PersonalOps — Founder Intelligence Platform (FIP) — Repo Digest
The producer at the heart of the Intelligence Platform layer, and the home of the existing Intelligence Dashboard. Platform-level view (4 architecture diagrams, subsystem map) lives in architecture/intelligence-platform.md.
What it is
A structured knowledge-management platform — the Founder Intelligence Platform (FIP) — that “extracts,
stores, and retrieves actionable intelligence from a multi-venture founder’s knowledge estate. It
transforms unstructured markdown documents and ad-hoc intelligence captures into a queryable,
AI-accessible asset library.” (docs/founder-intelligence-platform/01-architecture.md). PersonalOps also
hosts the Intelligence Dashboard (a TanStack Router app rendering markdown + Supabase asset sections).
Why it exists
“The layer between raw knowledge documents and the AI agents and workflows that use that knowledge to produce output.” A founder accumulates intelligence continuously but loses it inside un-queryable documents. FIP makes every material insight a retrievable, scoped asset an AI agent can pull on demand — and publishes distilled intelligence as versioned products for downstream apps. Its hardest problem is capture, not retrieval (Principle 9: capture first).

Business capability provided
Founder intelligence as a queryable, AI-accessible asset library — turning scattered knowledge into scoped, maturity-gated intelligence that both the founder and AI agents can retrieve, and into published intelligence products downstream ventures consume.
Technical responsibilities
- Own the canonical intelligence store (
knowledge_assets) — one place, no duplication (Principle 4). - Run capture → stage → human-approve → structure workflows across all sources.
- Run the extraction/harvest pipeline (docs → candidates).
- Provide scoped retrieval via the
search_assets()RPC. - Render the Intelligence Dashboard (markdown + Supabase asset sections; Principle 11).
- Author intelligence packs (via builder skills) for publication to
intelproducts. - Explicitly not: auto-approve, write markdown directly, or act as a public/multi-tenant product.
Core concepts
| Concept | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Knowledge estate | The founder’s corpus of markdown docs + captures — the input source. |
| Knowledge asset | A structured, scoped, maturity-gated record in knowledge_assets — the canonical intelligence. |
| Maturity | working → ready → proven → archived; only ready/proven are external-facing (Principle 3). |
| Scope dimensions | venture · industry · market · capability · use-case (independent lookup tables, many-to-many). |
| Human approval | Mandatory gate to any asset — no auto-approve path (Principle 2). |
| Markdown ⇄ Supabase boundary | Documents = narrative context; assets = structured retrieval (never conflate). |
Key workflows
- Capture — manual form / voice / article / agent research / legacy KB → staging queues.
- Harvest/extract — scripts turn documents into
harvest_candidates. - Review & approve — founder approves each candidate/capture (mandatory).
- Structure — approved intelligence becomes a scoped, maturity-tagged
knowledge_asset. - Retrieve —
search_assets()filters by type/maturity/scope/free-text for 8 retrieval use cases (proposal gen, marketing, strategy, solution design, opportunity eval, agent context injection, lead qualification, website assessment). - Synthesise & publish — builder skills author versioned packs to
intelproducts.
Technologies used
- Data: Supabase (PostgreSQL) —
knowledge_assets+ 5 lookup + 5 join + staging + registry tables +search_assets()RPC; RLS. - App/UI: TanStack Router + TanStack Query, TypeScript (
src/lib/ka.ts,src/routes/ka.*.tsx). - Pipelines: Node/JS harvest & extraction scripts (
harvest-os.js,extract-pdf.js,capability-harvest/,estate-map.mjs). - Content: Git markdown (
content-intelligence/,docs/). - Retrieval is FTS for MVP; vector/pgvector is post-MVP (non-goal now).

Downstream consumers
intelproducts— receives the published packs this platform authors.leadplatform,outreachagent— consume packs (downstream of intelproducts). (Layer 4.)OpenClaw— planned programmatic consumer (FIP Phase 5, not started).- The founder’s ventures (Inexis Digital, Consulting, Inbound Lanka, City Retreats) via retrieval.
Major interfaces & integration points
- Consumes: knowledge estate (read-only), Supabase, Shared Skills.
- Exposes:
search_assets()RPC (scoped retrieval); the Intelligence Dashboard; published intelligence packs (tointelproducts);doc_update_suggestions(suggested, human-applied — never auto-written).
Reusable assets exposed to other repositories
- The published intelligence packs (via
intelproducts) — the primary reusable output. - The knowledge model + Supabase schema (a reusable pattern for founder/knowledge intelligence).
- The Intelligence Dashboard rendering model (markdown + asset + hybrid sections).
Architectural decisions
FIP records ADRs in docs/founder-intelligence-platform/06-decisions.md and 11 architectural principles in
01-architecture.md. The portal-level modelling decision is ADR 0003.
Several FIP principles seed the ecosystem Architecture Principles
(intelligence-over-documents, human-approval-mandatory, one-canonical-store).

Current maturity
Early-development. Rationale (evidence): FIP design is v1.0, approved, June 2026; Phase 0 is
complete (Supabase migration + seed + TS foundation, harvest/extraction scripts, estate-map, dashboard
markdown rendering). Phases 1–5 are not started (asset library, capture, review queue, harvest UI, AI
classification, legacy migration, agent ingestion + OpenClaw). So the design and foundation exist and some
pipeline code runs, but the core product surfaces are unbuilt. (Source: .../README.md status table.)
Roadmap
Phase 1 asset library + capture + review queue → Phase 2 document harvest + coverage dashboard → Phase 3
AI classification + doc-update suggestions → Phase 4 legacy migration → Phase 5 agent ingestion + OpenClaw
integration. Post-MVP: asset relationships graph, pgvector semantic search, automated doc updates,
third-party source ingestion. (Source: 01-architecture.md Future Evolution + README phases.)
Known limitations
- Core product surfaces (capture, review, harvest UI, classification) not yet built (Phases 1–5).
- Retrieval is FTS-only for MVP; no semantic search, no asset relationship graph yet (explicit non-goals).
- Single-founder, private tool — no multi-tenant, no public API.
- Hermes learning loop and OpenClaw integration are future, not implemented.
Future opportunities
- Complete the capture→retrieve loop to realise the “capture first” thesis.
- Add the Hermes feedback loop to close intelligence quality on real outcomes.
- Semantic search + relationship graph once the asset library reaches scale (≥200 assets).
Relationship to the wider AI venture ecosystem
The producer of the Intelligence Platform (layer 2): it consumes Shared Skills (layer 1), publishes intelligence products (intelproducts, layer 3), and feeds Applications & Agents (leadplatform, outreachagent — layer 4) and the founder’s Ventures (layer 5).
