It could all be done with Claude Code and tools. But it 'just works' and has done all the plumbing for you. The built-in memory systems help too, but again that can be done with Claude Code or others. I think this is just a step in the pre-build systems that work how you want instead of having to work through every bit yourself. I'm sure the big boys are working on more polished offerings that will be cleaner. The Open AI Codex app that just came out today for example.

Actually using it. Threw it on a spare box I had sitting around, mostly as a "second brain" rather than letting it run my life. Honestly, I've tried every PKM system out there—Obsidian, Notion, Roam, plain markdown—and never stuck with any of them. This is the first thing that's clicked. I just chat with it and it figures out what to file where. Everything's just .md files underneath, so I can grep it, git it, whatever. No lock-in. The stuff I'm actually finding useful: it sends me news digests on topics I care about a few times a day, and pings me with reminders via Telegram. Simple stuff, but it works. Could I build this with Claude Code and some glue? Sure. But this was basically working out of the box. Caveats: it chews through tokens fast, and I keep it completely cut off from anything sensitive—no email, no messages, nothing financial. The security story is basically "hope for the best" so I treat it accordingly.

I'm a bit older but am looking for the same so hopefully some promising ideas come in. I've tried several tech-adjacent projects, but they go nowhere and don't refresh me. I'm experimenting with different art mediums now both digital and physical to see if anything grabs me. I'm also trying whittling as I see 'working with your hands' is often advise given on posts like this.

Potential solutions mentioned in the article.

I took calculus in High School just so I could make a comment here saying I did so. It almost cost me my diploma as I didn't want to do the homework. I paid attention in class though and learned just enough to pass the exams.
