It’s very encouraging to see serious attempts at addressing continuity between agents’ outputs. Right now, everyone seems to be figuring out their own way of maintaining consistency across sessions without endlessly over-contextualizing each new one. This feels like an important layer of the emerging agent stack, and I think this Show HN will be useful to a lot of people working through exactly that problem.
What a surprisingly lovely comment section. I love the curiosity and positivity. Hope you have a great day.
our approach was to build a data lake that sucks company data into clickhouse and staple that to a knowledge store. this way the brain has a stream of live facts and builds knowledge around it. we gave up on trying to make the knowledge store human-readable -- i totally think there could be something there, but for now we just care about enhancing the agent you're using. it makes my claude code very good at debugging and gives everyone a way to vibecode dashboards and small internal tools with real data.
i also run a personal instance for my wife and I that sucks in monarch money and gmail. mostly use it to chat through big money moves.
I have a folder called reports, plans, and code-reviews in each repo. I put my md files for agents there, and voila they're in the cloud along with my source code in git. I just talk to my local agent about these files and it finds things using grep and whatever. Done. No mcp or special server needed.
I've been pitched products like ozbrain before, but I've failed to see the need over what I already have. Seems like more complication for no gain to me.

That sounds like a solid setup for engineering. OzBrain is meant for not just the eng docs, but also the business and product docs. Also my personal stuff, ie my workout log is there, health analysis, etc. And I share our family docs with my wife, so all the kids stuff and our stuff is synced across devices. I think anybody that works on a computer, regardless of industry is going to be a heavy agent user in the future, and I'm building for all of them. Super smart people already have homegrown solutions that work for them.
I'm Johnny.Decimal. [0] I use an Obsidian vault and my system. "It's at 23.16", I tell Claude. From that it can instantly find my notes and files. No extra software needed. Just some basic structure. Claude loves it. [1] Oh yeah, and to keep conversation context contained so you can /resume and so on, just $ cd 23.16 $ claude [0]: https://johnnydecimal.com [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZAT0Ft--wE
Cool. Johnny Decimal sounds badass too, like maybe if an agent loses some of my work it will hunt it down and kill beat it up ;)
Are you seeing engineers use it or more every day people getting the hang of it to?
