Description
What variant of Codex are you using?
Codex GUI
What feature would you like to see?
I want a feature so that when I click open a markdown file created or mentioned by Codex, instead of opening it in Codex "Files" view, I want to open it in Obsidian instead.
For example, if the markdown is created in ~/Documents/MainVault/myfile.md and MainVault is an obsidian vault (there exists MainVault/.obsidian folder), i should be able to Cmd+Click the hyperlink to open the obsidian link like obsidian://advanced-uri?vault=MainVault&filepath=myfile.md

Research direction
Start by locating the Codex GUI's markdown hyperlink handling and its existing file-opening path. Use the issue's .obsidian vault condition and obsidian://advanced-uri format as the acceptance criteria, including Cmd+Click behavior. Done means recognized vault files open in Obsidian while other markdown links retain the current behavior.
