Your Second Brain shouldn't be a passive filing cabinet. It should be an active collaborator that strengthens its own structure over time. This repository is the companion to the AI-Augmented Second Brain blog series, a 6-part guide to building a knowledge management system where AI actively participates in organizing, distilling, and connecting your knowledge. This repo will evolve weekly as new posts are published. Star ⭐ and watch 👁️ to follow along. --- The Three Pillars This approach rests on three pillars that reinforce each other: 📂 Pillar 1 - Structured Knowledge Store (Obsidian + PARA) An Obsidian vault organized using Tiago Forte's PARA method, with a critical design constraint: every structural choice must be machine-readable. Consistent templates. Typed frontmatter. Predictable section layouts. A README that serves as both human documentation and AI grounding context. 🔗 Pillar 2 - Knowledge Graphs in Plain Markdown Obsidian's [[wikilinks]] create a knowledge graph where every note is a node and every link is an edge. Backlinks surface implicit relationships. Dynamic query blocks auto-populate relationship tables. The graph turns a flat collection of files into a connected knowledge system that an AI can traverse, query, and extend, and it encodes where work remains. 🤖 Pillar 3 - Specialized AI Skills Cus","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/jamesmcroft","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/jamesmcroft/obsidian-ai-second-brain/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
