Turn 10,994 notes into agent memory
We just presented a full system for turning thousands of personal notes into persistent agent memory at one of the biggest AI engineering events in the world — and it’s premiering right now on the AI Engineer YouTube channel.
AI Engineer World’s Fair is where the biggest names in AI engineering share what they’re building, OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Cursor, Hugging Face, and this year, we were right there with them. And we are excited to bring you front-row access to the whole thing, for free.

Here’s why we think you’ll love this one.
Every AI engineer has hit this wall. You have thousands of notes, highlights, repos, and PDFs across Obsidian, Readwise, Notion, Google Drive, and none of it follows you into your next Claude or Codex session. Every research session starts from zero. Every conversation loses everything when it ends.
Louis-François and Paul Iusztin spent 18 months solving this. What they built is a research wiki that your agents maintain for you, one that grows with every session instead of resetting. No vector database, no knowledge graph, nothing to host. Just Markdown, YAML, and folders.
The whole thesis in one line: one-shot agents use context, a Research OS builds memory.
In the talk, they walk through how the system actually got here: three versions, two failures, and the design decisions that made V3 work. You’ll see four Claude Code skills you can install right now, two live demos pulling in GitHub repos and URLs in real time, and the full open-source codebase you can clone tonight.
We’re also at the World’s Fair in person this Sunday. Louis-François, Samridhi Vaid, and Omar Solano are running an 80-minute hands-on workshop: “Context Engineering in 2026: Compaction, Memory & Cost.”
Where the keynote is about giving agents memory, this one is about keeping that memory lean: how to compact context so agents stay sharp without burning through tokens, and how to manage cost as your system scales.
If you’re attending or anywhere near San Francisco, come find us. Louis-François will be there all day and would love to meet. Just DM him.

P.S. We also ran a 2-hour workshop at AIE London a few weeks ago on building multi-agent systems with MCP servers from scratch, that full recording and code are live too. Watch it here.
