Reads not satisfied by ContentCache go through the transport layer to `/api/fs/readFile`. Sync calls use synchronous XHR to keep Obsidian's pre-boot module code working. Async calls use fetch. The transport handles vault id injection, base64 encoding for binary files, and mapping HTTP error codes back to Node errno values (`ENOENT`, `EEXIST`, `ENOTDIR`).

Writes go through a server-side write coalescer (`packages/server-core/src/write-coalescer.js`) designed for slow filesystems like rclone FUSE mounts. The first write to a path goes to disk immediately. Subsequent writes within a configurable window (default 5 seconds, `WRITE_COALESCE_MS`) are buffered and flushed when the debounce timer fires; the timer resets on each write. Buffered writes return to the HTTP client immediately with synthetic metadata so connection-pool starvation on rapid-fire writes (e.g. `workspace.json` autosaves) doesn't stall unrelated reads. Reads for pending paths serve the buffered content so clients never see stale data. All pending writes are flushed on graceful shutdown.

The shim handles this transparently. `window.fetch` and `window.requestUrl` are intercepted. Same-origin requests pass through unchanged. Cross-origin requests are POSTed to `/api/proxy`, which performs the outbound call from the server with headers that mimic Obsidian's desktop runtime: `Origin: app://obsidian.md` and the browser's own User-Agent. The response body is returned base64-encoded so binary content survives the JSON round-trip; the shim decodes it and hands the caller a normal `Response` or `requestUrl` result.

The proxy itself is intentionally generic. It forwards method, headers, and body verbatim and returns whatever the upstream sent. In demo mode, an allowlist restricts the hostname to a known-safe set; in normal self-hosted mode there's no restriction, which is one of the reasons the server needs to be behind authentication when exposed to the internet.

The proxy itself is intentionally generic. It forwards method, headers, and body verbatim and returns whatever the upstream sent. It always rejects requests whose hostname resolves to a private, loopback, or link-local address (SSRF guard). Outbound access is governed by `proxyMode`: `any` (the default) reaches any public host, `allowlist` restricts to a configured host list, and `disabled` blocks all proxying; demo mode pins it to `allowlist`. Under the default `any`, the proxy is an open relay to public hosts, which is one of the reasons the server needs to be behind authentication when exposed to the internet.
