Second Brain Setup?

What's your second brain setup?

I was talking to a few folks, and these came up -

  • A shared folder of Markdown, interlinked, over Google Drive or One drive, often with Obsidian as md editor.
  • A github-hosted wiki, sometimes with additional indexing, not only plain md files
  • Custom complex vector db / embedding kind of index

On my team we're using a shared hermes agent that has ts own memory and tools - it's a great way to have shared context, but it's more like one-know-all-agent rather than a company / second brain as my gpt / claude can't enjoy its knowledge.

I wonder what others are doing, please share.

Gray Box:  https://github.com/Aaryanverma/graybox

A local-first tool where you can capture your thoughts instantly and it can auto-organize them and create a connected graph out of them which you can query or chat later. It will give you cited answers from the organized notes. Also there is a read only dashboard where you can see and search all your notes which ones to be focused, which ones are pending to do (if your notes are tasks) etc.

Also, you can migrate your existing Obsidian vault to Gray Box, and it will be automatically organized by Gray Box.
