On February 20th, 2026 I recorded a conversation with [[Greg Isenberg]] about how I’m using [[Obsidian]] and [[Claude Code]] to speed up my learning, pattern recognition, and overall output. <iframe width="100%" height="450" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/6MBq1paspVU?rel=0" title="How I Use Obsidian + Claude Code to Run My Life (2026)" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen> </iframe> One of my goals was to bring attention to how absurd this shift is in the way we interact with computers. I was hoping to show things in a way that functioned, even a little, as a port of entry into a new way of thinking about [[Artificial Intelligence]] and the way that we can use [[LLMs]] to learn more about ourselves and our work. I started the conversation by giving a general explanation of [[Claude Code]] and then a general explanation of [[Obsidian]] and the I started to explain how I had combined them into one integrated system through unique [[Obsidian Commands]] and the way I embedded my own terminal plugin right into the software. ![[Screenshot 2026-02-24 at 8.02.34 PM 1.png]] The response to the conversation has been very strong. And it’s made me think that perhaps I should make an expanded video on how I’m using [[Obsidian]] that goes into some of the things that I did not explore in the video, like how my Vault is constructed and how I think about linking things together and why. <blockquote style="border-left: 3px solid var(--ax1, #3A4B5B); padding-left: 1.5em; margin: 1.5em 0; font-style: italic; font-size: 1.1em;"> I think some things that would be interesting would be: your vault structure (use of folders/tags/properties), and watching a typical writing/thinking session <span style="display: block; margin-top: 0.75em; font-style: normal; font-size: 0.8em; color: var(--tx3, #989898);">@kepano, <a href="https://x.com/kepano/status/2026337591822528581">February 24, 2026</a></span> </blockquote> I have also been thinking about releasing my [[Obsidian]] theme and the terminal plugin I created so that others can get set up with this in the same way I have. Also as a way for people to interact with [[Obsidian]] in the same way I am and to see what kind of feedback they share about it or how they expand on it in some way. **Resources:** - [[How I Use Obsidian + Claude Code to Run My Life (2026) - Transcript]]
