A chief of staff reads everything you've read, remembers everything you've forgotten, and briefs you every morning on what matters.
Here's how to build one for $0.
What You Need Before You Start
Obsidian — download at obsidian.md. Free for personal use. Your notes are plain markdown files stored locally on your machine.
Vellum — create your account at vellum.ai. Credits are prepaid and passed through at cost with zero markup. Light daily usage runs a few dollars a month.
Readwise — readwise.io. Aggregates every highlight you make across articles, Kindle, Twitter bookmarks, and Pocket into one place. Has a native Obsidian integration that routes everything automatically.
N8N — n8n.io. Open source automation tool. Runs the workflows that connect your capture sources to your vault. Self-host it or use their cloud version.
Now you have everything you need, go through these next steps.
Step One: Build The Vault Architecture
Open Obsidian. Create a new vault. Name it CHIEF.
Now create this exact folder structure:
CHIEF/
├── 00-INBOX/
├── 01-CAPTURES/
│ ├── articles/
│ ├── ideas/
│ ├── patterns/
│ ├── questions/
│ └── numbers/
├── 02-CONNECTIONS/
├── 03-PROJECTS/
└── 04-VELLUM/
├── VELLUM.md
└── workflows/
This structure is not arbitrary. Every folder has exactly one job.
00-INBOX is where everything lands first. Unprocessed. Raw. The goal at capture time is speed not structure. You never sort things manually at capture time.
01-CAPTURES is organized by note type not topic. This is the most important architectural decision in the entire system. When you organize by topic a note about a crypto pattern and a note about a psychological principle never meet. When you organize by type they both land in the patterns folder and Vellum finds the connection between them automatically.
02-CONNECTIONS is where synthesized insights live. These are not raw captures. They are new ideas that emerge from the relationship between two or more notes. This is where your best thinking comes from.
03-PROJECTS is for active work. One subfolder per project. Everything related to what you are currently researching or building lives here.
04-VELLUM is the intelligence layer's working directory. This is where Vellum reads its instructions and stores its working files.
Step Two: Install The Essential Plugins
In Obsidian go to Settings → Community Plugins → turn off Safe Mode → Browse.
Install these three:
Templater — runs dynamic templates with real logic. You will use this for automated note formatting when captures arrive from N8N.
Dataview — queries your vault like a database. Surfaces notes by tag, date, or any property you define. Essential for the weekly connection sessions.
Obsidian Git — backs up your entire vault to a private GitHub repository automatically every hour. Set it once. Never think about it again.
Step Three: Set Up Automated Capture
The capture layer has one job. Collect everything without asking anything of you.
Every friction point in capture is a future gap in your knowledge base. Set this up once. Never touch it again.
Articles and highlights:
Install Readwise at readwise.io.
Add the browser extension. Every article you read, highlight the sentences that matter. Readwise stores them automatically. You do nothing else. No tagging. No summarizing. Highlight and move on.
Enable the native Obsidian sync inside Readwise settings. Every highlight flows into your 01-CAPTURES/articles/ folder automatically as a formatted markdown file.
Quick capture from anywhere:
Build a Telegram bot that accepts any message you send and routes it directly to your 00-INBOX folder.
Copy this N8N workflow exactly:
Node 1: Telegram Trigger → Event: message → Chat ID: your_bot_id
Node 2: Code Node → Filename: 00-INBOX/{{date}}-capture.md → Content:
## Quick Capture
{{message}} Date: {{date}} Source: Telegram
Node 3: Write File → Path: /your-vault/00-INBOX/ → Operation: create
Takes 30 minutes to build. Runs forever after that.
An idea that hits you at 2am. A wallet you want to track. A pattern you noticed in the market. Send it to the bot. It lands in your vault automatically.
Voice notes:
Record anything longer than a quick thought as a voice memo. Run it through Whisper for a clean transcript. Paste the transcript into your Telegram bot. It lands in INBOX automatically.
Step Four: Write The VELLUM.md File
This is the most important file in the entire system.
Without it Vellum starts every session knowing nothing about who you are, what you are working on, or what you want from it. With it Vellum is a collaborator who has been reading your notes for months.
Create this file at 04-VELLUM/VELLUM.md. Copy this template exactly:
## CHIEF SYSTEM — VELLUM.md
Identity
My name is [YOUR NAME]. I am [WHAT YOU DO — be specific]. My focus right now: [The one thing you are trying to get better at]. My goals for 2026: [3 specific outcomes you are working toward].
This Vault
This is my permanent knowledge base and thinking system. Every note is raw material for decisions, research, and original thinking. Nothing here is decoration.
Vault Structure
- 00-INBOX: unprocessed captures — always check here first
- 01-CAPTURES/articles: processed highlights and article notes
- 01-CAPTURES/ideas: my own thinking and observations
- 01-CAPTURES/patterns: the same principle appearing in different domains
- 01-CAPTURES/questions: things I genuinely do not know the answer to
- 01-CAPTURES/numbers: real data points with specific numbers attached
- 02-CONNECTIONS: synthesized insights from two or more captured notes
- 03-PROJECTS: active research and work folders
- 04-VELLUM: your working directory
Current Projects
Active: [What you are building or researching right now] Stuck on: [Where you need the most thinking help] Next milestone: [What done looks like for your current sprint]
What I Want From You
- Surface connections I have not seen across my notes
- Find patterns in what I am reading before I consciously recognize them
- When I ask what to focus on, answer from the vault context not generically
- Flag when something I currently believe contradicts something I saved earlier
- Challenge my assumptions before agreeing with them
## What I Am Reading And Thinking About Right Now
[Update this every Monday — current obsessions, active questions, things puzzling you]
Update the Current Projects and What I Am Reading sections every Monday morning.
Five minutes. This single habit is what keeps Vellum's context accurate as your thinking evolves.
A stale VELLUM.md produces stale output.
Step Five: Connect Vellum To Your Vault
Go to vellum.ai and create your account.
Connect Vellum to your Obsidian vault folder on your local machine.
Test the connection immediately with this prompt:
Read my VELLUM.md file and tell me in one paragraph what you understand about this vault, who I am, and what your role is inside this system.
If the response is specific and accurate your connection is working.
If it is vague your VELLUM.md needs more detail. Go back and be more specific. The quality of Vellum's output is directly proportional to the quality of the context you give it in this file.
Step Six: Build The Four Core Workflows
Save each of these as a markdown file inside your 04-VELLUM/workflows/ folder. Call them by name whenever you need them.
Workflow One: Process Inbox
Save as: 04-VELLUM/workflows/process-inbox.md
Trigger phrases: "process my inbox" / "clear the inbox" / "morning processing"
Prompt to copy:
"Read every note in my 00-INBOX folder from the last 24 hours. For each note: determine which 01-CAPTURES subfolder it belongs in, sharpen the raw capture into one specific punchy sentence, move it to the correct subfolder. After processing all notes tell me: total notes processed and where each went, any patterns you noticed across today's captures, and one connection worth exploring from today's batch. A sharpened note should be specific enough that a stranger understands exactly what was observed without any additional context. If it still needs explanation it is not sharp enough."
Workflow Two: The Daily Brief
Save as: 04-VELLUM/workflows/daily-brief.md
Set this to run automatically every morning at 6am via N8N.
Prompt to copy:
"Read everything in my 00-INBOX from the last 24 hours and everything in 01-CAPTURES from the last 7 days. Then do three things. CONNECTIONS: find the 3 most interesting connections between recent captures and older notes I probably have not noticed. Be specific. Quote the relevant passages from my actual notes. PATTERN: identify one pattern across everything I have been reading this week. What is my brain clearly working on even if I have not stated it explicitly? QUESTION: give me one question worth sitting with today based on the pattern you identified. Not a task. A question. Save this as a markdown file in my 00-INBOX folder named brief-{{date}}.md."
Read this brief before you open any app. Every morning without exception.
Workflow Three: Weekly Connections
Save as: 04-VELLUM/workflows/weekly-connections.md
Trigger phrases: "run weekly connections" / "find this week's connections"
Run this every Sunday.
Prompt to copy:
"Read all notes added to my 01-CAPTURES folder in the last 7 days. Search for connections across all subfolders simultaneously. A strong connection is one of these four types.
TYPE A: the same underlying principle appearing in two completely different domains. TYPE B: a contradiction between two notes that creates interesting tension.
TYPE C: a pattern connecting three or more notes into one unnamed insight.
TYPE D: a question from one note that another note accidentally answers. For each strong connection: name the connection type, write a one sentence bridge between the ideas, and create a new note in my 02-CONNECTIONS folder linking the source notes. Only surface connections that would genuinely surprise me. Minimum three connections. Maximum five. Quality over quantity."
Workflow Four: Deep Research Session
Save as: 04-VELLUM/workflows/deep-research.md
Trigger phrases: "deep research on [topic]" / "what do I know about [topic]"
Run this whenever you are going deep on a specific topic or decision.
Prompt to copy:
"Read everything in my vault related to [topic]. Tell me four things. First: what do I already believe about this based on my actual notes, not generically. Second: what have I saved that contradicts that belief — show me both sides from my own notes. Third: what perspective is clearly missing from my research based on what I am and am not reading. Fourth: what is the single most important question I have not asked yet about this topic. Be direct. Challenge me. Do not summarize what I already know."
## Step Seven: The Daily Ritual
This is how you run the system every morning. Total time: fifteen minutes.
Open Vellum. Connect to your vault.
## Minutes one to five — capture:
Before you open any app spend five minutes sending raw captures to your Telegram bot. Things you noticed yesterday. A pattern you observed. A question that came up. A number you saw. Raw. Unpolished. Just get it in.
Minutes six to ten — process:
Run the Process Inbox workflow.
Read the report. Note what got filed and what patterns Vellum noticed across today's captures.
## Minutes eleven to fifteen — brief:
Read the daily brief that Vellum generated at 6am.
This is the moment the system earns its place. You are reading a synthesis of everything you have been consuming across the past week, with the connections you missed surfaced automatically, before you have opened a single social media platform.
The rest of the day is execution not ideation.
## Step Eight: The Weekly Connection Session
Every Sunday run this full session.
Run the Weekly Connections workflow on all captures from the last 7 days.
Let Vellum read the full week of captures across all subfolders simultaneously. The connections it surfaces from a full week of inputs will be stronger than anything the daily session finds.
Review the connection notes it creates in 02-CONNECTIONS.
Pick the two strongest.
Those are your two best ideas for the week. Everything else is secondary.
## Step Nine: Close The Loop
This is the step that makes the system compound over time.
Every time a thesis plays out, a pattern you identified proves correct, or a connection leads somewhere significant — open the relevant note and add what happened.
Vellum reads these updates.
Over time it learns not just what you think but what kinds of thinking have been right for you specifically.
Once a month run this prompt:
"Read everything I have added to my vault in the last 30 days. Tell me: what beliefs am I forming that I have not stated explicitly yet, what pattern keeps appearing across different domains in my notes, what is the single highest leverage thing I could be thinking about right now based on everything in this vault, and what am I clearly not reading that the gaps in my notes suggest I should be. Only give me insights specific to my actual notes. No generic advice."
## What This System Produces
At 30 days the vault feels like a useful tool.
The daily brief occasionally surfaces something you had completely forgotten that turns out to be exactly relevant to what you are working on today.
At 90 days it starts feeling different.
Vellum begins connecting things from month one to things from month three. You ask it a question about something you are researching and it finds the note from eight weeks ago you had no memory of saving. The vault knows things about your thinking that you do not consciously remember.
At 6 months it is something else entirely.
You have a record of every belief you held and changed. Every pattern that appeared in your thinking before you consciously recognized it as an obsession. Every connection that turned into an insight that turned into a decision that turned into an outcome.
The intelligence you have after 6 months of this is not the same intelligence you started with.
It has been compounding while you were busy living your life.
Most people are starting from zero every single day.
This system makes sure you never do.

# 如何使用 Obsidian + Vellum 构建一个全天候思考的“第二大脑”
**作者**: CyrilXBT
**日期**: 2026-05-27T02:28:54.000Z
**来源**: [https://x.com/cyrilXBT/status/2059461814333673705](https://x.com/cyrilXBT/status/2059461814333673705)
---
一位幕僚长会阅读你读过的所有内容，记住你忘记的一切，并每天早上向你简报重要事项。
以下是如何以零成本构建这样一个系统的方法。
开始前的准备工作
Obsidian — 在 obsidian.md 下载。个人使用免费。你的笔记以纯 Markdown 格式存储在本地机器上。
Vellum — 在 vellum.ai 创建你的账户。积分预付，按成本价使用，零加价。轻度日常使用每月仅需几美元。
Readwise — readwise.io。将你在文章、Kindle、Twitter 书签和 Pocket 中做的所有高亮汇总到一个地方。拥有原生的 Obsidian 集成功能，可以自动路由所有内容。
N8N — n8n.io。开源自动化工具。运行连接你的捕获源与知识库的工作流。可以自行托管或使用他们的云版本。
现在你已经拥有所需的一切，请完成接下来的步骤。
步骤一：构建知识库架构
打开 Obsidian。创建一个新的知识库。将其命名为 CHIEF。
现在创建这个确切的文件夹结构：
CHIEF/
├── 00-INBOX/
├── 01-CAPTURES/
│ ├── articles/
│ ├── ideas/
│ ├── patterns/
│ ├── questions/
│ └── numbers/
├── 02-CONNECTIONS/
├── 03-PROJECTS/
└── 04-VELLUM/
├── VELLUM.md
└── workflows/
这个结构并非随意设计。每个文件夹都只有一个明确的职责。
00-INBOX 是所有内容最初落地的地方。未经处理。原始状态。捕获时的目标是速度而非结构。你在捕获时从不手动整理内容。
01-CAPTURES 按笔记类型而非主题进行组织。这是整个系统最重要的架构决策。当你按主题组织时，关于加密货币模式的笔记和关于心理学原理的笔记永远不会相遇。当你按类型组织时，它们都会落入 patterns 文件夹，Vellum 会自动发现它们之间的联系。
02-CONNECTIONS 是存放综合见解的地方。这些不是原始捕获。它们是从两个或更多笔记之间的关系中产生的新想法。这是你最佳思考的来源。
03-PROJECTS 用于正在进行的工作。每个项目一个子文件夹。与你当前正在研究或构建相关的一切都存放在这里。
04-VELLUM 是智能层的工作目录。这是 Vellum 读取指令和存储其工作文件的地方。
步骤二：安装核心插件
在 Obsidian 中，前往 设置 → 社区插件 → 关闭安全模式 → 浏览。
安装这三个插件：
Templater — 运行具有真实逻辑的动态模板。你将用它来处理从 N8N 到达的捕获时的自动笔记格式化。
Dataview — 像数据库一样查询你的知识库。通过标签、日期或你定义的任何属性来展示笔记。对于每周的连接会议至关重要。
Obsidian Git — 每小时自动将你的整个知识库备份到私有 GitHub 仓库。设置一次。之后就再也不用管了。
步骤三：设置自动捕获
捕获层只有一个工作：收集一切，不需要你做任何额外操作。
捕获中的每一个摩擦点都是你未来知识库中的缺口。设置一次。以后再也不用管它。
文章和高亮：
在 readwise.io 安装 Readwise。
添加浏览器扩展。阅读每篇文章时，高亮重要的句子。Readwise 会自动存储它们。你不需要做其他事。不需要打标签。不需要总结。高亮后继续即可。
在 Readwise 设置中启用原生 Obsidian 同步。每一条高亮都会自动作为格式化的 Markdown 文件流入你的 01-CAPTURES/articles/ 文件夹。
来自任何地方的快速捕获：
构建一个 Telegram 机器人，接收你发送的任何消息并将其直接路由到你的 00-INBOX 文件夹。
完全复制这个 N8N 工作流：
节点 1: Telegram 触发器 → 事件: message → Chat ID: your_bot_id
节点 2: 代码节点 → 文件名: 00-INBOX/{{date}}-capture.md → 内容:
## 快速捕获
{{message}} 日期: {{date}} 来源: Telegram
节点 3: 写入文件 → 路径: /your-vault/00-INBOX/ → 操作: create
构建需要 30 分钟。之后将永远运行。
凌晨 2 点突然想到的点子。你想追踪的钱包。你在市场中注意到的模式。发给机器人。它会自动进入你的知识库。
语音笔记：
任何长于快速思考的内容都录为语音备忘录。通过 Whisper 运行以获得清晰的转录稿。将转录稿粘贴到你的 Telegram 机器人中。它会自动进入 INBOX。
步骤四：编写 VELLUM.md 文件
这是整个系统中最重要的文件。
没有它，Vellum 在每次会话开始时对你是谁、你在做什么或你想要什么都一无所知。有了它，Vellum 就变成了一位阅读了你数月笔记的合作伙伴。
在 04-VELLUM/VELLUM.md 创建这个文件。完全复制此模板：
## CHIEF SYSTEM — VELLUM.md
身份
我的名字是 [你的名字]。我是 [你做什么 —— 具体一点]。我现在的重点是：[你正试图提升的一件事]。我在 2026 年的目标是：[你正在努力实现的 3 个具体结果]。
这个知识库
这是我的永久知识库和思考系统。每一条笔记都是决策、研究和原创思考的原材料。这里没有任何内容是装饰品。
知识库结构
- 00-INBOX: 未经处理的捕获 —— 总是首先检查这里
- 01-CAPTURES/articles: 处理过高亮和文章笔记
- 01-CAPTURES/ideas: 我自己的思考和观察
- 01-CAPTURES/patterns: 出现在不同领域的同一原则
- 01-CAPTURES/questions: 我真正不知道答案的事情
- 01-CAPTURES/numbers: 附带具体数字的真实数据点
- 02-CONNECTIONS: 从两个或更多捕获笔记中综合出的见解
- 03-PROJECTS: 正在研究和工作的文件夹
- 04-VELLUM: 你的工作目录
当前项目
进行中：[你现在正在构建或研究的内容] 卡在：[你在哪些方面最需要思考帮助] 下一个里程碑：[当前冲刺完成的样子]
我对你有什么要求
- 呈现我在笔记中未曾发现的联系
- 在我有意识地识别出来之前，找出我正在阅读的内容中的模式
- 当我问应关注什么时，基于知识库的上下文而非泛泛地回答
- 当我目前的信念与之前保存的内容相矛盾时，标记出来
- 在同意我的假设之前，先挑战它们
## 我现在正在阅读和思考的内容
[每周一更新 —— 当前的执念、活跃的问题、困扰你的事情]
每周一早上更新当前项目和我正在阅读的内容部分。
五分钟。这单一的习惯确保了随着你思考的演变，Vellum 的上下文保持准确。
过时的 VELLUM.md 会产生过时的输出。
步骤五：将 Vellum 连接到你的知识库
前往 vellum.ai 并创建你的账户。
将 Vellum 连接到你本地机器上的 Obsidian 知识库文件夹。
立即使用此提示测试连接：
阅读我的 VELLUM.md 文件，用一段话告诉我你对这个知识库、我是谁以及你在这个系统中的角色有什么理解。
如果回答具体且准确，你的连接就正常了。
如果回答模糊，你的 VELLUM.md 需要更多细节。回去写得再具体一点。Vellum 的输出质量与你在该文件中提供的上下文质量成正比。
步骤六：构建四个核心工作流
将每个工作流作为 Markdown 文件保存在你的 04-VELLUM/workflows/ 文件夹中。在需要时按名称调用它们。
工作流一：处理收件箱
保存为：04-VELLUM/workflows/process-inbox.md
触发短语："process my inbox" / "clear the inbox" / "morning processing"
复制提示词：
"阅读我 00-INBOX 文件夹中过去 24 小时的每一条笔记。对于每一条笔记：确定它属于哪个 01-CAPTURES 子文件夹，将原始捕获打磨成一个具体有力的句子，并将其移动到正确的子文件夹。处理完所有笔记后告诉我：处理的笔记总数以及各自的去向，你在今天的捕获中注意到的任何模式，以及今天这一批中值得探索的一个联系。打磨后的笔记应该足够具体，让陌生人无需任何额外上下文就能准确理解观察到了什么。如果还需要解释，那就说明打磨得还不够。"
工作流二：每日简报
保存为：04-VELLUM/workflows/daily-brief.md
设置此工作流通过 N8N 在每天早上 6 点自动运行。
复制提示词：
"阅读我 00-INBOX 中过去 24 小时的所有内容，以及 01-CAPTURES 中过去 7 天的所有内容。然后做三件事。联系：在最近的捕获和较旧的笔记之间找出我可能没注意到的 3 个最有趣的联系。要具体。引用我实际笔记中的相关段落。模式：在我这周阅读的所有内容中识别一个模式。我的大脑显然在处理什么，即使我没有明确说出来？问题：根据你识别出的模式，给我一个今天值得思考的问题。不是一个任务。一个问题。将其保存为 Markdown 文件放入我的 00-INBOX 文件夹，命名为 brief-{{date}}.md。"
在你打开任何应用之前阅读这份简报。每个早上，无一例外。
工作流三：每周连接
保存为：04-VELLUM/workflows/weekly-connections.md
触发短语："run weekly connections" / "find this week's connections"
每周日运行此工作流。
复制提示词：
"阅读过去 7 天添加到我的 01-CAPTURES 文件夹的所有笔记。同时搜索所有子文件夹之间的联系。一个强有力的联系是这四种类型之一。
A 型：相同的基本原则出现在两个完全不同的领域。 B 型：两条笔记之间的矛盾产生了有趣的张力。
C 型：一个模式将三个或更多笔记连接成一个未被命名的见解。 D 型：一条笔记中的问题被另一条笔记意外回答了。对于每个强有力的联系：命名联系类型，在想法之间写一句话桥梁，并在我的 02-CONNECTIONS 文件夹中创建一个链接源笔记的新笔记。只呈现真正让我感到意外的联系。最少三个。最多五个。质量重于数量。"
工作流四：深度研究会议
保存为：04-VELLUM/workflows/deep-research.md
触发短语："deep research on [topic]" / "what do I know about [topic]"
当你深入研究某个特定主题或决策时运行此工作流。
复制提示词：
"阅读我知识库中与 [主题] 相关的所有内容。告诉我四件事。第一：基于我的实际笔记（而非泛泛而谈），我对此已经有什么看法？第二：我保存了哪些与该信念相矛盾的内容 —— 从我自己的笔记中向我展示双方观点。第三：根据我正在阅读和未阅读的内容，我的研究中显然缺少什么视角？第四：关于这个主题，我尚未提出的单一最重要的问题是什么？要直接。挑战我。不要总结我已经知道的内容。"
## 步骤七：每日仪式
这就是你每天早上运行系统的方式。总时间：十五分钟。
打开 Vellum。连接到你的知识库。
## 第 1 到 5 分钟 —— 捕获：
在你打开任何应用之前，花五分钟向你的 Telegram 机器人发送原始捕获。你昨天注意到的事情。你观察到的模式。出现的问题。你看到的数字。原始的。未打磨的。先把它弄进来就行。
## 第 6 到 10 分钟 —— 处理：
运行 Process Inbox 工作流。
阅读报告。注意归档的内容以及 Vellum 在今天的捕获中注意到的模式。
## 第 11 到 15 分钟 —— 简报：
阅读 Vellum 在早上 6 点生成的每日简报。
这就是系统证明其价值的时刻。在你打开任何一个社交平台之前，你正在阅读过去一周消费内容的综合报告，那些你错过的联系被自动呈现出来。
一天的剩余时间是执行而非构思。
## 步骤八：每周连接会议
每周日运行这个完整的会议。
对过去 7 天的所有捕获运行 Weekly Connections 工作流。
让 Vellum 同时阅读一周内所有子文件夹的捕获。从整整一周的输入中挖掘出的联系，会比每日会议发现的任何东西都更有力。
审查它在 02-CONNECTIONS 中创建的连接笔记。
挑选出两个最有力的。
这就是你这周最好的两个想法。其他一切都是次要的。
## 步骤九：闭环
这是使系统随时间复利的一步。
每当一个论题得到验证，你识别出的一个模式证明是正确的，或者一个联系导向了重要的结果 —— 打开相关的笔记并添加发生的事情。
Vellum 会阅读这些更新。
随着时间的推移，它不仅会学到你想什么，还会学到哪种思考对你个人来说是正确的。
每个月运行一次这个提示词：
"阅读我过去 30 天添加到知识库的所有内容。告诉我：我正在形成哪些尚未明确说明的信念，什么模式在我的笔记中的不同领域反复出现，基于这个知识库中的所有内容，我现在能思考的单一最高杠杆的事情是什么，以及根据我笔记中的空白，我显然没有在阅读什么应该阅读的内容。只给我根据我的实际笔记得出的具体见解。不要通用建议。"
## 这个系统带来什么
在 30 天时，知识库感觉像是一个有用的工具。
每日简报偶尔会呈现一些你完全忘记的事情，而这些事情恰好与你今天正在做的事情相关。
在 90 天时，它开始感觉不同了。
Vellum 开始将第一个月的事情与第三个月的事情联系起来。你问一个关于你正在研究的问题，它找到了八周前的一篇笔记，你根本不记得保存过它。知识库知道一些你潜意识里不记得的关于你思考的事情。
在 6 个月时，它完全变成了另一种东西。
你拥有对自己持有和改变过的每一个信念的记录。每一个在你有意识地意识到它是执念之前就出现在你的思考中的模式。每一个变成见解、变成决策、变成结果的联系。
你在 6 个月后拥有的智力与你开始时的智力不同。
当你忙着过生活的时候，它一直在复利。
大多数人是每天从零开始。
这个系统确保你永远不会这样。
很喜欢 vellum.ai 正在做的事情。去看看吧。
