Obsidian Mind

An Obsidian vault that gives AI coding agents persistent memory. Built for Claude Code, with working hooks for Codex CLI and Gemini CLI. Start a session, talk about your day, and the agent handles the rest — notes, links, indexes, performance tracking. Every conversation builds on the last.

🔴 The Problem

AI coding agents are powerful, but they forget. Every session starts from zero — no context on your goals, your team, your patterns, your wins. You re-explain the same things. You lose decisions made three conversations ago. The knowledge never compounds.

🟢 The Solution

Give your agent a brain.

You: "start session"
Agent: *reads North Star, checks active projects, scans recent memories*
Agent: "You're working on Project Alpha, blocked on the BE contract.
        Last session you decided to split the coordinator. Your 1:1
        with your manager is tomorrow — review brief is ready."

Works with Claude Code (full support), Codex CLI, and Gemini CLI — same hooks, same commands, same vault.

Install via shardmind install or git clone — same vault either way.

⚡ See It In Action

Morning kickoff:

/om-standup
# → loads North Star, active projects, open tasks, recent git changes
# → "You have 2 active projects. The auth refactor is blocked on API contract.
#    Your 1:1 with Sarah is at 2pm — last time she flagged observability."

Brain dump after a meeting:

/om-dump Just had a 1:1 with Sarah. She's happy with the auth work but wants
us to add error monitoring before release. Also, Tom mentioned the cache
migration is deferred to Q2 — we decided to focus on the API contract first.
Decision: defer Redis migration. Win: Sarah praised the auth architecture.

→ Updated org/people/Sarah Chen.md with meeting context
→ Created work/1-1/Sarah 2026-03-26.md with key takeaways
→ Created Decision Record: "Defer Redis migration to Q2"
→ Added to perf/Brag Doc.md: "Auth architecture praised by manager"
→ Updated work/active/Auth Refactor.md with error monitoring task

Incident response:

/om-incident-capture https://slack.com/archives/C0INCIDENT/p123456
# → slack-archaeologist reads every message, thread, and profile
# → people-profiler creates notes for new people involved
# → Full timeline, root cause analysis, brag doc entry

End of day:

You: "wrap up"
# → verifies all notes have links
# → updates indexes
# → brag-spotter finds uncaptured wins
# → suggests improvements

🚀 Quick Start

📦 Install via ShardMind (recommended)

npm install -g shardmind
mkdir my-vault && cd my-vault
shardmind install github:breferrari/obsidian-mind

shardmind install writes into the current directory, so create and enter a fresh folder first. The wizard collects your name, organization, vault purpose, agents to include, and whether to enable QMD; ShardMind then initializes git, optionally bootstraps QMD, and personalizes brain/North Star.md with your answers. Then:

1. Open the installed folder as an Obsidian vault
2. Enable the Obsidian CLI in Settings → General (requires Obsidian 1.12+)
3. Run your agent in the vault directory: claude, codex, or gemini
4. Start talking about work
