What This Skill Does

My Brain Is Full — Crew is a comprehensive productivity suite designed for Obsidian users who struggle with information overload. Rather than simply providing tools, this skill deploys a specialized team of 10 AI agents directly into your local vault via Claude Code. By operating within your local file system, the Crew manages your knowledge, mental wellness, and logistics through natural conversation. Whether you need to triage a chaotic inbox, synthesize disparate notes, or track nutritional intake, the system automatically routes your requests to the appropriate specialized agent. This ensures that your vault remains a dynamic, structured "second brain" rather than a digital graveyard of unfinished thoughts.

Installation

1. Ensure you have Claude Code, Obsidian, git, and bash installed on your system.
2. Navigate to your Obsidian vault root directory in your terminal.
3. Clone the repository using git clone https://github.com/gnekt/My-Brain-Is-Full-Crew.git.
4. Run the setup script via bash scripts/launchme.sh within the cloned folder.
5. Restart Claude Code in your vault root and trigger the initialization with the command "Initialize my vault" to start the onboarding wizard.

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for researchers, students, and professionals who maintain extensive Zettelkasten or PARA-based systems. It is particularly effective for those who struggle with executive function, as the "Sorter" and "Librarian" agents automate the tedious maintenance tasks that lead to vault abandonment. Additionally, it serves as a private life-management assistant, bridging the gap between your digital notes and real-world health goals through the "Food Coach" and "Wellness Guide" modules.

Example Prompts

• "Sorter, I just dumped my entire meeting transcript into the inbox; please parse this into actionable tasks and file them into my projects folder."
• "Connector, find any hidden relationships between my notes on intermittent fasting and my notes on cognitive focus from last month."
• "Food Coach, I have spinach, chickpeas, and eggs in the fridge—give me a quick meal idea and add the missing ingredients to my grocery list note."

Tips & Limitations

To maximize effectiveness, ensure your vault uses a consistent directory structure as defined during the initial Architect setup. The agents rely on local file access, so refrain from moving system folders like .claude/ manually. Note that this skill requires a Claude Pro/Max subscription for full functionality, as it relies on advanced model reasoning. Since the agents operate locally, your data remains private; however, remember that your requests are sent to Anthropic's API for processing during the agent's reasoning cycle.
