CLAUDE CODE AND OBSIDIAN TURN 4000 NOTES INTO AN... AUTONOMOUS AI TEAMMATE By pointing Claude Code directly at a local Obsidian Markdown vault, a creator turned six years of static notes into an active AI partner. Guided by a single CLAUDE.md file, the terminal agent runs overnight to link orphaned ideas, detect belief contradictions, and draft essay outlines automatically.show more

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.

AN ANTHROPIC LEAD ENGINEER ACCIDENTALLY LEAKED HIS PERSONAL OBSIDIAN.... INSIDE - NOT CODE OR PROMPTS, BUT A DIAGRAM OF HIS OWN BRAIN, ORGANIZED AS A NEURAL NETWORK 8,893 nodes. 4,729 connections. A $10/month app opens Obsidian. 21 inputs, ReLU on every layer. The first hidden layer has 26 neurons, followed by 33, then 24, and so on all the way to the output. Thousands of connections flash in real time this isn’t a conceptual diagram from a blog, but a living brain that powers decision-making within the company. 9,000 documents, each with its own semantic space, all interconnected it earns about $2m a year for sorting Markdown files into the right folders.

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

THIS GUY TURNS NOTES, DOCUMENTS, AND IDEAS INTO AN... AI SECOND BRAIN the system stores all the context of your work and helps claude not forget anything how to build one yourself: install obsidian connect claude code keep your projects, notes, and sessions in one vault link similar ideas together use the graph to discover new connections as a result, claude gets memory of your projects and understands the context without you constantly having to explain everything the more you work, the smarter the system gets don’t collect notes build connections between them insteadshow more

HE BUILT A 100% PRIVATE SECOND BRAIN IN OBSIDIAN... TO AUTOMATE HIS RESEARCH USING HERMES AGENT AND NOTEBOOKLM He visualizes his entire knowledge graph on-premise without paying for cloud subscriptions By connecting Hermes Agent and NotebookLM, developers can index hundreds of documents and generate content locally Four components of this local knowledge architecture: 1. Memory layer - set up an Obsidian PARA vault to store markdown notes and profiles 2. Agent layer - connect Hermes Agent to write files and run background scripts 3. Synthesis layer - use NotebookLM to create structured overviews from raw transcripts 4. Automation layer - trigger cron tasks to synchronize files and calendar standups The setup saves over $4,000 annually while keeping all private files offline Get the full step-by-step configuration guide and setup commands in the article below ↓show more

LLM Knowledge Base → Slides When Andrej Karpathy shared... his LLM Knowledge Base setup, many were wondering how to generate more visual forms of the wiki. There are many options, but I think Gamma is one of the best at producing high-quality, rich presentations. To showcase this, I just built a pipeline that turns my AI papers wiki (1K+ papers across 20 AI agent topics) into polished slide presentations using Gamma. The flow: Obsidian vault → Gamma MCP → embedded preview in my dashboard. I give one command to my agent, which pulls the top papers from each topic (via the wiki), feeds them to Gamma, and renders the presentation inline. The Gamma connector for Claude is a great choice for generating beautiful and professional slides. Easy to use. Go to your Claude instance and add the official Gamma connector. That's it! Claude Code will now have access to all the necessary MCP tools for generating slides. I use the Claude Agent SDK for my agent orchestrator, so I use the official Gamma MCP tools and embed the generated slides in an iframe via my artifact preview. See the clip below for an example.show more

A Harvard sophomore pointed Claude Code at his Obsidian... vault and woke up to 1,847 notes he never wrote. The vault started in September 2024 with 210 notes lecture scraps, 4 problem sets, 3 half-finished essays and by March it was dead, because nobody links notes by hand at 2 AM. So he handed the folder to an agent: read access to 210 files and one instruction, find what connects. It ran for 6 hours and built edges he'd never seen, wiring a thermodynamics lecture to a supply-chain note to a Douyin livestream case study he saved in 2023 and forgot. Graph view at 4 AM showed 1,847 nodes and 11,400 links, a white sphere so dense the center goes solid. His midterm was 9 days out, so he skipped the textbook and asked the vault instead, and it answered in his own words from 3 semesters back. Now the agent runs nightly, pulling 40 new notes a week writing summaries, tagging, linking, killing duplicates while he hasn't typed a note in 5 weeks. He opens the graph most mornings and scrolls for something he doesn't recognize, and there's always something. Tuition runs $59,320 a year; the vault cost one afternoon of setup. He built a second brain, then stopped using the first one.show more

Hyped to share this – I recently built an... AI chat plugin for Obsidian using Cursor Composer. I've been using it for the last couple weeks and its totally changed how I use Obsidian. I use it to reflect, generate ideas, plan my day, and more. It's also great at being a search-and-synthesis machine for my 2,000+ notes – like having a Perplexity for my brain. If you're an Obsidian power user and want to try out the alpha, reply below and I'll DM you details!show more

THIS DEVELOPER USED A 10,000+ STAR OBSIDIAN REPO TO... TURN HIS GROWING VAULT INTO A SEARCHABLE AI MEMORY SYSTEM most people keep adding notes until the graph looks impressive but nobody can find the exact context when a real task starts new note → ai summary → entity links → backlinks → graph update → claude retrieves the right 3–5 files instead of scanning the entire vault the system connects projects, decisions, research, and unfinished ideas, so old context resurfaces automatically instead of disappearing inside hundreds of folders he built the workflow around Claudian, an open-source repo with 10,000+ GitHub stars that brings Claude Code directly into Obsidian → bookmark this before your next 1,000 notes become another beautiful graph that your AI still cannot useshow more

Introducing: OpenGranola 🔥 I built an open source meeting... copilot for macOS. It transcribes both sides of your call on-device, searches your own notes in real time, and hands you talking points right when the conversation needs them. No audio leaves your Mac. Point it at a folder of markdown files, pick any LLM through OpenRouter (Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini, Llama), and it just works. It's invisible to screen share too — nobody knows you have it. The whole thing is open source. Link belowshow more

I just built a Google Ads Builder in Claude... Code that turns one URL into a complete, launch-ready campaign 🤯 Point it at your website and it builds the whole Google Search campaign — keywords, ad groups, every headline, the negative list — structured the way a good paid-search manager would. All inside Claude Code. Perfect for DTC brands and agencies who need Search live but don't have days to build it right. If you're staring at a blank Google Ads account, researching keywords one browser tab at a time, writing 15 headlines per ad group to a 30-character limit, guessing at a negative list while budget quietly leaks on junk clicks... This builds the entire campaign from a single input — your homepage URL: → Reads your site and works out what you sell and who for → Groups keywords into tight, high-intent ad groups → Writes every Responsive Search Ad — 15 headlines, 4 descriptions, to Google's exact limits → Builds a negative-keyword list so you stop paying for junk clicks → Adds sitelinks, callouts, match types, bidding, and a budget split → Exports a Google Ads Editor CSV you import in one click No blank-account paralysis. No keyword rabbit holes. No character-counting 60 headlines by hand. What you get: → A launch-ready campaign from just your URL → Tight ad groups built for Quality Score, not a keyword dump → Every ad written to Google's limits and policy → A one-click CSV import plus a full campaign dashboard Built 100% in Claude Code. No API keys, no Google Ads login. And I'm not sending a playbook this time — I'm giving the whole skill away for free. The actual file. Install it and build your own campaign in 5 minutes.

Tonight I left my laptop turned on, and woke... up in the morning with a $7,000 profit. While I was sleeping, my cloud second brain was analyzing trends and running funnels on autopilot Famous investor Naval Ravikant once brilliantly noted: AI brains are meant for coming up with ideas, not clogging bio-servers with gigabytes of other people's garbage The main point Point Claude at a local folder and feed it all the accumulated digital junk files, articles, reports, notes. The artificial intelligence absorbs this chaos itself, builds ironclad logic, and turns a pile of files into a single, living knowledge base. The system works on the principle of compound interest: the more data you feed it, the more accurately it predicts your next steps and generates ready-made solutions Step-by-step process: Choose a base, either Notion or Obsidian, as long as the cloud is accessible from any device 24/7 Implement the CODE method by saving all the chaos to your inbox, sorting it out, extracting the essence, and monetizing your knowledge Connect AI agents by setting up automation via API so the AI sorts data and generates content on its own while you rest A more detailed guide is described in the article.
