Obsidian + Claude Code: The Second Brain Setup That Actually Works — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00In this video, I'm going to show exactly
- 0:01how to build your second brain using
- 0:03Claude Code and the power of Obsidian.
- 0:05And specifically for my use case, I use
- 0:07Obsidian here to manage different
- 0:08projects. And furthermore, I was able to
- 0:10use Claude Code here as like a AI
- 0:12assistant here to manage my notes. Right
- 0:14here, you can see I have a bunch of
- 0:15Obsidian CLI skills, which will
- 0:16basically help us to create better
- 0:18Obsidian notes. And right here, you can
- 0:19see one of the skills that I created
- 0:21called the onboarding projects, which
- 0:23can help me to take any data source that
- 0:24I have like Gmails and local files, have
- 0:26Claude Code here to organize, summarize
- 0:28those informations, and store that
- 0:30inside of my Obsidians using the
- 0:32Obsidian skills. I'm going to show you
- 0:33in later on this video. And pretty much,
- 0:35you can see that we can use Claude Code
- 0:36here with the power of Obsidian to
- 0:38basically help us to answer any
- 0:39questions, perform any actions on our
- 0:41notes. So, with that being said, that's
- 0:43what we're going to cover in this video.
- 0:44If you're interested, let's get into
- 0:45this. Now, before we continue, I
- 0:47recently launched our school community
- 0:48where I help you to master AI agents,
- 0:50automations, and so much more. And
- 0:52that's all coming from someone who used
- 0:54to work as a senior AI software engineer
- 0:56at companies like Amazon and Microsoft.
- 0:59And in this community, you're going to
- 1:00get over 100 plus video materials like
- 1:02templates and workflows that I
- 1:04personally built and sold over 100 plus
- 1:06times. On top of that, you're also going
- 1:07to get access to our weekly live calls.
- 1:10And just give you an idea, this week
- 1:11we're actually running a Claude Code
- 1:12masterclass where we're going to dive
- 1:14into how to improve Claude Code's
- 1:16accuracy. We're going to use it to
- 1:17building applications. Plus, you're also
- 1:19going to get full community supports
- 1:20where you're going to get a chance to
- 1:21ask questions and get direct answers
- 1:23back. So, if you're ready to level up,
- 1:25make sure to jump right in, and I'll see
- 1:26you in the community. Now, because
- 1:28Obsidian here is not free, the free
- 1:30version here doesn't allow you to sync
- 1:31notes or do the version control. And
- 1:33that's why the first step we're going to
- 1:34do here is basically have Obsidian here
- 1:36to connect it with our GitHub by first
- 1:37creating a repository. And any changes
- 1:39that we're making in our Obsidian notes,
- 1:41we're going to push that onto our GitHub
- 1:42repository. This way, we're going to
- 1:43have a version control and also
- 1:45completely free for cloud storage. So,
- 1:47in this case, let's take a look at how
- 1:48we can do this first. All right, so to
- 1:49get started, first thing first, we're
- 1:50going to do here is make sure to create
- 1:51our GitHub accounts. And simply, all we
- 1:53have to do here is just click on new
- 1:55right here to create a new repository.
- 1:57And this will basically going to be a
- 1:58folder we're going to dump all the data
- 1:59here inside of our repository in GitHub
- 2:02so that we have the right version
- 2:03control, and we can also be able to
- 2:04change the visibility. So, here I'm
- 2:06going to change that to be private
- 2:08because I don't want anyone else here to
- 2:09see the brain because you only want to
- 2:11use this for your cloud storage and
- 2:12version control. So, in this case, I'm
- 2:14going to give it a name for the
- 2:15repository, and I'm just going to call
- 2:16it the Eric Tech Brain. And simply, once
- 2:18that's done, I will just click on create
- 2:20new repository. And now, you can see we
- 2:21have a repository created inside of our
- 2:23GitHub. So, once we have a repository
- 2:25now, what we have to do here is we want
- 2:27to make sure to clone this inside of our
- 2:28local machine so we can move to add any
- 2:30local files here onto our GitHub for
- 2:32cloud storage and version control. And
- 2:34to do so, if you're really new to
- 2:35terminal and you're not really a
- 2:36developer, I highly recommend you just
- 2:38to install GitHub Desktop where you can
- 2:40be able to manage the entire version
- 2:41control and the cloud storage in a
- 2:43desktop graphical user interface rather
- 2:45than just using the terminal. So, for
- 2:46demonstration, I'm just going to
- 2:47download this onto my local machine.
- 2:49Now, once you have your GitHub Desktop
- 2:50app downloaded on your local machine,
- 2:52this is what it looks like. So, all we
- 2:54have to do here is just make sure to
- 2:55select the repository that I just
- 2:56created. For example, mine is called the
- 2:58Eric Tech Brain. So, there's one called
- 3:00Eric Tech Brain, and we can see that
- 3:02currently it is private. So, I'm just
- 3:03going to choose that and be able to
- 3:04clone this onto our local machine. So,
- 3:06I'm just going to click on clone, and
- 3:08it's telling you exactly where you can
- 3:09clone this. So, you can see that the
- 3:10local file path here is actually inside
- 3:12of documents. But if I want to change
- 3:14that, for example, I want to change that
- 3:15to be in my desktop, I can be able to
- 3:17change that and click on select. And
- 3:19then here, all I have to do here is just
- 3:20click on clone, and it's going to clone
- 3:21the repository here on our desktop
- 3:23folder in our local machine. So, now you
- 3:25can see we have the repository cloned
- 3:27inside of our desktop folder. The next
- 3:29thing we're going to do here is make
- 3:30sure to have Obsidian installed on our
- 3:32local machine as well. So, now if I were
- 3:33to head over to the Obsidian download
- 3:35page, simply all I have to do here is
- 3:36click on download, and it's going to
- 3:37download this app on our local machine.
- 3:39So, I'm going to download this for my
- 3:40Mac version. All right, so now once I
- 3:42have downloaded this on my Mac OS, the
- 3:43next thing we're going to do here is
- 3:44make sure to open folder as vault. So,
- 3:47I'm going to click on open. And then
- 3:48here, I'm going to click on desktop.
- 3:49Then we're going to click on the
- 3:50repository that we just cloned and click
- 3:52on open. And then here, you can see this
- 3:53is the notebook that we have for our
- 3:55Eric Tech Brain. So, now once we have
- 3:56this open, here you can see on the
- 3:58right, this is the entire Eric Tech
- 3:59folders. that we write on the Obsidian
- 4:01is going to be reflected inside of this
- 4:04folder. So, for example, if I were to
- 4:05create a new note, for example, here you
- 4:07can see this is the note. And right here
- 4:08on the right, you can see we have
- 4:09untitled.md file. So, now if I were to
- 4:12type in, for example, Eric Tech, and
- 4:14that's going to be the file name, you
- 4:15can see that has changed reflected right
- 4:17away. And if I were to create a folder
- 4:18in Obsidian, it's going to do the same
- 4:20thing here as well. So, next we're going
- 4:21to show you here is basically commit the
- 4:22changes onto our GitHub so that we have
- 4:24a cloud backup. So, right here, you can
- 4:26see if I were to open the GitHub Desktop
- 4:28app, currently on the left, you can see
- 4:29we have six changes on the files. And
- 4:32simply, I'm just going to give the
- 4:33message summary on exactly what are the
- 4:35changes that we have just made. I'm just
- 4:36going to say this is the initial
- 4:37summary. You can see this is the initial
- 4:39commit. And commit this, then click on
- 4:41push here to basically push that changes
- 4:43onto the remote, which is our GitHub
- 4:45repository. So, now if I were to click
- 4:46on the history here, you can see this is
- 4:48the commit that we just committed, and
- 4:50now has that change. So, if I want to
- 4:51revert it back, you can do so. So, now
- 4:53if I were to head over to the GitHub
- 4:54repository browser, here you can see
- 4:55this is the Eric Tech Brain. And right
- 4:57here, you can see this is my first
- 4:58initial commit, which basically means
- 5:00that we have successfully saved the
- 5:01changes onto our GitHub repository here.
- 5:04Now, obviously, making changes and
- 5:05manually have to commit this is going to
- 5:07be really painful. And you might be
- 5:08asking, "Well, is there any ways that we
- 5:09can be able to automatically commit this
- 5:11onto our GitHub repository?" And the
- 5:13answer here is yes. So, now if I were to
- 5:14head over to the Obsidian here, all we
- 5:16have to do here is just click on the
- 5:17gear icon. And basically, if I were to
- 5:19click on the community plugins and click
- 5:21on the turn on community plugins right
- 5:23here, now we can be able to browse a
- 5:25community plugins. And there's actually
- 5:26a plugin here that can actually help us
- 5:28to automatically commit these changes
- 5:29that we have onto our GitHub repository.
- 5:32So, simply all I have to do here is just
- 5:33click on browse. And then the plugin
- 5:34here is called Git. So, right here, you
- 5:36can see this is the plugin which
- 5:37integrates the Git version here with
- 5:38automatically backup and other advanced
- 5:40features. So, if I were to click on
- 5:42this, right here, you can see you can be
- 5:43able to learn more about this from this
- 5:44open source repository. But simply, if
- 5:46you want to install this, all you have
- 5:47to do is just click on install right
- 5:49here. So, right here, you can see the
- 5:50repository here is fully installed. And
- 5:52then simply, click on enable. Then we're
- 5:53going to click on options. And right
- 5:55here, you can see there's a feature
- 5:56called auto commit and sync after
- 5:58stopping file edits, which basically
- 6:00means that after we stop editing the
- 6:01files in the Obsidian, it will basically
- 6:04start to commit the changes that we have
- 6:06onto GitHub. So, simply if we were to
- 6:08enable this feature, and all we have to
- 6:09do here is set an interval on how often
- 6:12should it be able to sync the changes,
- 6:13right? It could be like every minute,
- 6:15right? After we stop changing or after
- 6:17we stop editing the files in Obsidian,
- 6:19it's going to automatically do that with
- 6:21a set interval. So, for example, it
- 6:22could be like 1 minute. So, that's what
- 6:24I'm going to set right here. And then
- 6:25furthermore, if you scroll down, there's
- 6:26also a feature called pull on startup,
- 6:28which basically automatically pull the
- 6:30latest changes from Obsidian when it
- 6:32starts. So, in this case, I'm just going
- 6:33to enable this. So, for example, maybe
- 6:35you're making changes from device one,
- 6:37and then you want to open your device
- 6:38two here to basically sync the changes.
- 6:40This will basically allow you to have
- 6:42that option. So, make sure to pull on
- 6:43startup. Okay, so now if I were to test
- 6:45the changes here, if I were to close
- 6:46this, and let's say if I were to make
- 6:48some changes, for example, right? So, in
- 6:49this case, I'm going to say example,
- 6:51right? And then be able to give some
- 6:53like words here. And then you can see
- 6:54here that after 1 minute, it has
- 6:56committed six files here automatically
- 6:58onto our GitHub page. So, now if I were
- 7:00to head over to the version control, you
- 7:01can see that we have all backups as well
- 7:03as committed automatically through the
- 7:06Obsidian. And if I were to head over to
- 7:08the repository and just refresh now, you
- 7:10can see we have the example.md file that
- 7:11we just created. And right here, you can
- 7:13see this is the change that we have. So,
- 7:14now let's say if I were to edit
- 7:16something, for example, say hello, and
- 7:18click on commit, and click on
- 7:21uh changes, right? So, now you can see
- 7:22we have some additional changes added
- 7:23onto this MD file. So, now you can see
- 7:25if I were to restart the Obsidian, it
- 7:27has automatically pulled the changes.
- 7:29Now, you can see that we have hello here
- 7:30inside of our notebook. So, now once we
- 7:32have our Obsidian notebook set up, the
- 7:34next thing we're going to take a look at
- 7:34is how we can be able to connect it with
- 7:36our large language model like Claude
- 7:37Code. And to make this process easier,
- 7:39we're going to use the Obsidian skill,
- 7:41which basically teach our AI agent here
- 7:42to use all the capabilities that
- 7:44Obsidian has like the markdown, base,
- 7:46JSON, canvas, all through the Obsidian
- 7:49CLI. And of course, if you want to have
- 7:50your CLI for Obsidian set up, make sure
- 7:52to head over to your settings for the
- 7:54Obsidian, and just click on the general.
- 7:56And then here, inside of general,
- 7:57there's the advanced, and we have the
- 7:59command line interface. So, make sure to
- 8:00toggle this on. It will basically allow
- 8:02you to interact Obsidian with CLI. Now,
- 8:04once we have the CLI enabled, the next
- 8:06thing we're going to take a look at is
- 8:07how we can be able to set up the
- 8:08Obsidian skills. So, right here, you can
- 8:09see simply if we want to install this,
- 8:11we're just going to copy the commands
- 8:12right here to install this either
- 8:14through the marketplace or the MPX
- 8:16skills. So, now once you have this
- 8:17installed, the next thing we're going to
- 8:18take a look at is how we can be able to
- 8:19use that for a practical use case. So,
- 8:22what I can do here is I can be able to
- 8:23onboard those data onto Claude Code, and
- 8:25Claude Code here is going to trigger the
- 8:26Obsidian skills that we just installed,
- 8:28and it's going to help us to organize
- 8:29and summarize everything into one single
- 8:32location. So, in this case, let me show
- 8:33you exactly how I would do that. All
- 8:35right, so to do so here, you can see I
- 8:36basically created a skill called onboard
- 8:38projects. And essentially, what it does
- 8:39here is that it will collect data from
- 8:41my external Gmail, right? Like basically
- 8:43my all my emails from a particular
- 8:45projects. And also for the internal
- 8:47files, right? Let's say if I have bunch
- 8:49of project contexts on my local drive, I
- 8:51can also be able to upload that here for
- 8:53this particular skill or any text that I
- 8:55want to paste. It will basically use the
- 8:56existing Obsidian skills, right? Like
- 8:58the markdown, the base, the CLI here to
- 9:01create everything, okay?
- 9:02And this is the entire skill structures.
- 9:04It will basically uses some of the
- 9:05scripts that I created here to like, for
- 9:07example, getting a email label, right?
- 9:09Getting the messages, getting the
- 9:11threads from Gmail, and then be able to
- 9:13fetch those things and download the
- 9:14attachments using this part of the
- 9:16skills here. And it will basically try
- 9:18to output it as the vault here. So, you
- 9:20can see it's going to output as a
- 9:21project folder. And then here, inside of
- 9:23this projects folder here, we have a
- 9:25projects.base, which is basically a
- 9:28table where we keep track of all the
- 9:29projects that we have. And then we also
- 9:31have the project name. So, that's
- 9:33basically whatever project like we have
- 9:35like ABC projects. We're going to have
- 9:37the overview, exactly okay, what is this
- 9:39project about? And then we also have the
- 9:41conversation log like, okay, what is the
- 9:43conversation summary in a chronological
- 9:45order for all the conversation that we
- 9:46have going on with this project, right?
- 9:48So, that we know exactly what's
- 9:50happening. And we also have the links on
- 9:52exactly okay, what are some external
- 9:53links. And then we also, most
- 9:54importantly, we have the documentations.
- 9:56So, there's some documents that could be
- 9:57like static file like NDA or agreements
- 10:00or contracts that we need to cap inside
- 10:02of the agreements that cannot be
- 10:03summarized, right? So, some files here
- 10:05shouldn't be summarized. Some of
- 10:06information here should be summarized
- 10:08and condensed it down into the
- 10:09conversation log. So, that this way it's
- 10:11much more easier for me to juggle
- 10:12multiple projects at the same time. So,
- 10:14you can see here that this is the entire
- 10:16five that workflow on exactly how the
- 10:18skill does. Right here you can see we
- 10:19first try to create a project. So, if
- 10:21the project exists already, we might
- 10:23just want to update or import more data
- 10:25on this project and that's it. If it's a
- 10:27new project, we're just going to create
- 10:28a new project here and then we also have
- 10:30collecting sources here. So, let's say
- 10:32we're going to collect like Gmail,
- 10:33internal, and also the paste text or
- 10:36screenshots. We're also going to collect
- 10:37that as well. And it's going to process
- 10:39and see if there if it's existing
- 10:40projects, we're going to see if there's
- 10:41any duplicates. And also if it's going
- 10:43to be new projects, we're going to
- 10:45filter out if it's like static file,
- 10:47conversations, references, key details,
- 10:49we're going to put them into the right
- 10:51place. Then furthermore, it's going to
- 10:52auto extract the profile. So, extract
- 10:54like the wiki links, the industry, and
- 10:56be able to update the overview.md file.
- 10:58And by the end of it, it's also going to
- 11:00generate summary on exactly what are the
- 11:01key events for this project, what is the
- 11:03timeline, and also what is the import
- 11:05stats. So, then you can see I basically
- 11:06instructed to create that skill and now
- 11:08we can be able to use it to onboard
- 11:09projects much more faster onto Obsidian.
- 11:12So, now if I were to restart my
- 11:13Clockwise session, I should now be able
- 11:15to use this skill called onboard
- 11:16projects. And now if I were to simply
- 11:18trigger this, it should prompt me
- 11:20exactly what should we call this
- 11:21project. So, right here you can see it's
- 11:22going to check the current state of the
- 11:24current project folder. And then there's
- 11:26no project exists, what's the name of
- 11:28the project you would like to set up.
- 11:29So, for example, I'm just going to call
- 11:30like map B, right? For example, like it
- 11:32doesn't matter which name you're you're
- 11:34using. You can see it's going to just
- 11:35create the project structures called map
- 11:37B. And here you can see it's going to
- 11:39create the project dashboard, creating
- 11:41the conversation log, and then it also
- 11:43has create the project base, which is
- 11:45how we're going to create the project
- 11:47status for all the projects that we
- 11:48have, right? So far you can see we have
- 11:50set up the these things, right? The
- 11:52overview, the conversation log, links,
- 11:53documents, and also the projects.base,
- 11:56which is the dashboard. And now what we
- 11:57need to do here is we need to be able to
- 11:59input the data source, right? Maybe you
- 12:01have like external like Gmail label
- 12:04where this label here contains bunch of
- 12:05emails that you have with this projects.
- 12:08Or and also if you have like internal
- 12:10files, right? Like PDF, docs, contracts
- 12:12from your local drive, you can be able
- 12:13to upload here. And also if there's any
- 12:15text you want to paste, any screenshots
- 12:17that the AI here can be able to extract
- 12:18from, we can also be able to paste it
- 12:20here into this particular skill. And
- 12:22it's going to help us to analyze
- 12:23everything and aggregate everything into
- 12:25this project folder structure that we
- 12:26have here. So, in this case, I'm first
- 12:28going to upload the internal local file
- 12:30path that I have as well as the entire
- 12:31Gmail label link on exactly where it
- 12:33contains all the data source. So, in
- 12:35this case, I'm just going to enter this
- 12:36and it's going to fetch that
- 12:38automatically for us. Okay, so now you
- 12:39can see all the local files here has
- 12:41been processed and now for Gmail here,
- 12:43the scripts are not configured because
- 12:45for Gmail label here, we need the uh
- 12:47credentials. So, right here you can see
- 12:49it tells you exactly how you can get the
- 12:50credentials like Google Cloud Console,
- 12:52enable Gmail API, and also create the
- 12:54OAuth credentials right there. So,
- 12:56basically you guys are going to download
- 12:57the JSON once after you create the OAuth
- 13:00two credentials. So, if I were to open
- 13:01this, here you can see there's the
- 13:03folder called dot Gmail credentials.
- 13:05You're just going to save your
- 13:06credentials here right here, right?
- 13:07That's it. And what essentially here you
- 13:09can see it from the dot env file, it
- 13:11actually referenced this particular
- 13:13folder for the credentials and tokens
- 13:14here to be able to fetch those emails
- 13:16here using those scripts. Okay, so
- 13:17that's exactly how it works. So, now you
- 13:19can see everything is all done and here
- 13:21is what's imported. So, we have five
- 13:22files here are imported to this
- 13:24particular projects for the documents
- 13:26like the service agreements, the
- 13:27proposal, like the project plans, uh
- 13:30freelancer brief, all those kind of
- 13:31things, right? And then we also have the
- 13:33Gmail, which is all the emails that we
- 13:34have fetched from the entire thread
- 13:36conversation from December all the way
- 13:38to April, which is in chronological
- 13:40order. And also here you can see this is
- 13:42the entire key takeaways for this entire
- 13:44projects. So, as you can see at the end
- 13:46of it, this is what the project has
- 13:47created. So, this is the map B.
- 13:49Obviously, I don't want to show you the
- 13:50project from the client, but here you
- 13:52can see this is the demo project, which
- 13:54I actually create a clone version of
- 13:56this, but have Clockwise here to
- 13:58basically create kind of like the
- 13:59anonymous version of this projects. But
- 14:01you can see that this is the entire
- 14:02overview, right? You can see it has the
- 14:04properties, the overview. And then here
- 14:06you can see we also have the info card
- 14:08on exactly what's the project profile
- 14:10and also the scope. So, phase one, phase
- 14:12two, phase three, and then the tech
- 14:14stack. And we also have the conversation
- 14:16log. This is going to be the
- 14:17conversation tracking, which tracks the
- 14:20conversation from the initial like
- 14:21discovery call all the way to contract
- 14:23sign, weeks one to week three, and then
- 14:25the live demo, system goes live, uh
- 14:28scope of expansion, and also the phase
- 14:30one handoff is being summarized and
- 14:32condensed inside of the conversation
- 14:34log, which you can see here. So, you can
- 14:35see that's really powerful. And then if
- 14:37we were to scroll all the way down,
- 14:38there's also some action item. So,
- 14:39respond to clients and deliver phase two
- 14:41and phase three, which we can see here.
- 14:44Okay, so that's exactly how that works.
- 14:46Now, furthermore, we also have the
- 14:47projects.base file, which keeps track of
- 14:49all the status for all the projects that
- 14:50we have. We can also be able to use
- 14:52Clockwise here combining with the
- 14:53contacts that we have in our notebook
- 14:55and be able to craft anything, right?
- 14:57For example, be able to craft a response
- 14:58based on the projects that we have. For
- 15:00example, this demo project, uh can you
- 15:02be able to help me to tell me what's the
- 15:03current status of this project is? And
- 15:06can you tell me exactly how I should be
- 15:08able to craft a response or what are
- 15:09some action item that I need to do? And
- 15:11I can use that as like my brain or
- 15:12second brain here and using Clockwise
- 15:14here as my assistant, so that now I give
- 15:16Clockwise here the power or the
- 15:18knowledge of what's currently going on
- 15:19with my projects and have Clockwise here
- 15:21to decide exactly what I need to do. And
- 15:23you can see here that Clockwise here
- 15:25gives me the response. So, this is the
- 15:26current status of the demo projects.
- 15:28Phase one here is all completed and the
- 15:30final payment is already received. The
- 15:32phase two here is authorized. So, here
- 15:34is the key contacts and then here are
- 15:36some action items. And here you can see
- 15:38craft your response to the clients. So,
- 15:40here are found some things that we have.
- 15:41So, here you can see it says, "Do you
- 15:43want to craft a actual email response?"
- 15:45And honestly, what we can do here is
- 15:46that we can even use the power of Google
- 15:48Workspace CLI. So, connect that with
- 15:50Clockwise, so that we can have Clockwise
- 15:52here to interact with Google Workspace
- 15:54through the CLI without having me to
- 15:56open the Gmail app here to paste the
- 15:57email that I have to respond. And I
- 15:59think this is a great use case.
- 16:00Obviously, this is my use case. Your
- 16:02case could be like studying,
- 16:03researching, right? You can be able to
- 16:05combine it with the power of Notebook LM
- 16:06here inside of Clockwise, so make sure
- 16:09to check out this video right here how
- 16:10you can be able to combine the power of
- 16:11Notebook LM here within Clockwise, so
- 16:13that you can be able to automate the
- 16:14process for doing research and be able
- 16:16to organize all your knowledge base into
- 16:18one single place. All right, so pretty
- 16:19much that's it for this video. In this
- 16:21video, we went over how we can be able
- 16:22to combine the power of Clockwise and
- 16:23Obsidian here to be your second brain,
- 16:26where Clockwise here is going to
- 16:27basically help you to manage your
- 16:28memories, your notes, and also answer
- 16:30any questions, be able to save it inside
- 16:32of your GitHub here for version control.
- 16:34And also furthermore, you can also be
- 16:35able to use that to ingest any data and
- 16:38be able to query any questions that you
- 16:39have. And a lot of those things are all
- 16:41through the Obsidian skills with the
- 16:43power of Clockwise and Obsidian. So,
- 16:45I'll make sure to put every resource
- 16:47that we have mentioned in this video in
- 16:49our school community, so you can check
- 16:50it out in our link in the description.
