Automatically sets or updates the YAML title field of your Markdown notes based on the filename. Includes options for manual command, auto-title on save, and folder exclusions.

• Set YAML title to filename: Adds or updates the title field in your note's YAML frontmatter to match the filename (without extension).
• Auto-set on save: Optionally updates the title automatically every time you save a note.
• Exclude folders: Specify folders (one per line) where notes should NOT be auto-titled.
• Manual command: Run the "Set YAML title to filename" command from the command palette for one-off updates.

Open the plugin settings in Obsidian to configure:

• Auto-set title on save: Toggle to enable or disable automatic title updates when saving.
• Excluded folders: Enter one folder path per line (e.g., Templates/ or Archive/). Notes in these folders will be ignored by the auto-title feature.

1. Enable the plugin in Obsidian settings.
2. (Optional) Open plugin settings to enable "Auto-set title on save" and/or specify excluded folders.
3. Manual command: Open the command palette and run "Set YAML title to filename" on the active note.
4. Automatic: If enabled, just save your note—if it doesn't already have a title (and isn't in an excluded folder), the plugin will set it for you.

Suppose you have a note at Notes/Project Plan.md with this content:

---
date: 2025-06-21
---

# Project Plan
Details...

After saving (with auto-title enabled), it will become:

---
title: Project Plan
date: 2025-06-21
---

# Project Plan
Details...

1. Copy main.js, manifest.json, and (optionally) styles.css to your vault's .obsidian/plugins/auto-title/ folder.
