Input question

Build a private AI-powered personal encyclopedia. Ingest your digital archives — photos, chats, location history, transactions, and social exports — via a TypeScript CLI with a modular plugin system. AI agent harnesses (Claude, Codex, OpenCode) process each source and generate structured MDX wiki entries, all stored locally. A web frontend and desktop app render the wiki on your machine. Extend coverage with plugins and export everything to Markdown. Stack: TypeScript, MDX, Shell, agent APIs.
