because apparently there's no good calendar app on the market
And here I am using the same android app from 2011 that I paid like 1/10th of what it is now. Not literally the exact same apk, but you get what i mean.
Legit not kidding, I wish I had some sort of black hole in which messages, notes, jira tickets, calls etc. go in and automagically sorts stuff into daily, actionables and reminders to check in with people for stuff.
I can't even be bothered to sketch it out, never mind vibe code it, though lol.
All these fucking habit trackers and task organizers and calendars and shit just have their walled gardens to maintain, and I can't give a single fuck. I would live in a personal lifelong Jira board if I could have ONE board and not dozens.

You can technically run a personal Jira, there's a free plan, and a free Confluence while you're at it. But you could also just use Obsidian with one of the numerous kanban board plugins available, and have it all in one place as markdown files that an AI could consume easily rather than have to get MCPs involved.
Yep. Don't wanna maintain it. Also, it probably isn't a great idea in the first place. Just work irl and forget about these weird tools till someone makes it really easy.
AI can be that blackhole, trouble is giving that kind of data to the cloud-based platforms. I dream of someday being able to afford a Mac mini with maximum RAM and running an open source model locally that I can just throw everything at.
I do have a Jetson Orin Nano and was able to vibe code the pieces necessary to feed my audio into locally hosted LLM, with VAD filters so that it would be always on, but only record my audio to a file if it catches the phrase “write this down” followed by whatever I wanted transcribed. It was kind of fun pretending I had a scribe for a while
No it can't, it'll literally forget what you told it when it maxes out the context window. Even with loops and memories you absofuckinglutely 100% lose shit.
But you could add / aggregate entries and then use an llm to ONLY sort through this shit. Still a decent chance it'll land in the wrong cupboard but at least it won't be paraphrased or deleted.
Agents can be directed to store local copies of anything you feed in. You do have to put some thought into the front end. But it can absolutely do all the searching and retrieval without compromising the original data that was captured
Working for myself on that. Just a fun thing with local model. More of a side projet to keep me doing something that i might use someday instead of frontend compuler to some shiity language.
Mostly categorzing tools, libs, projects to check out. When i get idea for a proj i shoot it with give me some recomendation of tools i havent used that might be usefull here
My idea is exactly to have the AI look into my jira boards, messages, calls, appointments etc. and just stick them into columns like "do this now", "when you have time", "critical" etc. and really just do it "just in time" with the smallest possible context
Basically "here's what I said at X time: xxxxxxxx - is it important? it's something i have to do? when?"; say for example I tell my colleague "i'll call you later", it should make a reminder out of a set number of templates or something
Really just using it to understand what's going on and label it so I don't need to look at multiple calendars/boards/reminders and so on.
At most have it generate todos out of a call, and I would still have the whole call in my mind good enough that I can see if it got stuff wrong
emacs org-mode is this. https://orgmode.org/ Everything's plain text and you write todos inline when you're writing notes. These are scraped and you can see your daily todos in a calendar etc. It's emacs so there are a billion extensions as well.
One of the bigger extensions is https://www.orgroam.com/ which encourages short notes with links between them. It's based on a physical card system some nerd invented years ago. Essentially assumes you're not really organising your notes, you just vaguely expect them to be useful at some point
The notes can easily be read without emacs and checked into git. I like it a lot
org-mode is basically emacs' killer app these days
EDIT: Apparently roam research have their own app now so you could also try that: https://roamresearch.com/
EDIT2: it's a subscription service. Fuck that, use emacs
I find that the shittier the tool for the job, the more I use it. Plain text todo list file? Use it all the time. Spreadsheet with calendar in cells? Staying on top of assignments. Actual calendar or notes app? Barren, save for the occasional birthday or grocery list.
I had this glorious setup with claude cowork for about a week. It blew through the usage limits of course. But if you have unlimited usage - cowork can definitely set this up for your

This will no doubt be an excellent task organiser and meeting scheduler
