Prerequisites

  • Claude Code CLI
  • Markdown editor (Obsidian recommended)
  • Cloud sync folder (OneDrive, iCloud, Dropbox)

Install

  1. Clone the engine
    git clone https://github.com/bugroger/2bd ~/Code/2bd-engine
    cd ~/Code/2bd-engine
    
  2. Create your vault
    claude skill run init --args "fresh --vault=~/OneDrive/2bd-vault"
    
    This creates your vault with the default folder structure and templates.
  3. Symlink for convenience (optional)
    ln -s ~/OneDrive/2bd-vault ./vault
    
  4. Open in Obsidian and start planning Open your vault folder in Obsidian, then run your first planning ritual:
    claude skill run ritual-planning-daily
    

New computer setup

If your vault already exists elsewhere:
cd ~/Code/2bd-engine
claude skill run init --args "reconnect --vault=~/OneDrive/2bd-vault"
ln -s ~/OneDrive/2bd-vault ./vault

Configuration

The engine stores vault path in .claude/config.md (git-ignored):
# 2bd Engine Configuration

## Vault

vault_path: /Users/you/OneDrive/2bd-vault
All skills read this config to find your vault. If you move your vault:
claude skill run init --args "reconnect --vault=/new/path"
ln -sf /new/path ./vault

Update your profile

Personalize how Claude interacts with you:
claude skill run init --args "profile"
This creates directives in your vault that control:
  • Your name, role, and goals
  • Leadership identity and growth edge
  • AI communication style (formality, directness, coaching approach)
