Knowledge Garden

A knowledge garden for book notes, article highlights, course materials, and evolving thoughts. Everything lands here first so I can find it later without spelunking inboxes.

Most of the work happens inside coding agents — summarizing, Q&A when drilling into topics, annotating, and extracting private clippings into public notes. Claude Code is the primary tool (with custom skills tailoring the workflow), Codex CLI is used alongside it, and others (Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Pi) rotate in as experiments. Obsidian provides a good enough interface for navigating folders, reading rendered Markdown, and making quick ad-hoc edits. Quartz publishes the public portion to GitHub Pages.

• Treat notes as a living log: fast summaries, links, or longer reflections when the idea deserves space.
  • projects/ — courses, job hunts, and other time-bound efforts
  • areas/ — ongoing responsibilities and domains
  • resources/ — catchall for anything not tied to a project or area
  • archive/ — inactive or outdated notes
• Write to future me.
