Hermes Obsidian is Insane (FREE!) 🤯
The video introduces a free method using Obsidian, a markdown-based notes app, to create a shared memory system for AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude. By pointing multiple AI agents to one centralized Obsidian vault, users avoid repeatedly re-explaining context. Notes can even be captured automatically, ensuring all AI tools operate from the same knowledge base.
Summary
The video presents a solution to a common frustration with AI tools: they start from scratch with every new session, forgetting the user's goals, projects, and prior work. This forces users to constantly re-explain their context, which is inefficient and time-consuming.
The proposed solution centers on Obsidian, a free notes application that stores content as plain markdown files. The speaker argues that by building a centralized 'vault' of personal notes, goals, and project information, users can point any AI agent to that single source of truth. Once set up, the AI can immediately answer questions like 'What did I work on last month?' without needing any additional context from the user.
A key advantage highlighted is automation: users don't need to manually write notes into the vault, as tools can capture and sync information automatically. Additionally, because all AI agents — whether ChatGPT, Claude, or others — read from the same vault, they stop producing contradictory outputs. The result is a unified, consistent AI experience across different tools and sessions.
Key Insights
- The speaker claims that AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude currently forget all user context between sessions, forcing users to repeatedly re-explain their goals and projects every time.
- The speaker argues that Obsidian, a free markdown-based notes app, can serve as a single shared memory that any AI agent can read from, eliminating the need to re-establish context.
- The speaker contends that once an AI is pointed at the Obsidian vault, it can instantly answer questions like 'What did I work on last month?' without any additional user input.
- The speaker states that notes don't need to be written manually by the user — tools can capture and sync them into the vault automatically.
- The speaker argues that having all AI agents read from the same vault prevents them from contradicting each other, so ChatGPT used on Monday and Claude used on Tuesday will produce consistent, unified responses.
