There's an opportunity right now to build a $100k per month side hustle as an AI Concierge. And you don't even have to be *that* technical to do it. Just high agency. There are probably millions of people out there who see all of the latest AI innovations like Claude Cowork, want to take advantage of them, but have no idea how to actually do that. I know, because I'm one of those people... I had dinner last night with the CEO of a multi-billion dollar tech startup. He was telling me about the full digital assistant/employee he just hacked together over the weekend. All of the things it's doing, how it's been an unlock for his workflows and life. I told him I'd gladly pay him $5000 to come to my house and spend the day building me one using the same approach. He laughed that he'd happily do that (though obviously won't given his day job). There's a real, high cash flow opportunity for a hustler to launch a services business as an AI Concierge for the tech curious. Ideally they would physically show up and build out a tool (or suite) to help an individual leverage the latest for their business and life. I bet you could charge $5-10k for the initial upfront work and then some low ongoing service fee to keep the thing up to date (if the person wants that and needs help with it). 5-10 clients per month and you have a meaningful cash flow engine. All comes down to the quality of what you deliver long term, but my guess is people would see a Month 1 positive ROI on the investment and referrals to their friends would drive the entire business. Just a thought...

@rchitectopteryx and if you want to pair with some commands: delegatewithclaude.com/commands

@rchitectopteryx got it, appreciate it, should be fixed in v1.0.10!

As soon as I encountered computers, I dreamt of a smart AI sidekick that could organize my thoughts and collaborate with me on them. Obsidian with @dereklarso's Claude Sidebar has done that. My life is transformed overnight again.

4/ Here's the link to set it up: github.com/derek-larson14…

3/ Built an Obsidian plugin that allows full Claude Code desktop functionality on any iOS / Android device. Can access your Mac’s terminal, edit files inside of and outside of the vault, run code, etc.

1/ Running Claude Code from any phone or tablet

I've been running my life through Claude Code + Obsidian for the past 6 months. But a little piece of me died every time I had to open the terminal, navigate to the vault, resize the windows, toggle apps, etc. I built a plugin that embeds Claude Code in the Obsidian sidebar.

@wschenk nice, git is awesome for enabling seeing how things change. are you using obsidian as well? added plugins I use for that to the repo. also sharing more on the setup here: delegatewithclaude.com

@dereklarso I wrote a command that synced the project status with our github projects and commit logs, which is useful to see what else has been going on everywhere.

github.com/derek-larson14… Feed The beast is a skeliton claude code project to help managed your organization. "go through my repos one as a time and ask me about them" and then it documented it's findings. Very promising. Really interesting stuff @dereklarso

There wasn't a great way to use OpenAI, Gemini, etc. models from Claude Code. Built a Claude Code Agent that routes to external LLMs (Grok, Gemini, GPT-5, etc.) via OpenRouter - just mention the model name: github.com/derek-larson14… cc: @ajflores1604

10 AI editors evaluating an essay in parallel - each with a different book summary as context. Via Claude Code sub-agents

Kimi K2 vs Opus 4.1

I was eating pho with a friend in Williamsburg. He told me his CEO - who'd never written a line of code - was running their company from an AI code editor. I almost fell out of my chair. OF COURSE. WHY HAD I NOT THOUGHT OF THAT. I've since deleted ChatGPT, Notion, Todoist, Google Keep, Airtable, Perplexity, my CRM. Now it's text files + letting Claude Code run wild.

@JakeVollkommer 💯 optimal

@dereklarso Someone told me about 5 years ago to only get your news from other people — never looked back

In November, a friend and I did something reckless. We decided to give up the news for 156 days. No social feeds. No headlines. No podcasts. Cold turkey. Here’s what I learned — and why I may never go back.
