When developers use AI today, the codebase turns into a shared workspace. The AI reads it, writes to it, reasons through it. The code becomes a scaffold of memory between human and machine.
What if such a scaffold could work for anything, not just code?
What if your reflections, research, ideas, bookmarks, and projects lived in one place where agents could read, write, and build on them as your knowledge compounds over time?
That's Superpaper: an Obsidian-native agent workspace that turns your Obsidian vault into a shared space between you and AI.
The two way interface
You use agents to operate your vault. Say "research standing desks under $800 that fit my home office" and a report appears in your files, already cross-referenced with the dimensions you saved last month. Say "organize these bookmarks" and they get sorted.
But the vault is also how agents interact with you. Results don't vanish into a chat log. They land as files in Obsidian, linked to what's already there, yours to edit and keep. Knowledge compounds.
Your vault is no longer a one-way street. It's how AI agents participate in your world.
How it grows
Ask a question and agents check dozens of sources. A report appears in your vault, linked to related ideas. The system learns where your gaps are and fills them. Over time it becomes the operating memory for what you knew, decided, and revised.
It's all plain text. Any AI that reads text can participate, now or years from now. No SDK, no proprietary format. One instruction file tells any agent how it works.
The renaissance
For one person, the vault is an extended mind, an exocortex. For a team or organization, shared vaults become multi-agent native workspaces that can also power and host custom interfaces.
Ownership
It grows out of your notes, projects, and conversations with agents. Everything lives as plain text on your machine. Files that outlive any app. No database, no hidden service. Any AI that reads text can work in the same vault. Keep your thinking yours, and build on top of it.
