turn on Community plugins if it's off, then find Calixo Calculators in the list and enable it.
  5. Click the calculator icon in the left ribbon, or run Open calculator from the command palette (Ctrl/Cmd+P).

What data does it use?

None of your input ever leaves your vault. The plugin bundles the same calculation engine that runs calixo.cloud, so every result computes locally and instantly, with no network request and no account.

FAQ

Is this safe to install manually?

Yes — copying a plugin folder into .obsidian/plugins/ is how every Obsidian plugin works under the hood; the Community Plugins browser just automates this same copy step for plugins that have gone through directory review.

Will it stay up to date?

Re-download and replace the three files whenever a new calculator is added. A Community Plugins directory listing (with automatic updates) is planned.

Does it work on Obsidian mobile?

Yes — the plugin has no desktop-only dependencies.
