Local-first 🧠 memory for Hermes Agent that lives in your Obsidian vault and remembers project context. Nightly 😴 dream passes turn repeat corrections into confirmed preferences with measurable confidence. Adapters ship for Claude Code, Codex, and OpenClaw, with an MCP server for anything else.

# Open Second Brain
Open Second Brain is a memory layer for AI agents that lives in an [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md) vault. Agents read and write it through MCP servers, lifecycle hooks and the `o2b` CLI. Everything the agent learns is a Markdown file under `Brain/`, so you can open, edit, grep and version it like any other note. A deterministic `dream` pass turns repeated signals into rules and retires the ones nothing uses; no model runs inside that algorithm.
