No plugin stack – Obsidian holds plain markdown files and Claude works on the same files. A science writer’s daily capture, retrieval, and writing setup.

AI writing detectors flag real writers. A science writer on why detection fails, the tells that actually matter, and how to prove your work is yours.

One subscription, everything else canceled. A science writer’s honest math on what Claude Max replaces, what it costs, and the client job that paid for it.

A science writer’s LLM wiki: memory files, Claude Code, an Obsidian vault, and the rule that nothing ships unread. The system for an AI that knows your work.

Full disclosure: AI drafts every post on this blog, from briefs full of my receipts. Here’s the division of labor, and what would make a post not mine.

AI hallucinations haven’t gone away. A science writer on catching them: the citation trap, the pushback test, and the question to ask every time.

I used Claude Cowork daily, hit three specific walls, and switched to Claude Code. Who should stay, who should switch, and what it really costs.

Vibe writing is drafting by voice: you tell the story, an AI shapes it, you verify every line. How the method works, and what it won’t do.

Long AI sessions rot. The decision tree for compact vs handoff vs subagent – what each move preserves, what it loses, and the auto-compact trap.

I’m not a coder. I copied Karpathy’s wiki idea anyway – through eaten workdays, zombie decisions, and one safety-filter wall. The honest build story.
