SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Scaffold and wire a persistent SecondBrain vault that persists knowledge across Claude Code sessions and projects. It uses the PARA method (Projects, Areas, Resources, Archive) combined with an LLM-powered wiki layer to store, retrieve, and connect knowledge over time.

Core Features & Use Cases

PARA-based vault structure with cross-project references and domain/entity/concept pages to anchor knowledge.
LLM-powered wiki that compounds knowledge over time and supports cross-project context for planning and reviews.
Git-based versioning and templates to scaffold notes, domains, and entities for consistent knowledge capture across sessions.

Quick Start

Run the setup-secondbrain workflow to scaffold your vault, create the PARA structure, and initialize the wiki for cross-session knowledge management.

FAQPage Schema

How do I set up a persistent knowledge base across multiple projects?▼

A persistent knowledge base is scaffolded by creating a SecondBrain vault with a PARA structure, establishing domain and entity pages, and configuring cross-project references for consistent knowledge capture across sessions.

What is the PARA method for knowledge management?▼

The PARA method organizes knowledge into Projects, Areas, Resources, and Archive. This structure anchors notes and entities across multiple domains, supporting an LLM-powered wiki that compounds knowledge over time.

How do I create an LLM-powered wiki with cross-project references?▼

An LLM-powered wiki is created by scaffolding domain and concept pages with YAML frontmatter templates, establishing cross-project references, and applying Git-based versioning to store and retrieve connected knowledge.

Can I use Obsidian for a SecondBrain vault with YAML frontmatter?▼

Obsidian supports YAML frontmatter in vault templates, making it compatible with a SecondBrain setup that enforces structured domain and entity pages alongside PARA notes for cross-session knowledge management.

What is the best way to manage cross-session knowledge in Claude Code?▼

Managing cross-session knowledge is best achieved by scaffolding a persistent vault with PARA notes, domain entities, and Git-based versioning, allowing an LLM-powered wiki to provide cross-project context for planning and reviews.

Do I need Git-based versioning for a SecondBrain vault?▼

Git-based versioning is included as part of the SecondBrain setup to track changes across templates, PARA notes, and domain pages, ensuring consistent knowledge capture and retrieval across multiple sessions and projects.
