I created AS Notes (https://www.asnotes.io) (an extension for VS Code, Antigravity etc) partly because of this use case. It works like Obsidian, being markdown based, with wikilinks, mermaid rendering and task management. In VS Code, we have access to really good Agent harnesses and can navigate our notes and documents in a file system like manner. Further, using AGENTS.md, idea files etc we can instruct the agent how to interact, add to our notes etc. I've found working with my notes like this really useful, and provided I trim anything generated by an AI that's not going to be useful, provides an investment in the information I've gathered as the information is retained in markdown rather than getting lost in multiple chatbot UI s.
