The Daily Ritual
Six commands, 10-15 minutes, and your vault stays alive.
The Nightly Ritual
The system only works if you use it. Agent0 is designed around a single daily habit: sit down for 10 to 15 minutes, run six commands in order, and close the laptop. The agents handle the rest.
This is not a suggestion. It is the operating rhythm. Skip it for three days and your vault goes stale. Ideas stop compounding. Tasks pile up without extraction. The system will notice and flag it.
The Six Commands
| # | Command | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | Open Obsidian | Drop any quick captures into today's daily note. Links, screenshots, shower thoughts. |
| 1 | /daily | Processes yesterday's unprocessed content. Surfaces your active idea and pending tasks. You brain dump. The system extracts tasks, ideas, and decisions. |
| 2 | /sync | Pulls agent work from while you were away. Auto-merges safe changes. Pushes your local updates. |
| 3 | /get-shit-done | Executes tasks you already approved. Nothing ships without your sign-off. |
| 4 | /maintain | Cleans the vault. Fixes broken links, updates stale frontmatter, surfaces orphaned notes. |
| 5 | /tldr | Summarizes your session. Updates memory. Pushes everything to git. Non-negotiable closer. |
What a Session Looks Like
You open your terminal. Claude greets you with today's state:
- Your active idea and its linked tasks
- How many tasks need attention (proposed, waiting for feedback)
- Any carryover from yesterday's uncompleted actions
- Unprocessed captures from between sessions
You type a brain dump. Maybe three sentences about a pricing change you want to test. Maybe a full paragraph about why your onboarding flow is broken. The system reads what you wrote and responds:
- "Test pricing change" gets extracted as a task and routed to the backlog
- Your onboarding complaint gets linked to customer research from last week
- The competitor you mentioned gets flagged for the Radar agent
Some days you have one session. Some days you have three. Each session appends to the same daily note. At the end of the day, the nightly Chronicle role reads everything and writes a consolidated entry.
Between Sessions
Ideas do not wait for your nightly ritual. When something hits you during the day:
- Open Obsidian on your phone or laptop
- Drop it into today's daily note (Quick Captures section)
- Close Obsidian
That is it. A link. A screenshot. A single line of text. Even "something about payments, figure it out later" is enough. When your next session starts, /daily picks up everything you dropped in and processes it.
Weekly and Monthly
| Cadence | What Happens | Trigger |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly (Sunday) | Reads all 7 daily notes. Scores work, family, content, and personal. Identifies biggest win, biggest miss, and one change for next week. | Claude offers it, or run /reflect |
| Monthly (1st) | Rolls up weekly patterns. Reviews agent utilization. Checks if your active idea made progress or stalled. | Scheduled agent or /reflect |
Both reflections can run automatically via the scheduled agent, or you can trigger them manually.
While You Sleep
After you close the laptop, the scheduled agents keep working:
- Chronicle (10pm) writes the nightly journal entry in the daily journal, consolidating the full day
- Radar Scout scans monitored repos for changes and flags new signals
- Task proposals appear in your backlog for tomorrow's review
You wake up to a vault that is already organized. Yesterday's work is summarized. New opportunities are flagged. Tasks are queued. All you have to do is sit down, run the six commands, and keep building.
