Second Brain: AI-Native Knowledge Management
A 9,000+ note Obsidian vault connected to AI engines — semantic RAG (ChromaDB), LLM Wiki indexing, and Agent Memory. Every project, idea, lesson, and contact is indexed into a living knowledge graph, queryable in seconds by both humans and AI agents. Built with Obsidian, Python, ChromaDB, and MCP protocol integration.
- Semantic RAG: all-MiniLM-L6-v2 embeddings turn every note into a vector — search by meaning, not keywords
- LLM Wiki: structured index of all 9,000+ notes grouped by area for rapid AI agent navigation
- Agent Memory: shared operational memory across AI sessions — agents log what they did and why
