A crew of 10 AI agents embedded in your Obsidian vault that manage knowledge, nutrition, and mental wellness through natural conversation with Claude Code. Built by a PhD researcher for people who are drowning — not just optimizing.
What It Does
The Crew installs 10 specialized agents into your vault's .claude/ directory. Each agent has its own system prompt, tool restrictions, and model assignment. You talk to Claude Code naturally; it activates the right agent automatically.
Agent
Role
Architect
Vault setup, onboarding, folder structure
Scribe
Captures messy text into clean structured notes
Sorter
Nightly inbox triage — routes notes to correct folders
Seeker
Search and synthesis across your entire vault
Connector
Discovers hidden links between notes
Librarian
Weekly health checks, dedup, broken link repair
Transcriber
Turns recordings/transcripts into structured meeting notes
# Create a new vault directory (or use an existing one)mkdir ~/my-vault
Open Obsidian → Create New Vault → point it at ~/my-vault.
2. Clone the repo inside your vault
cd ~/my-vault
git clone https://github.com/gnekt/My-Brain-Is-Full-Crew.git
3. Run the installer
cd My-Brain-Is-Full-Crew
bash scripts/launchme.sh
The installer:
Asks 2–3 questions (language preference, which agents to enable)
Copies agents into ../.claude/agents/ (for Claude Code CLI)
Copies skills into ../.claude/skills/ (for Claude Code Desktop / Cowork)
Both formats installed automatically — no choice needed
4. Initialize your vault
Open Claude Code inside your vault folder (not inside the repo subfolder):
cd ~/my-vault
claude # or open Claude Code Desktop pointed at this folder
Then say:
Initialize my vault
The Architect runs a friendly onboarding conversation covering:
Your name, language, role
Which agents to activate
Health agents setup (opt-in)
Gmail / Google Calendar integrations
Vault Structure
The Crew creates a hybrid PARA + Zettelkasten layout:

Agent Communication Pattern
Agents leave messages for each other on the shared board at Meta/agent-messages.md:
<!-- Example entries in Meta/agent-messages.md -->
## Pending Messages### FROM: Transcriber → TO: Sorter**Date**: 2026-03-21
**Subject**: New meeting note needs filing
**File**: 06-Meetings/2026-03-21-research-sync.md
**Action**: Route to 01-Projects/Thesis/ and extract tasks to inbox
---
### FROM: Food Coach → TO: Wellness Guide**Date**: 2026-03-21
**Subject**: Stress-eating pattern detected
**Context**: User mentioned eating poorly due to deadline stress 3x this week
**Action**: Check in on stress levels next session
When an agent runs, it checks this board and acts on messages addressed to it.
Configuration Files
User Profile (generated by Architect during onboarding)
cd ~/my-vault/My-Brain-Is-Full-Crew
# Pull latest changes
git pull origin main
# Re-run installer (safe to run multiple times)
bash scripts/launchme.sh
The installer is idempotent — re-running updates agent files without wiping your vault content.
Enabling / Disabling Opt-In Agents
To enable the Food Coach or Wellness Guide after onboarding:
"Enable the Food Coach agent"
"Activate the Wellness Guide"
"Disable the Food Coach"
The Architect will update Meta/user-profile.md and confirm.
To manually edit, open Meta/user-profile.md and change the checkbox:
The Crew responds in whatever language you use. Switch mid-conversation:
"Salva questo: riunione con Marco sul budget Q3"
"Cherche tout ce que j'ai écrit sur la mémoire de travail"
"作業記憶に関するメモを全部見せて"
Agents match your language automatically. No configuration needed.
Troubleshooting
Agents not activating
# Confirm you're running Claude Code from inside your vault (not the repo subfolder)cd ~/my-vault
claude
# Confirm agents are installedls .claude/agents/
ls .claude/skills/
Re-run onboarding
"Re-run vault initialization"
"Reset my user profile"
The Postman agent uses Claude Code's built-in tool access. Ensure Claude Code has browser/OAuth permissions granted for your Google account during onboarding. Re-trigger with:
"Reconnect Gmail integration"
"Re-authenticate Google Calendar"
