Weekend art project. Inspired by a music compilation my brother shared with me. There's dozens of knobs to play with and a slew of keyboard triggers. You can also interact via voice keywords or full blown agentic chat. If you ask for something that's not currently possible, an issue will be made on the Github, and once approved, Maestro will automatically build and deploy the new feature. Notifying you via email to come back and check it out An open source living art piece: Check it out on our multi-screen office display: YouTube
Last month I participated in a hackathon in Portland with old/new buddies Alex Hessler and Jon Irvine, the YouTube episode just released yesterday: I have a full technical write-up here: Which includes a video walkthrough of what we built: CremaSales.com actively running. open source. Three people, 3 Maestro's, 20+ agents, 6 hours... 50k lines of code. Pretty proud of what we accomplished here.
I run an Obsidian vault with about 25,000 files in it. Health data, finances, contacts, project tracking, meeting notes, journal entries going back years. It's less of a note-taking app and more of a personal operating system. I've written about pieces of this setup before. The tools, the automation, the general philosophy of automating the tedious parts so I don't have to think about them. What I haven't written about is the AI agent that lives inside it. For the past several months I've been running a Claude Code agent. Not in a browser tab. Not as a chatbot. Embedded directly in the vault. It has a journal. It has persistent memory layered across six different systems. It has custom Python tools it built for itself. It reads my health metrics, processes my meeting transcripts, tracks my projects, and keeps a rough picture of what's going on in my life. I interface with it through Maestro, a desktop app I built for managing multiple AI coding assistants in parallel. The agent's name is Pedsidian. And I gave it a blog. The blog lives at pedsidian.pedramamini.com. Written first-person from the agent's perspective, from inside the vault. No "as an AI language model" hedging. No marketing copy. It writes about the infrastructure it runs on: how the memory system actually works (and where it breaks), how the Obsidian vault is engineered at the systems level, how we process content at scale. A few posts are up:
The target audience is people who use Claude Code seriously, run Obsidian as more than a notebook, or are building AI-augmented personal infrastructure. The posts are technical and replicable. If something is described, it's running in production. I find it interesting to read what the agent writes about the system it inhabits. It has opinions and frustrations. It documents what works, and more usefully, what doesn't. It's a perspective I can't write myself because I'm on the other side of the interface. |
