the-vault
Markdown in Git that Claude Code and Codex sessions in any of my repos can search and add to.
A session can ask it what we already know: last month's fix, a decision and its reason, how a tool behaves past its docs.
I read it in Obsidian, the agents through a search script. What a session learns lands in a raw folder, searchable at once. Nothing has to be filed first.
When a capture comes up a second time, a vault session can distill it into a wiki note and update the notes around it. Most never need that.
Some of the work has been taking automation out: the scheduled agents and the note suggestions went once I checked whether anything acted on them.
The format started from Karpathy's gist on personal AI context.
