We’ve been waiting to announce this…

🎟️ Early-bird tickets for the Agentic AI Summit 2026 are officially live!

📍 UC Berkeley | Aug 1–2

🎟️ $99 Student / $249 Standard (limited)

Building on the momentum of our 40,000+ learner Agentic AI MOOC community and the success of the 2025 Summit (2,000+ in-person, 40,000+ virtual attendees), this year’s event will bring together leading researchers, founders, policymakers, and industry experts to explore the future of agentic AI.

We’d love to see you there!

#ClaudeCode sometimes mixes up standard markdown and #ObsidianMD flavored markdown (e.g., > **Note:** instead of > [!note]). These skills teach it the difference.

I'm starting a set of Claude Skills for Obsidian... so far they're centered around helping Claude Code edit .md, .base, and .canvas files
