THIS GUY BUILT A BUSINESS SECOND BRAIN WITH CLAUDE CODE + OBSIDIAN IN 3 STEPS Most teams do not need another Notion workspace. They need a place where the company can remember how it works. The video shows a simple setup: 1. Create one empty folder called second brain.... 2. Split it into 3 buckets: raw new knowledge wiki 3. Let Claude Code turn messy company material into connected notes. The useful part is the separation. Raw is where your existing stuff goes: SOPs, sales docs, process notes, client delivery checklists, old Loom summaries, onboarding docs. New knowledge is where fresh outside material lands: articles, clips, tactics, examples, market notes. Wiki is the cleaned version: concepts, roles, processes, SOPs, gaps, reusable decisions. That is where Claude Code becomes more useful than a normal chat window. Instead of asking it to remember random context forever, you give it a folder it can read, edit, and reorganize. Then Obsidian becomes the human interface. The Obsidian Web Clipper captures useful pages into the vault. Claude Code ingests them. The wiki gets updated. Then you can ask questions like: “Does my current workflow actually hold up?” That is the real point. Not “AI notes.” A business memory system that can compare what you do today against new information tomorrow. The caveat: this is not magic company intelligence. If your raw docs are vague, outdated, or full of tribal knowledge, Claude will organize weak inputs into cleaner weak outputs. You still need naming rules, review habits, and someone responsible for deleting junk. But the setup is refreshingly practical. Folder first. Clipper second. Claude Code as the maintainer. No giant knowledge base migration. No complex setup. Just a local vault that can slowly turn scattered business memory into something searchable, editable, and actually reusable.show more

Andrej Karpathy quietly shipped the best second brain idea in years not an app. a pattern. let an llm maintain a wiki of your notes. you dump sources, it reads them, links them, files them. knowledge compounds like interest. someone built it into a free claude code plugin. setup is two commands: claude plugin marketplace add AgriciDaniel/claude-obsidian claude plugin install claude-obsidian@agricidaniel-claude-obsidian then open obsidian, open claude code in the same folder, type /wiki. that's it. your notes are now queryable by claude and they get richer every time you read something. bookmark this. best thing you'll build this weekend.

THIS GUY BUILT AN AUTONOMOUS AI AGENT OUT OF CLAUDE CODE + OBSIDIAN and this is way more interesting than another “use AI to take notes” demo the trick is simple: Obsidian is not the writing app here. it becomes the agent’s memory, task board, and context folder. Claude Code is not just answering prompts. it reads the vault, edits files, follows instructions, and keeps moving through the work like a junior operator with a filesystem. the reusable setup looks like this: 1. create an Obsidian vault for one project 2. keep goals, rules, tasks, decisions, and references as markdown files 3. point Claude Code at the folder 4. give it a clear operating loop: read context → choose next task → execute → write back what changed 5. use the notes as persistent memory instead of re-explaining the project every chat that’s the part people miss. the “agent” is not magic. it’s the boring combination of: - local files - explicit rules - task state - write access - a model that can run through the repo/vault Obsidian makes the memory human-readable. Claude Code makes the memory executable. that combo is why the video worked: it turns a notes app into an operating surface for actual work. best use cases: - content systems - research vaults - coding projects - client ops docs - personal knowledge bases that need actions, not just storage the caveat: if your vault is messy, your agent becomes messy too. folders, naming, “done” criteria, and forbidden actions matter more than the prompt. but once the structure is clean, this is one of the easiest ways to build an agent that remembers what happened yesterday without paying for a full custom app.

Most people use Claude Code like a chatbot, then wonder why it forgets everything by Tuesday. The ones quietly building $10K AI workflows give it a second brain instead, and it’s free. It’s called Obsidian. You download it, point it at one folder on your computer, and that folder becomes a vault. Every note inside it is now something Claude Code can read end to end. Open Claude in that folder and it’s connected, that simple. The trick isn’t the tool, it’s the map. 3 folders, that’s the whole system. Raw, you dump everything here. Notes, transcripts, screenshots, half thoughts, zero structure. Wiki, Claude reads the raw pile and writes clean Wikipedia style articles about it, structured, searchable, permanent. Output, when you want a deliverable, a PDF, a slide deck, a script, it pulls from the wiki and ships it. Most people skip the wiki layer and feed Claude a junk drawer of 400 files, then blame the model when the answers are garbage. The model isn’t the problem, your folder is. Give it a path it can follow and it finds anything in 1 second, give it chaos and it guesses. You don’t even have to design the structure yourself. Open the vault, tell Claude to build a file system that fits your work, and watch it organize your entire brain in one prompt. Free tool, 3 folders, a second brain that compounds while you sleep. The people falling behind are still copy pasting into a chat window.

A 26-YEAR-OLD AI ENGINEER WHOSE BIRMINGHAM THESIS OUTPERFORMED GOOGLE SCHOLAR BY 50% JUST SHIPPED GRAPHIFY: ONE COMMAND TURNS ANY FOLDER INTO A CLAUDE CODE SECOND BRAIN Safi Shamsi built Graphify 48 hours after Karpathy posted his LLM wiki idea. It turns any folder, codebase, docs, PDFs, into a knowledge graph Claude reads instead of grepping. Up to 43x fewer tokens per query. The trick almost nobody is using yet: one flag exports the entire graph as a fully-linked Obsidian vault. Repo: /safishamsi/graphify Setup, end to end: 1. Install: uv tool install graphifyy (or pipx install graphifyy). Verify with graphify --version. 2. Install the skill in Claude Code: graphify claude install. This wires Graphify into Claude Code so you can call it as a skill. 3. Open the folder you want mapped in Claude Code. In the terminal: graphify . It extracts every concept and builds the graph in graphify-out/. 4. Export to Obsidian: graphify . --obsidian. Writes one note per concept, every relationship as a wikilink, every node linked back to its source. 5. Open the new vault in Obsidian (Manage vaults → Open folder as a vault), or drag it as a subfolder into your existing one. That's it. Your Claude Code instance now has a navigable map of the codebase that loads instantly instead of re-reading files every session.

THIS GUY BUILT A GOD-MODE SECOND BRAIN IN 3 STEPS THAT GETS SMARTER EVERY SINGLE DAY AND 10X HIS RESEARCH! Everyone hoards notes they never reopen, but he turned the dead pile into a brain that actually reads itself back, in three steps: > download Obsidian, make a vault, and point Claude Code at the folder > create two folders inside, raw-sources for everything you dump in and wiki where Claude writes the organized version, then drop in Andrej Karpathy's prompt > throw in every article, book note, meeting transcript and piece of research you ever saved and forgot Then you stop searching and start asking the wiki, "what are the gaps in my knowledge", "write me a briefing on this topic", and Claude pulls from your whole vault and answers with citations. Everyone copies the folders, but the part that actually matters is what happens next, every answer gets written back into the wiki and a weekly health check hunts for contradictions and outdated info, so it is not storage you query, it is a brain that compounds every day you use it. The full step by step guide with the Karpathy prompt and the .md files is in the article below.👇 P.S. you can send this article straight to your Claude to get the full context

Claude Code + Obsidian + 1 free GitHub skill = unlimited memory. Almost nobody is running this yet. Here’s the problem nobody tells you. Claude forgets you. Every new chat starts at 0. You re explain your business, your projects, your style every single time. That tax is why most people never compound anything with AI. The fix is 1 skill. It’s called Obsidian Mind. It turns your Obsidian vault into Claude’s long term brain. 2,000 notes, 14 projects, every idea you’ve ever dumped Claude reads it live and writes back to it live. It stops being a chatbot. It becomes a second brain that builds. What it does: → Bridges Claude Code straight into your vault. → Pulls any note in real time no copy paste, no context limit. → Updates your vault as you work Claude writes its own memory. → Links everything into 1 graph Claude can navigate. Day 1: Claude knows your last 6 months. Week 2: it drafts off your own past notes. Week 4: it’s running plays you forgot you wrote down. The people making real money with AI right now aren’t smarter. They just stopped starting from 0 every morning. Setup takes 11 minutes. The skill is free. You’ll have a brain that never forgets.

Fable 5 and Karpathy's knowledge base trick are basically a cheat code. Someone just dropped a full walkthrough on building the most powerful second brain ever Andrej Karpathy shared a simple idea: use an LLM to build personal knowledge bases. Index your sources, let the model organize them, and use Obsidian as the front end. Someone just built the full thing with Claude Code and Fable 5, and walked through every step You drop your sources into a folder (YouTube transcripts, PDFs, articles, meeting notes) and Claude Code reads them, splits them into linked wiki pages, and builds a living second brain that connects everything. It grows on its own as you add more. Where Fable 5 pulls ahead: it found a connection buried across two sources you'd miss reading them separately. And asked to turn the messy web of links into something a beginner could understand, it produced clean, simple HTML in one shot. The same task took a full day on Opus 4.8 and came out worse. The best part: it's all just markdown files with routing. So it's not locked to Claude Code. Plug it into Codex or any agent you want. Give your AI a real knowledge base, and it stops guessing and starts knowing. Bookmark this.

I genuinely don't understand why everyone isn't using this yet. Andrej Karpathy, OpenAI co-founder, posted a simple idea that went massively viral: 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. Claude reads it, links it, 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: 1) Install Obsidian 2) Create a vault 3) Open it in Claude Code 4) Paste Karpathy's wiki idea and tell Claude to build it 5) Claude makes three folders: - raw (for sources) - wiki (for its pages) - CLAUDE. md (that runs it) 6) Drop any source into raw and say: "ingest this" 7) Ask questions across everything, forever Five minutes to set up and you never start from a blank chat again. Full step by step guide below.

This is one of the coolest open-source AI agent projects I've seen in a while: 'Understand Anything' It's a plugin for Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode etc. that analyzes your codebase and turns it into a knowledge base that you can interact with. It explains the codebase to you, rather than showing you the structure. It seems like it's designed for code but I opened my Obsidian vault of podcast highlights in Claude Code, then ran /understand. The result is a knowledge graph that I can search of highlights from 888 podcast episodes and 144K lines of markdown text.

I just built a Claude skill that acts as a second brain for DTC brands 🤯 Drop your ad exports, customer reviews, competitor screenshots, and brand docs into a folder → Claude compiles it all into an organized wiki you can ask questions against. All inside Claude Cowork. Perfect for DTC brands and agencies whose knowledge is scattered across Google Drive, Notion, Meta Ads Manager, Figma, and 47 spreadsheets nobody has opened in 3 months. If every strategic question takes 2 hours to answer because the data lives in 8 different places ... This skill eliminates the entire loop: → Claude scaffolds a DTC folder structure: ads, customers, competitors, brand, performance, notes → You drop every file you have into those folders — messy, unorganized, exactly how you have them now → Claude reads everything and compiles a wiki: hooks-that-work, customer-pains, competitor-angles, brand-voice, performance-patterns, creative-brief-library → Every article is cross-linked and traceable back to the source file → You ask questions against the wiki — "what hooks are actually working?" "what objections come up most?" "where are my competitors weak?" → Claude answers, grounded entirely in your own data → Save the answers back in and the system gets smarter every time you use it No more hunting through 12 tools. No more "where did I save that brief?" No more answering the same question twice. What you get: → A complete DTC brand brain scaffold in 60 seconds → Six core wiki articles Claude populates automatically from your raw files → A schema file that tells Claude exactly how to maintain the wiki for DTC use cases → Monthly health checks that catch contradictions and flag gaps before errors compound → A knowledge base that compounds — every question you ask makes the next answer better Built on a methodology Andrej Karpathy shared for personal knowledge bases, I rebuilt the entire thing for DTC operators: folder structure, schema rules, wiki articles, and question frameworks all tuned for brands and agencies. I put together the full skill file plus a playbook walking through the exact setup and 5 real questions to ask your brand brain.

I’m not prompting Claude anymore - I’m building loops" in this interview he breaks down exactly how a system changes everything: - the memory and context features that turn Claude into a second brain - the knowledge architecture most users don't know Claude can build - the integration layer that connects Claude to your actual workflow - why typing one question at a time is the most expensive way to use Claude if you've been using Claude for months and still start every conversation from scratch with zero context, you don't have a Claude problem. you have a system problem instead of another show tonight, watch this make sure to bookmark it before it gets lost in your feed full guide in the article below

THE OBSIDIAN CEO BUILT 5 CLAUDE CODE SKILLS, AND NOW A 2,400 NOTE VAULT CAN SORT ITSELF AT 7 A.M., FIX BROKEN LINKS, AND RESURFACE IDEAS FROM 2019 IN 10 SECONDS 00:06 he loads the obsidian skill inside claude code, and the graph stops being decoration. claude can read markdown, follow backlinks, edit canvas files, repair dead links, pull project context, and move through the vault like it understands the workspace instead of guessing from one prompt. most people do not have a note problem. they have an abandoned memory problem: 800 notes, 12 folders, 40 unfinished drafts, and a beautiful graph view that never actually helps. the article shows a 33 year old editor with 2,400 markdown files, 8 years of thinking, and zero useful access for a full year. that is why the ceo angle matters. this is not another random plugin. it is claude code learning obsidian’s actual language: backlinks, daily notes, canvas boards, raw captures, processed ideas, broken references, and old drafts buried so deep they might as well be gone. a real system only needs a few rules. one inbox for messy thoughts, one raw folder nobody edits, three backlinks on every new note, and a 7 a.m. run that sorts yesterday before you even open the laptop. weekly synthesis is where it gets dangerous. claude can compress 7 days of notes into one file with themes, contradictions, abandoned ideas, repeated promises, and the exact old note where the next article was hiding. bookmark this before your second brain becomes 2,400 dead files with a pretty graph.

YOUR AI IS FORGETTING EVERYTHING YOU TAUGHT IT YESTERDAY. That is why most outputs still feel generic. The people getting real leverage in 2026 fixed this with one setup: Obsidian + Claude Code. Obsidian stores your thinking. Claude Code reads the patterns. Your notes become permanent context the agent can access anytime: Daily thoughts. Projects. Ideas. Contradictions. Questions you keep returning to. Then the real unlock: Custom slash commands. `/context` loads your recent thinking instantly. `/emerge` finds hidden ideas across your notes. `/challenge` tests your beliefs against your past writing. `/trace` maps how your thinking evolved over time. One critical rule: The AI never writes to the vault. You write. The agent reads. That is what keeps the system valuable. At first it feels like note-taking. Eventually it feels like a second brain.

$THIS MIGHT BE THE #1 OPEN-SOURCE REPO FOR CLAUDE CODE RIGHT NOW. IT GIVES CLAUDE A MEMORY AND SLASHES YOUR TOKEN COST ON EVERY QUESTION The repo is safishamsi/graphify, a free open-source skill that turns any codebase into a knowledge graph Claude Code can read instantly. Instead of grepping through your files every session, Claude gets a map of how everything connects The problem it fixes: Every time you ask Claude Code about a big repo, it does the same thing, greps through dozens of files like a brute-force Ctrl+F, blows through your context window, and sometimes still misses the answer hiding in a file nobody searched. Claude Code has no memory of how your project is structured. Every session starts from zero What it does: It maps your entire codebase into a knowledge graph, capturing not just which files exist, but which functions depend on which, which modules are central, and which files cluster around the same concern. Claude queries the map instead of scanning files How it works, three passes: 1. Code structure, free and local. Tree-sitter parses your files and pulls out classes, functions, imports and call graphs. No LLM, no tokens, just your actual code mapped deterministically 2. Audio and video, if you have them. Transcribed locally and folded into the graph 3. Docs, papers, images. Here an LLM does semantic analysis, figuring out what each document means and where it fits. Only the meaning gets sent up, never your raw source It saves you money: Normally a question about a big repo makes Claude spawn explore agents that scan file after file, eating your context window and your token budget before you get an answer. With the graph already built, Claude queries the map instead of re-reading the codebase every time. Same answer, a fraction of the tokens. The graph only gets built once, then a hook rebuilds it after each commit for free, so you never pay that scanning cost again. The bigger the repo, the bigger the gap The best parts: it's a skill, so once installed Claude knows when to use it without you memorizing commands. It works on non-code folders too, point it at docs or notes and it can spin up an Obsidian vault How to add it to your Claude: 1. Install Claude Code if you haven't: npm install -g Paul Jankura-ai/claude-code 2. Add the skill: claude skill add safishamsi/graphify 3. Open your project folder and run /graphify . to build the graph 4. Optional, make it automatic: graphify hook install so the graph rebuilds after every commit That's it. Ask Claude about your repo and it reads the map instead of burning tokens on a file hunt Bookmark this$

THIS GUY CONNECTED HIS AI AGENTS TO HIS OBSIDIAN AND BUILT A BRAIN THAT LEARNS ON ITS OWN. HERE'S HOW TO BUILD IT Obsidian is just markdown files sitting in a folder. That turns out to be the perfect memory for an AI agent, because an agent can read and write those files directly. He wired his agents into the vault so they pull context from it, do the work, and write what they learned back. The notes aren't the point. The loop is, and it gets sharper every cycle How to build it: 1. Point an agent at your vault. The fastest way, no plugins, no API keys: open a terminal and run npx obsidian-mcp /path/to/your/vault. That exposes your Obsidian folder to Claude as a tool it can read, search, and write to. Add it to your Claude Code or Cowork config and restart 2. Confirm it can see the brain. Ask it: "list the notes in my vault and summarize what's in them." If it reads them back, the connection is live. Now it starts every task with everything the vault already holds instead of from zero 3. Give each agent one job and a write-back rule. Tell it: "research this, then save what you found as a new note in /brain with links to related notes." One agent researches, one summarizes, one plans. Each writes its output back into the vault 4. Close the loop. Add one line to every agent's instructions: "read /brain before starting, write your result back when done." Now each task leaves the vault richer, and the next run reads that before it works. It compounds instead of resetting 5. You only steer. Review what the brain produces, point it at the next thing. The agents handle the reading, writing, and connecting The edge isn't better notes. It's a brain that feeds itself, so the work gets sharper every cycle instead of starting over Bookmark this
