In its own words

README.mdmindlessknight/second-brain-operating-system

A clean Obsidian vault template for running a lightweight personal knowledge base with AI agents.

This repository contains structure only. It does not include private notes, transcripts, contacts, client work, browser sessions, credentials, calendars, analytics, or personal documents.

Quick Start

  • Download this repository as a ZIP or clone it.
  • Open the vault/ folder in Obsidian.
  • Read vault/AGENTS.md first if you want an AI coding or writing agent to help maintain the vault.
  • Start with the five main folders: To do/, Notes/, Wiki/, Raw/, and Output/.

Privacy Boundary

The public version is intentionally skeletal:

  • No original note contents were copied.
  • No private folder names were copied.
  • No client, contact, transcript, calendar, message, analytics, or document data is included.
  • Obsidian workspace/session files are ignored because they can expose local state.
  • Local browser, WhatsApp, Claude, Codex, and other tool state is ignored.

Before publishing updates, run:

The check is conservative and cannot prove perfection, but it catches common leaks such as emails, phone numbers, API key patterns, local filesystem paths, and Obsidian workspace state.
