I genuinely don't understand why everyone isn't using this... yet Andrej Karpathy, a co-founder of OpenAI, posted a simple idea that hit 16 million views: stop using AI to write code, use it to build a second brain. You point Claude Code at a folder, drop in any source, an article, a transcript, a PDF, and Claude reads it, links it, and files it into a living wiki of everything you know. It compounds like interest, the more you feed it, the smarter it gets. Here's the whole thing: > Install Obsidian, create a vault, open it in Claude Code > Paste Karpathy's wiki idea file and tell Claude to build it > Claude makes three folders: raw for sources, wiki for its pages, a CLAUDE.md that runs it > Drop any source into raw and say "ingest this" > Ask questions across everything, forever Five minutes to set up, and you never start from a blank chat again.

BUILD KARPATHY'S SECOND BRAIN WITH CLAUDE FABLE 5 +... OBSIDIAN Andrej Karpathy (openai co-founder) shared an architecture that turns Claude into a persistent second brain instead of a basic chat window how it works: > you point Claude Code at an Obsidian vault folder > you drop articles, PDFs, or video transcripts into raw folders > Claude reads the files, updates topic summaries, and cross-references everything > the knowledge base compounds like interest instead of resetting on every new chat the setup is simple: > install and create a local vault directory > open the directory in Claude Code and paste Karpathy's wiki prompt: > > let the agent generate raw, wiki, and CLAUDE.md schema directories > drop any text file into raw and tell the model to ingest it > ask questions across the whole vault and query compiled summaries this eliminates rag database overhead and keeps your local vault organized how do you manage your local knowledge base?show more

Claude Code feels completely different once you install this.... Anthropic quietly released an official plugin called claude-code-setup and it basically turns Claude Code from “pretty good” into an actual AI dev environment. It scans your project and recommends: → hooks → skills → MCP servers → subagents → automations Then sets everything up step-by-step for you. Most people are using Claude Code completely vanilla… which is why their experience feels messy. The real power comes from the ecosystem around it. Install: /plugin install claude-code-setup@claude-plugins-official Bookmark this before you forget it.show more

Karpathy method + Claude Code reading your whole Obsidian... vault is the smartest second brain on earth. The method is simple and brutal. If you can’t build a thing from scratch, you don’t know it. Tutorials are fake learning and your brain deletes them in 3 days. Most people ignore this. They build a second brain that just sits there, folders of notes nobody reopens, dead text. Point Claude Code at the vault and it wakes up. 5,000 notes, one mind. It reads all of it and answers in your own words and your own proofs, not a model’s guess. Then the loop closes. Want to understand neural nets? Skip the 3-hour video and ask Claude Code to build a tiny one. 200 lines from scratch. Watch it train, break a layer, watch it fail, fix it. It clicks in 20 minutes instead of 3 weeks. The second it lands the note gets written. One idea per file, linked to 10 others, dropped into the vault while the memory is still hot. Now it compounds. Month 1: is 60 notes. Month 6 is 900. Every new note pulls in old ones, so you ask anything and the answer comes from your brain, not the internet. Before: 40 tabs, 6 half read PDF, 0 retained. After: build it once, own it for life. Setup takes 4 minutes. Plain text, no lock-in. A second brain nobody reads is a graveyard. Yours just started thinking.show more

An Asian guy discovered a method to learn any... knowledge fast using AI. The key is Claude + Obsidian. Most people learn slowly: read, forget, read again, forget again. His method: use Claude to break any content into small, interconnected notes. Use Obsidian to link them, so every piece of knowledge is never isolated. Slow method: highlight books, keep going, forget after a week. Fast method: Claude breaks it into atomic notes, Obsidian links them into a network. Six months later, a new idea instantly connects to twenty things you already know. I compiled the full A–Z guide to building this second brain with Claude and Obsidian that most people have never discovered. Article belowshow more

Claude Code Scheduled Tasks is now available... here's a... solid idea to connect it with Telegram Save this so you don't forget to set it up! First, ask Claude to add a simple Telegram messaging module to your repo. You can use the Telegram Bot Builder Skill from Link: Install command: npx claude-code-templates@latest --skill enterprise-communication/telegram-bot-builder Once the module is in your project, grab your bot credentials from BotFather and add the bot ID to your .env file That's it! ✅ Now every Scheduled Task you create should end with an instruction for Claude to send the task result to Telegram using that module. Claude will handle the delivery automatically on every task it runsshow more

Claude Design + Shopify is f*cking ridiculous 🤯 You... can now publish pages from Claude Design → Claude Code → Shopify. Built 100% with Claude Design, Claude Code, and the Shopify CLI. Perfect for DTC brands and agencies who want to skip the design → dev handoff entirely. Here's how it works: → Design any landing page in Claude Design → Export as a zip and drop it into Claude Code → Install the Shopify + Shopify AI Toolkit plugins → Prompt Claude to convert the HTML into a Shopify page template + push to live theme → Claude uploads the images, deploys the files, and creates a published page No more handing designs off to a dev and waiting 2 weeks for a Shopify page. What you get: - A workflow that turns any Claude Design page into a real Shopify page template - Editable sections so your marketing team can swap copy, images, and CTAs without code - Images uploaded straight to Shopify Files automatically - A files-only deploy that only touches what's new in your live theme - A repeatable pipeline you can use every time you design a new landing page This is essentially the design-to-deploy pipeline brands have been waiting for. I put together a step-by-step playbook for going from Claude Design → published Shopify page. Every install, every plugin, every command, and the exact prompt that runs the whole thing.

THIS IS WHAT YOUR SECOND BRAIN SHOULD LOOK LIKE... most people dump notes into obsidian and call it a second brain it’s not a second brain it’s a second drawer karpathy just dropped the pattern that changes this and it’s called the llm wiki every time you add a source ai reads it, extracts key claims, updates every connected note and flags contradictions your obsidian stops being an archive and starts being alive save this and show it to someone still using notion as a second brain full breakdown in the article ↓show more

Claude Code 2.1.90 just dropped with a new /powerup... command Run it and you get interactive lessons that teach you how to use Claude Code right inside the tool. It's solid and has a lot of potential for learning directly in the terminal. Curious how the UI will look in VSCode and Claude Code Desktop. Going to keep digging into this new release!show more

HERMES AGENT HAS A SECOND BRAIN. 1,100+ KNOWLEDGE FILES.... AUTO-LINKED. SELF-IMPROVING. GROWING EVERY NIGHT. THIS IS THE OBSIDIAN GRAPH BEHIND IT. every dot = one knowledge file (markdown) every line = one wiki-link between files every color = one category (skills, notes, decisions, sources, entities) HOW IT BUILDS ITSELF: Hermes ships with a bundled LLM Wiki skill. based on Andrej Karpathy's pattern. unlike RAG (rediscovers knowledge from scratch every query), the wiki compiles knowledge once and keeps it current. when you feed the agent a source: → it reads the content → writes a structured markdown page → auto-links to every related existing page → flags contradictions with previous entries → updates all affected pages one source in. multiple connections created. the graph grows denser with every entry. WHAT FEEDS THE WIKI: → articles and URLs you find interesting → meeting transcripts → PDF documents and research papers → conversation history from Hermes sessions → Claude Code and Codex session history → Slack logs, email threads, saved notes → YouTube transcripts → raw text dropped into a _raw/ folder the obsidian-wiki package supports multi-agent ingest from Hermes, Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, Pi, Windsurf, and ChatGPT exports. install: pip install obsidian-wiki obsidian-wiki setup --vault ~/wiki AUTOMATE THE GROWTH: set cron jobs to feed the wiki overnight: "every day at 9am, check for new meetings. ingest transcripts into the wiki." "every week, check arXiv for new papers in [niche]. summarize and file into the wiki." "every day, ingest today's Hermes sessions into the wiki under session-history." month 1: 50 entries. scattered. month 3: 300+ entries. cross-referenced. month 6: 1,000+ entries. the agent surfaces patterns you never searched for. WHY OBSIDIAN: the wiki is plain markdown files. no database. no lock-in. open it in Obsidian for graph view: → nodes show knowledge density → links show how ideas connect → clusters reveal your strongest domains → orphan nodes reveal gaps Hermes writes from a VPS. Obsidian reads on your laptop. obsidian-headless syncs without a GUI. agent writes from the server, you browse on your device. FOUR MEMORY LAYERS: Layer 1: memory.md + user.md (~2,200 + 1,375 chars. short-term.) Layer 2: SQLite with FTS5 (full session transcripts. searchable.) Layer 3: external providers (Mem0, SuperMemory, Honcho. optional.) Layer 4: Obsidian wiki via LLM Wiki skill (unlimited. compounding. the long-term brain.) layers 1-3 handle memory. layer 4 handles knowledge. the graph in this post is layer 4. SETUP: set in Desktop app, Dashboard, or config.yaml: WIKI_PATH=~/wiki OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH=~/wiki first run: Hermes asks for your domain. answer with your niche. the skill builds SCHEMA.md with tag taxonomy. after that: "index this into my wiki: [URL or text]" the wiki grows. the graph densifies. the agent gets smarter because the knowledge base got smarter. full 15 levels breakdown in the article 👇show more

Claude Code + Google Stitch 2.0 is f*cking cracked... 🤯 Google just dropped a free AI design agent that solves Claude Code's biggest weakness: frontend design. One screenshot of a high-converting landing page → a production-ready site for your brand in minutes. All inside Google Stitch + Claude Code. Perfect for DTC brands and agencies who are building advertorial pages and product launch pages for Meta but burning days on designer back-and-forth. If you're running Meta ads and need 5-10 different landing pages testing different hooks, angles, and offers — each one targeting a different audience and pain point — you know the bottleneck isn't the ads. It's the pages. Briefing designers, waiting for revisions, paying $2-5K per page. Stitch eliminates the design bottleneck: → Find a high-converting advertorial that's scaling on Meta → Screenshot it and drop it into Stitch (powered by Gemini 3.1) → Stitch redesigns it with your brand's colors, fonts, and imagery using Nano Banana 2 → Edit sections visually — headlines, CTAs, layouts — without touching code → Export the code and paste it into Claude Code → Claude builds the full production site and deploys to Vercel or Netlify in 60 seconds No designer. No $3K per landing page. No Claude Code frontend that looks like a template from 2019. What you get: → Designer-quality landing pages and advertorials built in minutes, not weeks → Visual editing so you actually see the design before you code it → Nano Banana 2 generating on-brand product imagery and hero shots → A repeatable system — new angle, new page, same pipeline Built 100% with Google Stitch 2.0 + Claude Code. I put together a full playbook showing the exact workflow: how to find winning pages, redesign them in Stitch, and deploy with Claude Code.

ANTHROPIC JUST TURNED AI AGENTS INTO GIT REPOS Anthropic... shipped "ant" - a CLI that runs every Claude API endpoint straight from your terminal. The headline isn't the terminal access. It's that you can now version-control an AI agent as YAML in Git and have CI sync it to the Claude Platform, the same way you ship code. - Every API resource is a subcommand: messages, models, files, agents, sessions - Define an agent in a YAML file, check it into your repo, and keep it in sync with one update command - Spin up a session, send it an event, then pull every event and tool call back from the same CLI - Claude Code knows how to drive ant out of the box - it shells out and reads the results with no glue code Agents just stopped being prompts you babysit and became infrastructure you deploy.show more

one of my favorite ways to use claude code... skills right now - combining remotion with claude-in-chrome for motion video creation. the workflow is addictive. the clip you see here was produced with minimal prompting effort let me know if you would like me to write a full break down of this process. you describe to claude code what you want, claude code writes the remotion components, opens the remotion studio (via browser) with claude-in-chrome, sees the actual rendered output, and iterates on it in real time. need the arrows pointing to the center of the bubbles instead of the edge? just say it. need the layout shifted to the center? say it. claude sees the preview, adjusts the code, re-renders. then when you're happy you tell claude code to render the final video. but skills are what make this possible. remotion knowledge + browser automation + the taste to iterate visually. no copy pasting screenshots back and forth. no "can you try moving it 10px to the right" over chat. it just looks and fixes. this is the kind of workflow that makes you realize how much further claude code can go beyond just writing code in a terminal. i didn't touch any code while working on the clip you see if you haven't tried combining skills together like this - start experimenting. the skills combos is where the magic is at.show more

I literally don't use Claude anymore... Just Claude Code... and Codex in the web. This is a presentation I had Opus generate after doing research... And if you save the prompt you can have it generate in any style you want.show more

Simplicity is at the heart of great software. This... is one of the reasons why Claude Code has been sticky for me. As a builder, I love planning and brainstorming, and this is now a key focus of Claude Code. I use Shift + Tab a lot to cycle between brainstorming, planning, and execution. This functionality provides the appropriate interface for me to either be very involved or less involved as I please. This works particularly well when building out new and complex features or entire new projects. This saves a huge amount of time. It allows me to tune Claude Code to execute and build more effectively. It also builds a loop of trust, and I often (surprisingly) find Claude Code asking for clarifications when it's confused. Coding agents don't normally do that. I have shared before on the power of brainstorming with AI for longer times. Try it and you will not be disappointed. Vibe coding is fun, but pair it with intentional development cycles, and you watch how far you can take a project with coding agents today.show more

THIS MAN HASN’T HAD A SINGLE ORIGINAL IDEA IN... 8 WEEKS. CLAUDE HAS ALL OF THEM BEFORE HE WAKES UP he gave claude his obsidian vault on a saturday by monday it found a link between two notes written 6 weeks apart in different folders he turned that connection into his best-performing post his competitors are still organizing folders and writing morning pages and brainstorming in notion the only difference is one file called CLAUDE.md every note = fuel and every morning = synthesis and every week = ideas compounding faster than he can publish them this is not a tool anymore and this is not even an assistant this is a second brain that studied you for 2 months straight bookmark & like this or lose it forevershow more

Claude Mobile starts the idea... Ghostty finishes it I... basically use Claude Mobile as a notepad now. Whenever something comes to mind, I open the app, pick a repo, and ask Claude to start exploring. Then I just let it run while I go on with my day. Later I jump into Claude Desktop and I’m right back in the same session, with context, structure, and a clearer shape of the idea. I tweak a few things to set up the coding phase. Finally, one click to Ghostty (video), open a couple of worktrees, and start working on the PR. IMPORTANT: when you move to Ghostty, it must be the exact same repo you started on mobile, otherwise the --teleport command will failshow more

Very strange behavior in Claude Code: after specifically telling... Claude to use gemini-3-flash-preview, (and even explaining that it's a new model that just came out), Claude refuses to use it, getting stuck in a loop of making non-edits which keep the old version. It gets skeptical and apparently doesn't believe that the model exists (?)show more
