if you want to design with AI agents, these skills are amazing

I also made a plugin based on Refactoring UI (use for polish): https://t.co/hV6iVpBgqf

This is fundamentally why we run a profitable business. Because as long as we're profitable, we can sustain. And when you sustain, you have more opportunities for these magic moments. I've found no better way to bump into more magic than to simply be available for it. There's nothing better than that moment of insight, of catching a glint, of seeing a meh transform into an oh wow, we're on to something.
Today I'm releasing my entire newsletter archive (350+ posts) and all podcast transcripts (300+ episodes) as AI-friendly Markdown files. Plus an MCP server and GitHub repo.
A few months ago I shared my podcast transcripts on a whim, and y'all built the most amazing thingsâan RPG game, a parenting wisdom site, infographics, a Twitter bot, and 50+ other projects.
Let's see what happens when I give you even more data.
Grab the data here: https://t.co/xEPCcPiZHO.
Paid subscribers get all of the data (some 350 posts and 300 transcripts). Free subscribers get a subset.
I donât think anyoneâs ever done anything like this before, and Iâm excited to give you this excuse to play with that AI tool you've been meaning to try.
Hereâs my challenge to you: build something, and let me know about it. Iâll pick my favorite and give you a free 1-year subscription to the newsletter. Just post a link to your project in the comments here: https://t.co/yJDmuCQfOx.
If youâve already built something, slurp in this new data and submit it, too. Iâll pick a winner on April 15th.
Check out today's newsletter post for inspiration on what you could to build: https://t.co/yJDmuCQfOx
LFG.
@jameesy@obsdmd Super cool! Curious - how do you add timestamps to your notes automatically?
Right now I get text added automatically not formatted (not even bullet points) - itâs annoying
PMs donât just ship features. They kill them. Shipping isnât the job. Shipping the right product is. A great PM doesnât fall in love with the roadmap. They fall in love with the problem and have the guts to say: This isnât solving it. This adds complexity. This doesnât matter. Every feature, setting, UI, element should fight to exist.
At Nest, we had one rule:
If you canât explain why it matters, it doesnât ship.
You had to tell us the why.
The reason a real person would care.
That one rule killed dozens of features.
how to use obsidian + claude code to build a 24/7 personal operating system and build your startup:
1. write everything in markdown (daily notes, projects, beliefs, people, meetings)
2. link your notes together so they mirror how your brain actually thinks.
3. install obsidian cli so claude code can read your entire vault + the relationships.
4. stop reexplaining projects every session. use reference files instead.
5. build custom slash commands:
/context â load your full life + work state
/trace â see how an idea evolved over months
/connect â bridge two domains youâve been circling
/ideas â generate startup ideas from your vault
/graduate â promote daily thoughts into real assets
6. keep a strict rule: human writes the vault. agents read it, suggest, execute.
7. let claude aka clode surface patterns youâve been unconsciously circling for years.
8. delegate from inside your notes. one sentence in obsidian â agent handles the rest.
9. treat writing as leverage.the more you write, the more context your agents have.
10. understand this:markdown files are the oxygen of llms.
i really enjoyed seeing how to use obsidian thanks to @internetvin
vin uses ai like a thinking partner wired into his lifeâs work.
99.99% of people wonât do this because it requires reflection + setup.
but once the vault exists, the agent stops being generic.
it starts thinking in your voice.
episode is live on @startupideaspod (more there)
this one is different. send this tweet to a friend.
im still processing how game changer obsidian + claude code is, maybe you too
