A three-person team at Viget used their internal hackathon to explore integrating Claude Code with Obsidian vaults for knowledge work automation. They built an Obsidian plugin that auto-summarizes web clips (including YouTube transcripts), enables multi-file LLM synthesis, and adds multi-select to the file explorer. The stack used TypeScript, Vercel AI SDK, and youtubei.js. A key takeaway was the 'compound engineering' workflow: after each session, updating CLAUDE.md with lessons learned to prevent repeated mistakes. Claude Code took them from a three-bullet plan to a working MVP in ~30 minutes, though they note it requires tighter guardrails for high-stakes projects.
