# 2026-04-19

## What's on today

Extended the Council repo into a personal knowledge base with the Council as a built-in advisory layer. Scaffolded `daily/`, `notes/`, `projects/`, `reading/`, `inbox/`, `reflections/`, `reviews/`, `_templates/`, and `scripts/`. Shipped the full command suite (/ask-*, /reflect, /triage-inbox, /review-week, /review-month). Set up the AudioPen → webhook → inbox pipeline with a stdlib-only Python receiver and the bash normaliser.

## Mood / state of mind

The Council now sees my actual work, not just discrete questions.

## Fleeting thoughts

- The difference between /council (formal) and /ask-* (casual consult) matters. Keeping /council reserved preserves its weight; if every question became a /council run the tool would dilute.
- [[notes/pkb-as-lens-substrate|The PKB-as-substrate reframe]] was the load-bearing design move.
