Vibes

Culture you've lived.

Vibes tracks the albums, podcasts, shows, films, and YouTube channels that shaped how you think. Your cultural context becomes part of your intelligence layer — surfaced when it's relevant, used to find shared ground with people, and available to your agent when making recommendations.

Logging something you just finished

You
Just finished Succession — genuinely one of the best things I've watched.
AI
Jesse Armstrong, 2018–2023. Rating?
You
5/5. It's the sharpest thing I've seen on how power and family dysfunction interact. The last season was perfect.
AI
Saved in shows/ — tagged #drama #power #family #darkcomedy. Note captured. Anything else worth keeping from it?

Finding shared taste with someone you know

AI
Quick note — Marco mentioned Succession in his last message to you. You both have it rated 5/5. You've never discussed it directly.
You
Oh nice, I didn't know he watched it.
AI
Want me to add a note on his Peeps file? Something like: "Both love Succession — good conversation territory."
You
Yes, do that.

Getting a recommendation from your taste

You
I want something to listen to on a long flight — something smart but not exhausting.
AI
Based on what you've rated highly: you tend to love long-form interviews with builders — Lex Fridman, Invest Like the Best, and The Tim Ferriss Show are all in your podcasts/ folder with notes. You also have Radiohead's OK Computer and Nick Cave's Skeleton Tree at 5/5 in albums/ if you want something quieter.
You
The podcast angle sounds right. Any specific episodes?
AI
You flagged the Lex Fridman episode with Jensen Huang — your note: "Best 3 hours on what it means to build a company over decades." That's your own recommendation to yourself.

Questions & answers

Why not just use Spotify or Netflix history?

Those are algorithmic feeds optimised for consumption, not memory. They don't have your notes, your ratings, your reasons. They don't know that you and a friend both love the same show. Vibes is personal context, not a streaming history.

What counts as a vibe?

Albums, podcasts, shows, and films — anything cultural you'd mention to someone, that changed how you think, or that you'd want to find again. If you'd forget about it without logging it, it probably belongs here.

Do I need to rate and note everything?

No — log what's worth logging. A 5-star album with a note is far more useful than 200 half-remembered titles. If something didn't stick, it probably doesn't need to be here.

How does the taste profile work?

It's not a dashboard — the agent notices patterns as you add things. Over time it can say things like "you tend to rate slow, introspective albums highest" or "you've logged 12 tech podcasts this year". Useful context, surfaced when relevant.

Can it work across Peeps and Vibes together?

Yes — when you note shared taste with someone in your network, it links the vibe file to their Peeps file. Your agent can then surface things like: "You and Priya both love this director. You've never talked about it."
