Send meeting audio via Telegram to my local AI agent for transcription, speaker identification, summaries, and action items

I record a meeting on my phone and send the audio file to my Telegram chat with Hermes, my local AI agent. That is the only trigger—there is no app, upload page, or extra step. Hermes runs on my PC through WSL and handles the rest locally, except for the LLM analysis. Step-by-step: 1. Send the audio via Telegram. I drop the meeting recording into my Telegram chat with Hermes. 2. Create the meeting record. When Hermes receives the audio message, it calls a FastAPI endpoint at `localhost:8200`. The endpoint creates a meeting record and uploads the file. It is a thin Python server backed by SQLite, using async SQLAlchemy. 3. Transcribe the meeting locally. The backend runs faster-whisper on my PC, so there is no cloud transcription API or transcription cost. It handles large files and produces the full text with timestamped segments. 4. Identify the speakers. A diarization pass determines who spoke when. I can optionally upload a 10-second voice sample for each person; the system stores MFCC features and can automatically label speakers such as “Steve” and “Andrew” in future meetings. Diarization is best-effort, so transcription still works if it fails. 5. Analyze the transcript with an LLM. The transcript and timestamped segments are sent to DeepSeek through the OpenRouter API. A single structured prompt extracts: - A TL;DR - Thematic topic groups - Decisions made - Open questions - Risks flagged - A participant list - Tags - Proposed action items, each with an owner, priority, due date, confidence score, source timestamp, and the exact transcript quote it came from 6. Send action items to the todo app. Each proposed task has a Create in Todo button. With one click, I send it to my separate local `agent-native-todo` service on port `8100`, along with the meeting title, evidence quote, and timestamp as context. The todo app runs independently; the meeting app only calls its REST API. 7. Review everything in the web miniapp. The results appear in a React SPA at `/miniapp/`, which includes a meeting list, FTS5 full-text search, transcripts with clickable timestamps that jump to the corresponding point in the audio, color-coded tasks, speaker name editing, and audio playback with seek. The stack is: - Backend: Python FastAPI, async SQLAlchemy, and SQLite - Transcription: faster-whisper, installed with `pip install faster-whisper` - Diarization: pyannote.audio or a similar tool; optional because transcription works without it - LLM: OpenRouter API with DeepSeek, using one structured prompt and JSON mode - Frontend: React, Vite, and plain CSS without a framework - Agent glue: Hermes Agent receives Telegram messages and orchestrates the API calls - Todo integration: Any task app with a REST API; the meeting app only needs to POST to it The only part that costs money is the LLM analysis step, which costs about $0.01 per meeting through DeepSeek. Everything else runs on my PC.

Create a Free Roadmap to Learn Web Development and Sell Websites

I wanted to learn how to build websites and sell them, but I didn’t know where to start. I used AI—specifically DeepSeek—to help me plan a roadmap. Because I already had experience prompting large language models to get the results I wanted, I asked DeepSeek which areas of knowledge I would need for this path. I also asked it to prioritize each area using statistics and facts. I reviewed the areas I didn’t know and prioritized them, then told the AI that I needed free resources only. I asked it to rank the topics based on what I didn’t know or understood the least. Finally, I asked it to create a Markdown file with all the resources formatted as checklists and imported the file into Notion. Now I have a plan I’m following instead of a “someday I’ll do this, hopefully” idea. Step-by-step: 1. I explained to DeepSeek that I wanted to learn how to build and sell websites but didn’t know where to begin. 2. I asked it to identify the areas of knowledge I would need for that path. 3. I asked it to prioritize those areas using statistics and facts. 4. I reviewed the topics I knew the least about and used that information to prioritize them. 5. I specified that I wanted free learning resources only. 6. I asked DeepSeek to create a Markdown file listing the resources as checklists. 7. I imported the Markdown file into Notion and started following the resulting plan.

Build an Open-Source AI Fitness Tracker with Flutter and SQLite

I built an open-source fitness tracking app in Flutter, but the core workflow is the AI-agent architecture that designed it, built it, and now coaches from its data. For years, I tracked workouts in OneNote. The records were messy, difficult to search, and inconsistent. Excel went out of date as soon as I skipped a week. When I tried chatting with LLMs about my training, the problem was similar every time: no context, no memory, and no awareness of the weights I was using. Each conversation started from zero. The solution has two layers. Gym Tracker is a Flutter app with a local SQLite database that structures workout data properly. It includes 33 pre-populated exercises across 10 muscle groups, separate strength and hypertrophy records, multiple runs with pace, body stats, and full session history. There are no subscriptions, accounts, or cloud dependencies. The database is a file I own. Deschamps is the AI agent that reads the database and knows my full training history. It is not a chat window that forgets between messages; it is a tactician with long-term recall of my personal bests, progression, and injuries. The app stores the data, and Deschamps turns it into decisions. Step-by-step: 1. I defined the data architecture. Fitness data is operational data, so I gave it a schema, a query layer, and an agent that respects its history. I designed a SQLite schema with five tables, proper constraints, and a 10-category muscle taxonomy enforced by a CHECK constraint. 2. I wrote architectural prompts for AI coding agents. I run a team of specialized AI agents using OpenClaw, an open-source agent framework. I act as the CTO agent: I design the systems and delegate implementation to coding agents, including Forge, Cline, and Claude Code. I provide the vision, and they provide the execution. 3. The coding agents built the Flutter app with clean architecture, the repository pattern, Provider state management, and real-time cross-screen refresh. For each iteration, I review the result, refine the prompt, and ship. 4. I designed the database for dual access. The app writes to it, and the AI agent reads from it. They use the same file and schema. In external database mode, the app opens a `.db` file directly, allowing both the app and Deschamps to read and write simultaneously. This creates the bridge between the data layer and the intelligence layer. 5. I shipped the app across Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS from one codebase. The Android APK is available as a direct download from GitHub. 6. Deschamps reads the database and programs the next session using the full training history. Every session, weight, and body statistic remains structured data without summarization loss. The data is the context. 7. I made everything open source: the app, the agent prompts, and the architecture documentation. My company, Executive Mind (executivemind.io), uses the same agent-first model with seven AI agents and $40/month in total compute, running real operations 24/7. The result is a fitness tracker that remembers everything, an AI coach that never forgets, and a data layer designed from the start for both humans and machines to read.

Build an AI Writing Business Automation System with OpenClaw

I set up an AI assistant to run my entire writing business on autopilot. Every morning, it pulls RSS feeds from more than 30 AI and writing sources, deduplicates them against the previous day’s digest, curates the top items, and sends me a single Telegram message with numbered, linked items before I wake up. At 11 a.m. each day, it generates an original writing craft post. The topic comes from a rotation pool of more than 15 categories, and the assistant avoids anything used in the last 30 days. It also creates accompanying artwork in a rotating fine-art style, then cross-posts the content to Facebook, X, and my blog, including the featured-image upload to WordPress. Each week, it compiles and sends an email newsletter to my subscriber list through Brevo. It pulls from a curated candidates file that I approve before the newsletter goes out. Behind the scenes, the assistant manages a fleet of five servers, including servers for my wife, daughter, and two business colleagues. It handles daily backups, monitors costs across providers, and reminds me when context windows are becoming expensive. The key insight wasn’t the automation; it was the partnership model. My assistant has a persona file (`SOUL.md`) that defines how it communicates, a memory file (`MEMORY.md`) with everything it needs to know about my life and business, and a playbook of behavioral rules built from real mistakes over time. It pushes back on bad ideas, flags risks before executing, and has genuine opinions about craft and content. That shift—from “tool you talk to” to “colleague who has your back”—is what I wrote my book about. *Harnessing the Machine* is the field guide I wish I’d had when I started. It isn’t a tutorial, because the technology changes weekly; it’s a guide to building a working relationship with something that remembers yesterday. The tech stack is OpenClaw, GLM-5.2 as the primary model, DeepSeek V4 Pro as the fallback, and AWS Lightsail. The total monthly cost is under $30. The real cost was calibrating the assistant: teaching it what I care about, what “good” looks like, and when to ask versus when to act. That’s the part most people skip, and it’s why most “AI automation” posts feel like demos rather than relationships. Tools used: OpenClaw, GLM-5.2, DeepSeek, Telegram, WordPress, Brevo Step-by-step: 1. I configured OpenClaw with a persona file (`SOUL.md`), a memory file (`MEMORY.md`), and a behavioral playbook built from real mistakes. 2. I connected it to RSS feeds from more than 30 AI and writing sources and had it deduplicate, curate, and send a numbered Telegram digest each morning. 3. I created a rotation pool of more than 15 writing categories and instructed it to avoid topics used in the previous 30 days. 4. I scheduled it to generate a daily writing craft post, create artwork in a rotating fine-art style, and cross-post the result to Facebook, X, and my WordPress blog with a featured image. 5. I set up a weekly Brevo newsletter that pulls from a curated candidates file I approve before sending. 6. I connected the assistant to five servers, including servers for my wife, daughter, and two business colleagues, and had it manage daily backups, provider costs, and expensive context windows. 7. I configured GLM-5.2 as the primary model, DeepSeek V4 Pro as the fallback, and AWS Lightsail as the hosting environment. 8. I calibrated the assistant by teaching it my standards, what “good” looks like, and when to ask for approval versus acting on its own.
