I've watched some of Nate's and other's 2nd brain videos and currently going through the 2+ hr AI OS course. The thing I'm struggling with is how you access the information outside of Claude. I believe Nate might be using Obsidian...? He talks about bringing in his YT transcripts and other knowledge data to have it for context but not clear how that part works. If there are other people just starting to build their 2nd brains and want to connect, would love to chat and bounce ideas off others.

Is anyone else feel like Goldilocks, I definitely could be doing more than the Claude Pro subscription allows in claude code but can't see myself justifying going all the way to Max. I've seen some people talk about having 2 Claude subscriptions but know that is explicitly against policy, just not sure if it's enforce. You can enable usage credits but not sure how cost efficient that is... Is Claude telling me I should start using codex and just split the coding...? Any have experience in this middle ground?

Anyone else notice their weekly usage drop. I was at ~80% and now I see I'm at 54%... Not complaining just curious!

Would love to get a gauge as to why people in the community have chosen either Claude code or codex and why? Or are you using both?

I have a bad habit of accumulating a long list of YT videos I want to watch but never do or when I watch a video, it turns out to be intro topics or stuff I already have. To help with this, I build 2 triage skills, one for second brain/pkms and one for my claude setup. Each skill takes a URL or video transcript and gives me the following; - a summary of the content - any gaps it identified in my current system - should I watch/read it or not The special sauce is that I have markdown documents that I have created with Claude/Notion or that those systems create themselves when I build something so the prompts have the context from the project files. When I ask it for a gap, it actually knows what I've built (or have in process). So far, it seems to be working well - flagging areas or concepts that are worth reviewing (even saying this not be a good fit for your system but something to think about...). I recently updated the claude triage skill to also point out use cases that would be good to build. This came from me watching a video on claude cowork that didn't have anything new but they built out a use case for having cowork process your CC statements.
