Hi everyone, following up on the 4/29 call, I wanted to share my project in a bit more detail and get some feedback. I’m building a personal AI system to manage my school/university workflow. The idea is to automatically organize everything I send — files, notes, audio, etc. — and make it usable later through an AI assistant in a RAG-style setup. Long-term goal: turn this into a fully self-organizing knowledge system with an AI assistant on top. Current setup: - Telegram as the input layer - n8n as the automation layer - an AI “distributor” that decides whether to create a new file or update an existing one - Obsidian as the main knowledge structure - Google Drive as the synced storage layer - folder IDs planned to be mapped through a Google Sheet for routing and scalability Simplified vault structure: OS-Data/ Subjects/ # Main subject-based knowledge structure Lit/ # Literature / German language & literature _subject.md # Subject metadata: teacher, grading, requirements, rules 12_H2/ # Grade 12, second semester Assignments/ # Tasks that need to be completed active/ # Open / unfinished assignments done/ # Completed / submitted assignments Materials/ # Teacher materials, PDFs, worksheets, sources Notes/ # Lesson notes, summaries, personal notes Works/ # Student-created work: essays, presentations, projects Exams/ # Actual course exams, corrections, grades, feedback MAT/ # Mathematics Eng/ # English INF/ # Computer Science / Informatik Che/ # Chemistry Pol/ # Politics Spa/ # Spanish Spo/ # Sports Global/ # General context for the AI system Me.md # Personal learning profile / preferences School.md # School context, grading, general rules Writing.md # Writing style rules and expectations Templates/ # Templates for creating new notes/files Assignment.md Work.md Exam.md Note.md Unsorted/ # Fallback area for unclear or unsorted files

No new Claude updates over the past few days so we have a few other videos coming out Anyone want to present a project they have been working on?

Hey everyone 👋 I’m currently building a personal AI system around my university workflow and wanted to get some opinions from people who’ve done similar things. Right now, I’m setting up an Obsidian vault where I store all my uni-related data (assignments, files, notes, requirements, etc.). The goal is to later use something like Claude Cowork as a kind of “AI assistant” that can: - handle assignments - help with bigger projects - support exam prep Since I don’t have API/admin access to my university system (Moodle), I can’t automate data collection directly. So I’m focusing on building a good input pipeline instead. My current idea is: 1. use a Telegram bot as a quick input (send files, notes, voice, etc.) 2. process everything through n8n (detect type, transcribe, etc.) 3. then store it in Obsidian, where AI can later work with it Main question: Do you think it’s worth building this whole automation layer (Telegram + n8n + auto-classification), or would you keep it simpler and just upload things manually and let something like Claude Cowork handle organizing + structuring the data? Second question: Has anyone found practical ways to work around restricted Moodle APIs? In my case: - API access requires admin permissions - so I can’t use HTTP requests to fetch assignments or course data Are there any realistic alternatives here? (e.g. plugins, integrations, scraping approaches, etc. — nothing shady, just curious what’s possible) Would really appreciate any thoughts or experiences @Ryan Nolan, @Matt Payne 🙌
