Research Vault

research-vault · // building

A homegrown research system. Articles I find on the web get stored as markdown representations, then combined with AI-driven processing — summarization, tagging, cross-reference, semantic search.

Currently runs on my local machine with Claude and other agents. Migrating toward a GCP-backed app with an iPad-readable web UI so research can happen wherever I am. This site (lafving.com) is the same content model in miniature — products, projects, ideas, prototypes, stories — applied to my own work first.

Learnings

Local markdown + agents proves the loop; the bottleneck is sync, search, and mobile access — solvable with cheap cloud primitives.
