Give Your Agent a Second Brain (and a UI to Match)
summary
Builds a typed second brain in Sanity, queries it with Grock and uses Claude Haiku to map records to React components so agents return UI not blobs. Demo shows a card, an idea shelf and an insights card rendered live (three actionable ideas for “40 minutes” and a panel showing 17 entries on context/agents), claiming no vector DB, no RAG, no chatboxes and proving cards and shelves that update live from new captures.
