My agent-run second brain
The system I work with: I capture from my phone, agents file, propose and execute, and I approve and review.
- 25tasks run by agents in 4 days_system/logs/agent-runs/, 23–26 Oct 2026
- 23of those 25 ended waiting for my review; the other 2 were merges I had approved_system/logs/agent-runs/

- 3automatic checks: privacy before every commit, a result gate and reflection_system/hooks/
Figures counted in the system’s own files on 27 Oct 2026.
The problem
A one-person consultancy has to capture, organise, decide and execute at the same time. What isn’t organised gets lost, and what isn’t reviewed can’t be delegated.
How it’s built
A Markdown vault in git is the memory. Notion is the task list. An orchestrator hands work to specialised agents, and a reviewer checks every result before it reaches me.
What the agents do and what I decide
One real run
Phase 4 of the system itself, on 26 October 2026: the reviewer sent the work back once before it reached me.
Rules it follows on its own
- Three autonomy levels: green (read, file, propose), amber (approved tasks only) and red (send, publish, spend, delete): for red it always asks me.
- No agent approves itself: either I approve, or the task belongs to a class I agreed in writing, and the task is marked accordingly.
- Private stays private: it lives in a folder outside git, and a check before every commit blocks lines marked private.
- Every fact about me carries its source and a marker: said by me or inferred. Inferred facts are confirmed before use.
- Every week it proposes changes to its own rules; they only apply if I accept them, and git keeps every version.

Why it matters to you
It’s the same pattern I build for a small business: AI prepares and executes, a person approves at the points that matter, and everything is logged and can be undone.
