Every step forward records your thoughts and growth.
I believe future AI Agents will be far more than just chatbots. They will directly read and write documents, parse links, and organize context. This space documents my ongoing exploration of local knowledge bases, data structuring, AI Agents and command-line tools.
Why I keep coming back to knowledge bases
Documents are not storage. They are the place where thinking happens. AI becomes useful when it can enter your notes, projects, links and history, then organize, connect and act inside that context.
A few things I care about
Open
Write your own plugins, change anything, never blocked by a closed app’s API. Even the most niche need can ship.
Local-first
The data is mine — it stays on my machine, not on someone else’s server.
Light & fast
Native Rust, no bundled Chromium. Fast startup, small footprint, tiny installer.
Docs as agents
Every note should be readable, writable, linkable and actionable by AI. Documents are not the end state; they are the interface.
For the long run
I only really polish the things I use every day. It gets better slowly.
Restraint
Only build what’s truly needed. No button pile-up, no chasing hype.
