What you need

English | Nederlands

An AI program that can reach the files on your computer. The vault is a folder on your own computer. The ordinary chat in your browser (claude.ai, chatgpt.com, gemini.google.com, chat.mistral.ai) runs in the cloud and cannot reach it.

You use Program Where to find it Subscription
Claude Claude Code In the Claude app for Mac or Windows (Code tab), or standalone: claude.com/claude-code Claude Pro or higher
ChatGPT Codex or the ChatGPT desktop app The Codex app or the terminal program: developers.openai.com/codex ChatGPT Plus or higher
Gemini Gemini CLI geminicli.com Free with a Google account, more with a subscription
Mistral Mistral Vibe docs.mistral.ai/mistral-vibe Mistral account

Tested with Claude Code. Codex, ChatGPT desktop, Gemini CLI and Mistral Vibe have not been tested yet.

What each program supports

Environment Support in this package
Claude Code Claude plugin, or installation as separate skills
Codex local (desktop or CLI) Plugin manifest, or installation as separate skills
ChatGPT desktop with local execution Plugin package with guided setup; file access required
ChatGPT web, mobile or cloud No access to the local vault; this version is marked Desktop only

The OpenAI package follows the plugin structure and the Desktop only setting. The package contains no MCP server.

Also

  • Python for the weekly check. Node.js and npx are optional, only for other extensions that need them. If you do not have them, /kennis-tooling helps you install them. You do not need to know anything about them.
  • Optional: Obsidian (free, obsidian.md). It lets you browse the vault as a clickable notebook. Everything also works without Obsidian.

Next: Installation.
