How to build a private memory for birthdays, books, and visits with Graybox

Capture personal details like birthdays, book recommendations, and doctor notes into linked pages you can search.

Credentials. Health notes and personal details are sent to the LLM provider you configure during organize and ask, so use a self-hosted model if that is a concern.

Who it is forAn individual who wants a private place to remember friends' birthdays, recommended books, and notes from appointments.

The problemPersonal details and reminders are scattered across phone notes, texts, and paper, and are easy to forget.

The outcomeLinked pages for people, topics, and events from your personal captures, plus answers to questions about them.

What you need first

  • Python 3.10 or newer
  • Access to an LLM provider and its API key, set in an .env file or as GRAYBOX_LLM_API_KEY
  • A config.yaml based on config.example.yaml with your LLM and workspace details

Steps

  1. Capture personal notes with graybox capture "<personal note>", such as a birthday or a book recommendation. (inferred, check the README)
  2. Run graybox organize --dry-run to preview the pages, then graybox organize to write them.
  3. Browse the resulting pages with graybox pages.
  4. Ask about your captures with graybox ask "<question>". (inferred, check the README)

Prompt for your agent

Use the Aaryanverma/graybox repo to capture the personal notes in <notes-file> and run `graybox organize`. Expected output: wiki pages for the people, events, and topics in those notes. Verify that `graybox ask "<question>"` returns an answer that cites one of the new pages.

Caveat. The README says the tool works for personal use, but its page types skew toward work, so personal pages may need manual review with `graybox pages`.
