Personal OS
A local-first knowledge workspace that turns scattered project context into useful reviews.
Personal project
Source unavailable publicly
Notes, project decisions and software activity accumulate in separate places. A useful workspace needs to connect them while preserving which source is authoritative.
From scattered context to useful reviews
- An Obsidian information model with raw captures, durable wiki notes and generated output.
- Refresh, status and review workflows across multiple project domains.
- A project radar that groups recent repository activity into candidates for follow-up.
Separate sources from views
- Source repositories remain authoritative; curated notes provide context and generated summaries are read-only views.
- Refresh commands read configured sources and write to the output layer.
- An Obsidian actions plugin exposes workspace automation controls.
Human follow-up stays explicit
- Separate captured material from maintained knowledge and generated output.
- Keep refreshes read-only with respect to source repositories.
- Surface candidates for review instead of silently deploying code or changing external systems.
Context and limits
Previously called Akhil OS. The vault, personal notes and source configuration are private; this case study describes the software structure.
