The way the extension was built it requires Obsidian to be open and focus it. The "silent" part just means it wont focus that note inside Obsidian.

I realize it's a bit clunky but it's a limitation of the advanced uri plugin that powers this extension, which is similar to pasting a URL in the browser and it opening Obsidian

Thanks so much for your work on this extension, it is really appreciated.

While the extension works really nicely, it would be cool if Obsidian was not foregrounded, at least as an option.

Is there way we could work out how we might do this?

I think the entire plugin would need to be rewritten using the obsidian plugin api (may or may not work) or otherwise write out the functionality in node explicitly. I think it will require a lot of work. If someone has the time I'm willing to help and audit the code. Otherwise I'll just need to find the time myself eventually since I agree it's an ux failure as it functions now.
