@DanielMiessler UI - sometimes I just wanna think, write and read in something more visually appealing than terminal.

Obsidian is Markdown files with frontmatter for relationship definition and tagging. So I do just as good or better in my AI Harness. What am I missing?

Connect your AI agents to fresh data from the internet. A few weeks ago we released Apify Agent Skills and they quickly got popular. Not so hard to see why - unlike MCP, they don't bloat your context window and pull data directly to you.

@dSebastien /interview — reads all context files about me, finds what's missing, asks one question, updates those files

How I use AI skills to maintain my Obsidian vault I have 100+ custom skills that run inside my vault. Think of them as reusable workflows: /bloom — expands outward from any topic through linked notes /contradict — finds beliefs I hold inconsistently across notes /drift — surfaces what I am quietly avoiding

@Sauain Enjoy the stay, Saurav 🌉🇺🇸

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 I am going to spend a month or more in the US, including the SF Bay Area, from the end of April to the end of May. :) 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Besides eating a lot of Tex-Mex food, I am also going to participate in a lot of meetups as a speaker, organiser, attendee, and sponsor. :) First of all, if you are in the Bay Area and in the AI space, I would love to do a coffee chat. ☕ (Don't ask me to have a Chai Tea Latte, PLEASE) If you are a hackathon, meetup, conference organiser in the region and doing something in the timeframe, shoot me a DM, let's see how we can fit in Apify ;) I will already be doing a lot of events, including a bigger AI Agents hackathon in the Bay Area. If you wanna collab, you know the drill.

@dSebastien @obsdmd That's a great approach. I'm writing daily journals as well but I also let Claude read all previous sessions with him and distill some insights from their as well. Also having current.md - summarized last 7 days of journals & sessions.

@vystrcild @obsdmd My setup is actually more involved than this. I capture tons of stuff in my daily notes, and I have AI skills to help me distill the wins, the challenges, etc, and those also feed the eval

The core of my LifeOS in @obsdmd. I'm making big improvements to it because I want to be able to have full clarity about where I'm going in life and why, but also be able to look back more objectively at the past.

@dSebastien @obsdmd Fair point :)

@vystrcild @obsdmd I prefer having "My" to avoid confusion with my other notes :)

@TopClickMediaSA Thanks for sharing! I highly recommend to also test our Agent Skills - github.com/apify/agent-sk…

Get Unlimited Leads Everyday Automatically Using Claude and Apify This video shows exactly how to use Claude AI with Apify MCP to scrape business information using simple text prompts. You can extract emails, Google maps, phone numbers, company data, LinkedIn profiles, and social activity without manual research. #claude #apify #scrape #mcp #leads

@BrockHBriggs What are you building, Brock?

Apify is an unbelievable business.

@borekb Všechny sessions jsou v global .claude složce jako .jsonl soubory. Existuje mnoho OSS toolů, který s tím umí pracovat a vyhledávat. Např.: github.com/daaain/claude-…

Každý den zkouším, jestli se CC a/nebo Codex nenaučily nějaké rozumné hledání v minulých sessions – úplně by stačilo nalít pár zpráv z konverzací do nějaké SQLite databáze nebo něco takového, ale pořád je to strict match proti prvním pár slovům z prvního promptu.. 🤦‍♂️

Skills .sh have new "Official" section. You could access all official and community Apify Agent Skills right there 🙌

I've been journaling every day for 14 years. Few weeks ago I fed all of it into Claude Code. Then I wrote my first blogpost about it. 1M+ views in 24 hours. ...didn't see that coming.

@DanielMiessler I switched to self-hosted n8n a long time ago. Much more useful platform

Zapier is down. Whenever this happens now I consider building my own version of what that service did for me. And I'm sure I'm not alone. 1. Maybe as good or better 2. One less subscription That's a hard environment to run a service in. You have to be unreproducible.

@borekb Sorry za reklamu, ale jednoduchy skill s Apify scraperem to zvládne v pohodě

To je stejně brutální, jak se AI laby nebály přečíst celé knihovny a jiný copyrightovaný obsah, ale jeden blbý X post neumí přečíst ani ChatGPT, ani Gemini, ani Claude 🤷‍♂️. Nevím, jestli za to Elon chce nějak moc nebo z principu chce zvýhodnit Groka, ale nějaký licenční deal bych bral..

@sakhil_ai Thanks for sharing. I wrote some of the insights on my blog (including prompts)

This guy fed 14 years of daily journals into Claude Code turned it into 5,000 markdown files of random thoughts, brain dumps, and daily entries he wasn't planning to ever read them again but figured Claude might find patterns he couldn't see so he prompted it from different angles: > therapist perspective > life coach view > relationship patterns > month by month evolution > year by year growth analysis what he got was BRUTAL because his journals were super self-critical Claude didn't even sugarcoat anything it called out patterns exactly as they were > identified a 4-month cycle of project excitement (something we ALL have) → overcommit → burnout → ditch it > spotted connections between health issues across 20 years of medical records > found behavioral patterns he'd been blind to for over a decade he's now using it as his main self-improvement tool prompts Claude monthly for perspective checks and what things he can do better the crazy part is how AI can see patterns in your own life that you refuse to accept or just can't spot it's like having your very own therapist who's read every single thought you've had for as long as you can remember he posted all his prompts on GitHub and wrote a whole blog breakdown i would do this if I had a journal to see what patterns it can spot in my life. Follow @sakhil_ai me for more hidden gems in dev space 🚀

@BThompson15944 @om_patel5 Trust me, lot of the reading was very uncomfortable but also funny and nostalgic. It was great to counterbalance the findings with positive "strengths" perspective

@om_patel5 100% recommend doing this. I write a short journal entry every night before bed I dump it into Claude every Sunday and work through it Man it can be uncomfortable but has been a tremendous source of growth for me

@twlvone @om_patel5 Well, all those entries live as markdown files in my Obsidian. Planning to leverage also 10+ years of my Oura, Apple Watch and Withings data to have more "plastic" relationship with my past. Will share on my blog

The personal knowledge base angle is massively underexplored. 14 years of journals is more contextual richness than most companies collect about their customers — and it's all from a single continuous perspective. Making that searchable, queryable, and connective is a genuinely different relationship with your own past.

@om_patel5 Thanks for sharing man - it's wild! I never wrote anything on the internet and now it's over 1M views everywhere. Few insights from this experiment are on my blog
