Is Obsidian AI Video Notes & Screenshots (YouTube, Udemy, etc) - HoverNotes safe?

Medium risk

HoverNotes lets any webpage send commands that read or change files in the connected local notes vault.

HoverNotes runs a file-system bridge on every webpage and accepts filesystem messages from the page. After you connect a local notes vault, those messages can create, read, update, search, or delete files through the extension's stored access.
