Open Source Second Brain System Built on Claude Code for Task Management

An open source system called Kipi System has been built using Claude Code to function as a "second brain" for managing tasks and communications. The system tracks every open thread across multiple platforms and won't let users forget anything.

How It Works

One command produces the entire day's workflow. The system pulls data from calendar, email, CRM, and social feeds, reads every open thread, checks what went cold, then produces a single HTML file containing every action pre-written and sorted by friction (easiest first), with copy buttons for easy execution.

Thread Management Features

• Every DM, email, and follow-up opens a tracked loop
• After 3 days with no reply, it drafts the follow-up automatically
• After 14 days, it forces a decision: send it, park it, or kill it
• 9 loop types, each with escalation timers
• Nothing dies in silence - all threads are actively managed

Learning Capabilities

The system learns from conversations. Users can paste a transcript, and it extracts what mattered, what got pushback, and what the user owes. It routes each insight to the right place, and weeks later, something from that conversation can influence what it suggests today.

Design Philosophy

Built specifically for ADHD users as a design philosophy, not just a feature. The system avoids shame language, sorts items by friction for dopamine, uses effort tracking (not outcome tracking), and decides what to do while users execute or skip tasks.

Technical Implementation

The system runs on Claude Code with hooks, skills, and MCP servers. The pattern works anywhere you manage concurrent relationships and can't afford to drop one. The source code is available on GitHub at https://github.com/assafkip/kipi-system.
