+### Fixed
+- **Binary file support in `obsidian_read_note`**: Fixed issue #9 where reading binary files (ZIP, images, compiled files, etc.) returned corrupted content due to UTF-8 decoding of raw bytes
+  - stdout is now collected as a raw `Buffer` to preserve bytes before any decoding
+  - Binary files are detected via null byte check and >10% non-printable byte ratio on first 8KB
+  - Binary content is returned as a `BASE64:<base64string>` — clients must base64-decode the value to recover the original binary file
+  - Tool description updated to document the `BASE64:` prefix convention
