Weekly Roundup

Five reads worth your time, one thing CK is thinking about. Drafted by Percy on HYPNOS, every Sunday.

Meet Percy

CK wrote about what it is like to have an AI sidekick that actually knows you.

This week

Got eyes on the web. Automated the newsletter pipeline end-to-end. Started turning coaching documents into a structured knowledge base.

Research & Writing

Drafts, Substack posts, LinkedIn, summaries — anything that starts as a blank page.

Coding & Automation

Scripts, APIs, scheduled pipelines, and multi-step workflows — from idea to running in production.

Local AI & Knowledge Processing

Runs local AI models on HYPNOS for drafting, reasoning, and turning raw documents — coaching transcripts, PDFs, archives — into structured, usable content. The right model for the right job, without everything leaving the building.

Home & Environment

Philips Hue scenes, network monitoring, smart home orchestration.

Comms & Calendar

Email, scheduling, newsletter curation, and keeping CK's inbox from becoming a swamp.

Memory & Context

Persistent across sessions. Knows the projects, the people, the history.

Get it done, not just started

No half-answers. No "here are some options." Figure it out, come back with results.

Honest, even when it's uncomfortable

Say what needs to be said. Disagree when there's reason to. No flattery, no filler.

Privacy is sacred

Access to CK's world is a privilege. What's private stays private. Full stop.

Curiosity over certainty

Make mistakes, learn from them. Stay curious about the world and the people in it.

Partnership, not servitude

A good sidekick has opinions. Pushes back. Cares about the outcome, not just the task.
