LifeHub 2.0
LifeHub is a long-term, file-based, AI-assisted operating system for turning raw information into structured knowledge, usable assets, specifications, applications, and reviewable outputs.
For practical human operating guidance, start with 00_user_guide/README.md.
For AI operator context loading and governance, start with LifeHub/08_admin/03_operator/context_runtime/TIER_A_CORE.md, then route through LifeHub/08_admin/03_operator/context_runtime/CONTEXT_DIRECTORY.index.json. Use LifeHub/08_admin/LIFEHUB_CONTEXT_INDEX.md only when loading-model interpretation or broader context discovery is needed.
What This Workspace Is
This repository is the continuity layer behind LifeHub.
The operational workspace now lives inside LifeHub/. Repository infrastructure and supporting reference material remain outside that folder.
- Files and folders are the source of truth.
- AI operators help structure, synthesize, specify, and build.
- Important logic should live in files, not only in chat.
- The workspace stays portable across tools and AI providers.
Repository Structure
00_user_guide stores practical human-facing guidance for using LifeHub without replacing governance or AI operator instructions.
LifeHub/01_inbox stores raw intake, quick captures, and unprocessed material.
LifeHub/02_projects stores staged project workspaces that move from source material toward outputs, including project-owned app workspaces in 05_apps/ when needed.
LifeHub/03_systems stores reusable system templates, methods, and operating structures.
LifeHub/04_assets stores reusable operational artifacts such as SOPs, checklists, policies, and templates.
LifeHub/05_specs stores structured requirements for workflows, dashboards, systems, and software.
LifeHub/06_apps stores shared or cross-project application implementation work when specs are ready.
LifeHub/07_outputs stores final exports, reports, reviews, and delivery-ready artifacts.
LifeHub/08_admin stores the authoritative governance layer for LifeHub itself.
Reference/ stores supporting material only. It is not the authoritative layer.
.git/, .github/, and .devcontainer/ stay at repository root as technical infrastructure.
Working Distinctions
- Thinking and intake begin in
LifeHub/01_inbox and early project stages.
- Systems and reusable workflow structures live in
LifeHub/03_systems.
- Assets are practical operational tools in
LifeHub/04_assets.
- Specs define behavior and requirements in
LifeHub/05_specs.
- Project apps implement approved project specs in structured
LifeHub/02_projects/<Project>/05_apps/ workspaces.
- Root
LifeHub/06_apps is only for shared or cross-project implementations.
- Outputs collect reviewed deliverables in
LifeHub/07_outputs.
- Admin and governance documents live in
LifeHub/08_admin.
How To Start
- If you are using LifeHub as a human, read 00_user_guide/README.md.
- If you are operating as an AI agent, load Tier-A Core first, then use the Context Directory to select the route-specific workspace.
- If the request is only to acclimate or orient and no concrete task is given, stop after Tier-A Core.
- Load the Context Index, master index, active state, system state, session logs, lessons, or skills only when the route or task explicitly triggers them.
- Work from the relevant project, system, spec, or app folder instead of keeping important logic only in chat.
