It shows data from both of your storages: Obsidian and gbrain. So, if you stick to Obsidian-only setup, it does not do much.

I am looking forward to getting feedback from you. I can't give any guarantees though))

It's more about "meta" data over the data itself. What seemed for me good enough (notes had hierarchy only around some topics of interest) ended up in being almost useless for AI agents. When I've seen for the first time how my notes were really structured (only two clouds and endless non-linked grid of random ideas and observations) I'd got an idea why it was useless for AI. Then I tried to remove some garbage myself, tried to do this with the help of agent, but ended up making a KB from scratch and cherry-pick notes from my old knowledge base. Now it looks like 4 separated clouds and only few random disconnected notes out there.

Last week I changed my job and this KB got quickly saturated with some information about company, contracts, people in company etc. This helped me to start off quickly on the new site, but the downside was that I concerned about what sorts of info had been stored in this KB. This Skill has helped me (along with basically `grep`) to ensure that there is no leakage and work is fully separated from anything else.

I put "wife's insights" into quotation marks, because, honestly, most of things contributed by my wife into this KB were really obvious or boring things which don't empower this KB in any way. She knows what it means ;)

I used it to find out that my work notes and personal notes are mixed. Therefore, I decided to split this into separate KBs.

Anyway, I'm just curious about what contained in my Obsidian and gbrain (mostly the latter one).

Mostly to understand the structure of your knowledge base. To search across the KB it is more convenient to use Obsidian/gbrain itself.

Suppose you've been collecting thousands of notes from meetings, feedback from colleagues or code-reviews, "insights" and tips from you wife over the years. Aren't you curious what this KB contains and how it has evolved over time?

So, shortly it is a debug tool for your second brain.
