If you don't know what I'm looking at here, you are probably falling behind because this is one of the easiest ways to improve Claude Code's memory and create a second brain. This is an Obsidian knowledge graph and let me show you how you should set up Obsidian when it comes to Claude Code. Now remember, Obsidian is completely free. It's something we download and then we designate a folder on our computer as a vault. Everything that is then inside that master folder is part of Obsidian and when we open up Claude Code in that folder, it's now connected to Obsidian. It's that simple. So the question then becomes, how do I properly organize that folder, that Obsidian vault, so that Claude Code can navigate it well? Because if our vault is just a random assortment of files and folders, then that doesn't bias anything. We want to give Claude Code a map so it can easily figure out where our information is and then give us better answers quicker. Now the common setup is what you see here and this is the Carpathia Obsidian RAG setup and RAG is in air quotes because it's not a true RAG system. But the idea is we have our vault, again you can designate any folders the vault, split into three file structures. We have the raw section, the wiki section, and the output section. The idea being I bring stuff in to my Obsidian vault and it goes into the raw folder. This is kind of just unstructured knowledge. From there, Claude Code takes a look at everything in the raw and it creates Wikipedia style articles about it, right? It's creating an article with structured information that Claude Code can take a look at at any time. From there, once we've created something in the wiki, when we want to turn it into some sort of deliverable, it gets sent to the output folder. And this output folder could be something like a slide deck, a PDF, whatever. But the truth is you can set this up however you want. You don't have to do raw, wiki, and output. You just need something that makes sense. So in theory, if you had a million files in this folder, do you have a clear path for Claude Code to follow to find it? And if you don't, you're wrong. And remember, you can just ask Claude Code for help to set up some sort of file structure that makes sense for you.
