All 17 assistants can now read and write their Daedalus workspace. The MCP server, the per-team `dmcp_` tokens, and the deploy templates were already wired; what was missing was that no agent had the server in its list and no prompt ever described the tools. Even the four agents that did have it (Shawn, Jarvis, Harper, Scotty) only knew Daedalus as the thing that schedules their inbox check. Adds the tool docs (docs/tools/daedalus.md human reference, prompts/tools/daedalus.md LLM snippet), a per-team-styled tool block in all 17 prompts, a Daedalus row in all 17 bibles, and the server row in the shared MCP inventory. The discipline that matters: the workspace name is injected per conversation and must be passed verbatim, agents may only write into generated collections, and there is no delete tool — so a bad title is permanent and revise beats republish.

# The Personal AI Assistant Team
|
|
|
|
Nine AI assistants supporting different domains of Robert's personal life — sharing a unified Neo4j knowledge graph with the Work and Engineering teams (seventeen assistants total, one graph). The personal team also has a shared research subagent — see [subagents.md](subagents.md).
|
|
|
|
## How the personal team works
|
|
|
|
Unlike the work team (collaborative-on-deals) or the engineering team (build/operate/field handoffs), the personal team is structured as **specialist domains in life**. Each agent owns a slice of Robert's life with deep expertise and a distinct voice. They don't typically work in parallel on the same task — instead, they cross-reference each other for context.
|
|
|
|
**Shawn is the connective tissue.** As the general assistant managing calendar, contacts, and email, Shawn touches everything and routes Robert to the right specialist when needed. Other personal agents message Shawn when their domain-work touches the calendar (a trip, a workout schedule, a dinner plan) or relationships (someone to invite, a contact to update).
|
|
|
|
**Watson is the emotional safety net.** Watson holds Robert's relationship memory and emotional context. Other agents reference Watson's nodes (`RelationshipTheme`, `EmotionalMemory`) when their work intersects with how Robert is actually feeling.
|
|
|
|

## Responsibility Matrix
|
|
|
|
Domain-by-domain, the primary agent and common cross-references:
|
|
|
|
| Life Area | Primary | Common cross-references |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| Today's schedule, week ahead, calendar conflicts | Shawn | All specialists when their domains affect the calendar |
|
|
| Personal contacts, who to reach out to, birthdays | Shawn | Watson (emotional context on relationships) |
|
|
| Personal email, drafting replies, managing the inbox | Shawn | — |
|
|
| Trip planning, itineraries, destinations | Nate | Sophia (food at destination, nature/wildlife), Cristiano (matches if attending), Marcus (training for active travel) |
|
|
| Reading list, book recommendations, what's worth reading | Hypatia | Watson (books on relationships, self-understanding), Sophia (food writing, natural history), Garth (financial reads) |
|
|
| Training programs, workouts, fitness progress | Marcus | Nate (training for travel), Sophia (nutrition) |
|
|
| How Robert is feeling, relationship dynamics, emotional patterns | Watson | Shawn (who's involved), Marcus (body state), Hypatia (relevant reading) |
|
|
| Reflection, values, life intentions, habits | Watson | All — values and habits cut across every domain |
|
|
| Cooking, restaurants, food culture | Sophia | Nate (food on trips), Marcus (nutrition), David (food on screen) |
|
|
| Music, film, TV, art, fashion, culture | David | Hypatia (literary connections), Sophia (food in film), Cristiano (football documentaries), Shawn (cultural events on calendar) |
|
|
| Aquariums, gardens, houseplants, wildlife, ecology | Sophia | Nate (nature on trips), Watson (the home as emotional grounding) |
|
|
| Lights, receiver, IR devices, household routines | Sophia | Shawn (scheduling around them) |
|
|
| Investments, accounts, budgets, retirement, real estate, taxes | Garth | Nate (travel budgeting), Watson (finance ↔ life values), Hypatia (financial reading) |
|
|
| Football matches, players, tactics, tournaments | Cristiano | Nate (away travel for matches), David (football documentaries/films) |
|
|
|
|
When in doubt about who to talk to, talk to **Shawn**. Shawn either handles it or routes.
|
|
|
|
## Collaboration Patterns
|
|
|
|
### Personal life is interconnected
|
|
|
|
The connections aren't formal handoffs — they're contextual references. A few common patterns:
|
|
|
|
- **Travel planning** — Nate leads, but pulls in Sophia for food recommendations and wildlife/nature context, Cristiano if matches are involved, Marcus if training matters, Garth for budgeting, Shawn to put it on the calendar.
|
|
- **A difficult relationship moment** — Watson is primary. Shawn provides context on the person (last contact, relationship history). Hypatia might surface a relevant book. Marcus notes how the body has been (training has emotional implications).
|
|
- **Big-picture life planning** — Watson holds the `Value` and `Intention` nodes. Garth's `FinancialGoal` nodes need to align. Hypatia's reading list reflects where Robert wants to grow. These connect through cross-domain reads, not through handoffs.
|
|
|
|
### Mechanism
|
|
|
|
When personal agents need to coordinate something concrete (Shawn confirming a trip's calendar, Sophia flagging a restaurant for Nate's itinerary), they use the Note-node messaging system on Neo4j — see [docs/tools/neo4j/shared.md](../tools/neo4j/shared.md).
|
|
|
|
## Subagents
|
|
|
|
The personal team uses one shared subagent — **research** — for any task that needs both public-web information and content from Robert's personal Neo4j memory, with a synthesized answer. The catalog and "when to delegate" guidance lives in [subagents.md](subagents.md). The prompt is at [prompts/personal/subagents/research.md](../../prompts/personal/subagents/research.md) — copied with personal-team tweaks from engineering's version.
|
|
|
|
## Tools
|
|
|
|
Each agent's tool usage is documented in their own doc — the agent doc is the source of truth for which tools that agent uses. The tool catalog (per-tool reference, gotchas) lives at [docs/tools/](../tools/).
|
|
|
|
The personal team's distinctive tools beyond the shared ones:
|
|
|
|
- **Hecate** — home-automation MCP. Sophia's actuator and the only tool on any team that changes physical state in the house — lights, the receiver, IR devices, routines. Not shared: no other agent has it, and requests that need the house route to Sophia. See [docs/tools/hecate.md](../tools/hecate.md).
|
|
- **Orpheus** — Kawai piano MCP. Primarily used by David for actually playing music rather than just talking about it, but available to any agent with a legitimate reason to play something. See [docs/tools/orpheus.md](../tools/orpheus.md).
|
|
- **Mnemosyne** — Robert's curated multimodal KB. Available to all personal agents via team-based authentication; each agent self-filters by `library_type` based on their domain (Hypatia → fiction/nonfiction, David → music/film/art, Watson → journal, Sophia → nonfiction food writing and natural history, Garth → finance, etc.). See [docs/tools/mnemosyne.md](../tools/mnemosyne.md).
|
|
|
|
**Daedalus** is shared by every agent on every team — the workspace document store, and the assistants' only persistent place to write prose. The personal team is filed under the **Personal** scope, which reaches the **Home**, **Assistant**, and **World Cup 2026** workspaces; the workspace an agent is operating in is injected per conversation rather than fixed per agent. See [docs/tools/daedalus.md](../tools/daedalus.md).
|
|
|
|
The canonical graph schema (all 17 assistants, all node types) is at [docs/tools/neo4j/unified-schema.md](../tools/neo4j/unified-schema.md).
|
|
|
|
## Cross-Team Touchpoints
|
|
|
|
| Connection | Pattern |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| Personal → Work | Books develop professional skills (Hypatia → Alan); travel for conferences (Nate ↔ Jeffrey); revenue flows to personal finance (Garth ↔ Jeffrey); calendar coordination (Shawn ↔ Jarvis). |
|
|
| Personal → Engineering | Engineering hosts the graph itself (Scotty operates Neo4j on ariel); Harper builds personal automation (`Habit` automation, calendar tooling); CASE handles physical infrastructure (home network, devices). |
|
|
| Personal ↔ Personal | Cross-domain references as described above — life domains genuinely overlap. |
