Work
One Obsidian vault for all your bots: own folders, append-only logs, one rules file
Bots need a shared memory that you own and that they can read without an API.
What hurt
@metalfox_ssbm had Grok Bot set up Obsidian (plain Markdown on your own machine) as one shared vault: each bot gets its own folder, a status page, and a log it can only add to, work moves through a shared inbox, every decision gets its own note, and one rules file tells every bot how to use it.

What to install or create
Folder per bot → append-only log → shared inbox → decision notes → one rules file.
Bots
Main bot
Builds the vault structure and the rules file.
Plugins
None on day one. Follow the first-run steps.
Routines
None on the first run. Watch one manual pass first.
The prompt
This is a tip, not a pasteable system prompt. The author did not publish one. Follow the first-run steps.
First run
- 1Read https://x.com/metalfox_ssbm/status/2112962816668062111 (credit @metalfox_ssbm).
- 2Ask your bot to set up an Obsidian vault the bots can read and write.
- 3Give each bot a folder, status page, and append-only log.
- 4Add a shared inbox folder and one rules file for all bots.
- 5Have each bot write every decision as its own note.
What to tweak
Steal 'append-only': nothing gets overwritten when several bots share files.
