What I made

I was having trouble keeping family plans, household tasks, purchases, and work priorities straight with limited free time. I made a private Obsidian vault so those things had one place to go.

How I use it

I use it myself. I can speak to Codex and ask it to update priorities or daily notes. The vault keeps a record of what happened, what we decided, and what I still need to buy or do. I use a separate vault at work for the same reason.

What I’d change

I added too many folders and subfolders. I would simplify the structure so filing a note does not become another task.

How I built it

I store the notes as Markdown files in a local Obsidian vault. A few Python scripts open files and append notes from my prompts.
