Well, it boils down to a single piece of functionality, which enables several tasks for me.

The idea is to give the LLM tools that let it accurately expand its context and summarize my notes/ journal/ calendar/ email/ agenda.
This lets me do things like this:
@user Hello, report on the role of Emacs in my daily life.

[4 tool calls omitted]
Emacs plays a central role in your daily life, serving as a multifaceted tool for coding, note-taking, task management, and even creative projects. Here's a structured summary of its role based on the journal entries:
---
*** *1. Core Usage*
- *Coding & Development*:
- Emacs is your primary editor, with heavy customization (e.g., Doom Emacs, Lisp configurations). You frequently troubleshoot issues (e.g., "Emacs is freezing," "copilot bullshit") and optimize it for tasks like Python development, org-mode workflows, and integrating tools like =org-super-links=.
- You value its extensibility, though frustrations arise with plugins (e.g., "sly is being a shit," "org-mode overriding timestamp hooks").
- *Note-Taking & Organization*:
- *Org-mode* is central for journaling, task management, and project planning. Entries show meticulous use of timestamps, habits, and workflows (e.g., "C-c i i" for inactive timestamps).
- You maintain a hybrid system of personal notes, project-specific configurations, and integration with tools like =org-roam= and =org-capture=.
- *Automation & Productivity*:
- Scripts and configurations (e.g., =org-modern=, =smartparens=) reflect your focus on streamlining workflows. You often debug and refactor your Emacs setup to improve efficiency.
---
*** *2. Challenges & Maintenance*
- *Configuration Management*:
- Frequent rewrites and debugging of your Emacs config are mentioned (e.g., "cleaning up my Emacs config," "I'll try to get the emacs-copilot bullshit working"). This indicates a iterative, hands-on approach to customization.
- Issues with plugin compatibility (e.g., "Doom Emacs is consistently slow") and dependency conflicts (e.g., "themes breaking things") highlight the complexity of your setup.
---
*** *3. Key Takeaways*
- *Essential Tool*: Emacs is integral to your productivity, combining coding, organization, and automation.
- *Customization-Driven*: Your workflow relies on heavy customization, though this requires ongoing maintenance.
- *Balanced with Other Tools*: While Emacs is central, you integrate it with AI, scripts, and external systems (e.g., =org-roam=, =mu4e= for email).
---
Would you like to refine this summary or explore specific aspects (e.g., Emacs and AI integration, task management workflows)?
Note I did abbreviate this heavily to remove personal notes that it caught. Is it perfect? By no means. But in a minute or so it got all the major points.
I'd say it's hella useful, even if it's crude and jank.
