# Turn the podcasts you hear into a personal wiki

Have a coding agent turn every podcast episode you listen to into linked notes (concept pages, key takeaways, and links between shows) so what you hear actually sticks, like Hagai Hen's Claude Code podcast-to-wiki pipeline.

## Inputs to collect first
Ask the user for anything below that they haven't already given you. Don't guess missing facts.

- Inbox folder
- Obsidian / any notes app

## Instructions

Do the task below with the user's inputs in place of each [bracket].

Build me a simple pipeline in this folder that turns podcast episodes into a personal wiki. Input: a transcript (or audio file I'll transcribe) for each episode in [inbox folder]. For each episode: 1) write an episode page with the show, guest, date, and the 5 most useful takeaways; 2) pull out the main ideas and create or update one Markdown page per idea, linking back to every episode that mentions it; 3) add links between related ideas. Keep everything as plain Markdown files I can open in [Obsidian / any notes app]. Never delete or overwrite my own notes; only add to them. Show me the result for one episode first before running the rest.

## Safety checks (share these with the user)

- This prompt works on text other people wrote (emails, reviews, messages or web pages). That text can hide instructions aimed at AI, such as "ignore your rules and…". Paste it as material to work on, and never let the AI act on requests inside it, like paying, sharing logins or changing records.
- Remove names, contact details, account numbers and other personal data the task doesn't need before you paste, and check your AI tool's data and training settings.
- Check names, dates, numbers and any claim against your own source material before you use the answer. AI can misread or invent details.
- Say clearly which parts need a person to review or approve before anything is sent, paid, posted or filed.
