After the sad demise of Slack workflows on the HC Slack, I moved what used to be a custom workflow here. It started as a simple bot that would listen to my DMs and forward them to a specific channel, as well as allow me to send things to CDN to get uploaded, but now it's much more..

The latest features have brought her a full AI assistant capabilities w/ Hack Club AI behind, with memory storage in Upstash Vector DB. There's also a separate consciousness simulation layer in n8n (sleep, dreams, world simulation, prompt updating...)

• AI assistant for myself
• Custom CDN on Appwrite
• Daily summary message with HackaTime coding stats
• Notifications for new channel members
• Ping group for new channel members
• Yap replies and follow-ups
• Web UI with Appwrite auth + conversation threads
• Consciousness simulation (n8n) with sleep/dream cycles, autonomous action loop, emotional state, and self-updating identity prompt

1. Clone the repository.
2. Install dependencies:

   pnpm install

   pnpm web:install
3. Configure Environment Variables:
   • Rename .env.example to .env.
   • Fill in all required environment variables in the .env file.
   • Copy web/.env.example to web/.env.local and fill it too.
