Turn Obsidian Into Your Claude Code Command Center

Artem Zhutov · Intermediate ·💻 AI-Assisted Coding ·1d ago
Recently I've been using Obsidian less and less. Found that it's very limiting in terms of expressiveness. In markdown you have just text. In HTML you can express information more visually. So I built a command center inside Obsidian. One view where me and Claude are every morning, with live goals, experiments, sleep and energy, point A and point B. I think of this as a dynamic memory for Claude.
