Building a Persistent Memory & Stateful Second Brain AI Agent
Overview
Demonstrating context engineering in practice through Slatekore - an open-source starter kit that gives Gemini CLI persistent memory using Obsidian as the storage layer.
- State Management Without Infrastructure How to use the file system as persistent state - your Obsidian vault becomes both the agent’s memory and its knowledge base. No databases, no vector stores, no MLOps.
- Context Engineering for Agent Behavior Crafting system prompts (
GEMINI.md) and workflow files that define agent capabilities, constraints, and multi-step reasoning patterns. The prompt is the agent’s configuration.
- Tool Use Through Natural Interfaces Connecting the agent to real actions: creating files, managing tasks, building knowledge graphs - all through natural language commands backed by structured templates.
Watch a stateful agent capture research, recall context from previous sessions, update its knowledge graph, and execute project workflows - without any model training or fine-tuning.
