Deep Dive

How It Works

1. Video, URL, or topic: YouTube transcript, article, talk, or a topic to research
2. Extract content: Pull transcript / fetch page / search authoritative source
3. Extract key insights: Core thesis · ranked insights · frameworks · surprising claims
4. Map to your projects: Which projects apply · what changes · what to file away
5. Integration plan: Immediate (≤5) · near-term · long-term · explicit discards
6. Store to Akashic + sync: mind_remember + scp md/html to the Mini for the Intel Hub
7. Markdown + HTML report: Indexable .md + Mission Control-themed companion to deep-dives/

Invocation Triggers

Use Cases

• Extract knowledge from a YouTube talk and map it to your projects
• Research a topic and produce an actionable integration plan
• Turn a conference talk or article into concrete next steps

The Problem

You watch a two-hour talk, nod at three good ideas, and forget all three by the next morning. The insight that would have changed how you build never makes it to a project, because there is no bridge between consuming content and acting on it. A month later you re-watch the same video because nothing was captured, nothing was mapped, and nothing was filed away as not-for-you. The cost is not the watching. It is watching the same thing twice.

What It Does

1. 1
   Extract the source content

   Pull the full YouTube transcript, fetch the article via WebFetch, or search for the most authoritative source on a topic. Full input, not a skim — the core thesis is usually buried mid-source.

2. 2
   Extract ranked insights

   Pull the core thesis, the top five to seven insights ranked by novelty and applicability, the reusable frameworks, the evidence and data points, and the claims that challenge conventional wisdom.

3. 3
   Map each insight to your projects

   For every insight: which project does it touch, what would change if you applied it, what would you start and stop. Insights that fit nothing get filed explicitly under not-applicable — that section is never empty.

4. 4
   Write the integration plan

   Immediate, near-term, long-term, and discard. Immediate is capped at five ruthless tasks — what specifically changes this week — not a backlog dump.

5. 5
   Emit markdown plus HTML companion

   Write the .md with frontmatter for Akashic indexing, then render the Mission Control-themed HTML companion off the canonical reports-theme CSS. Both artifacts, same slug, same directory.

6. 6
   Store to Akashic and sync to the Mini

   Store the full output via mind_remember with deep-dive plus source-domain plus topic tags, then scp both files to the Mac Mini so the Intel Hub Deep Dives tab can see them. Files on the MacBook are invisible to MC.
