Built for Claude Code
ships .claude CLAUDE.md and nothing for other agents.
In its own words
A Claude Code-native template — paste one prompt, get started in 5 minutes, fully populated in 10. Plain markdown, no SaaS, no lock-in, compounding from day one.
"A second brain is a second brain — it's a filing, compiling and synthesising system that augments decision making. Why is it limited to a role or a job title?"
Your second brain lives in git. Paste one prompt. Populated in under 10 minutes.
Plain markdown. No app. No SaaS. No lock-in. Claude Code is the runtime; Obsidian is an optional reader; git is the sync. The brain compounds — every new source connects to what came before via 3-layer provenance, every decision chains to what it builds on, every wiki page enriches instead of overwriting.
Get your own
Three steps. Under 10 minutes.

Setup prompt — copy all (~60 lines, includes 5 hard rules)
Claude Code reads the repo's CLAUDE.md, becomes the setup wizard, and walks you through: 5 questions → foundational files seeded → your inbox artifacts ingested → /orient greets you with your populated brain. $0/month to run.
No Claude Code? See SETUP-GUIDE.md for the same flow on ChatGPT / Claude Desktop / Cursor / Copilot / manual. ~15 minutes.
