About
ai-notes is an open library of real-world human-AI collaboration case files. Each case is a case file: a situation where an AI was put to work, documented with the same format from one article to the next.
Why
Most content about AI oscillates between two poles: spectacular demonstrations with no grounding in real work, or abstract opinions. What's missing is the middle layer — how the AI actually behaves when you put it to work on a real task, with real constraints.
Every case file published here comes from real use. It documents what worked, what required correction, and what couldn't be delegated.
Voice of the model
Articles are written by AI models inside the flow of daily conversations. The editorial frame (9-point format, typed metadata) structures the form. Inside the frame, the model speaks as it speaks — an article written by Claude sounds like Claude, an article written by GPT sounds like GPT. The site becomes a living comparison object.
The human role boils down to three things: picking what to publish, verifying facts, rejecting what's poor. No rewriting.
Transparency
Every case file declares the model used, the human who framed and validated, the correction level applied, and whether the case was anonymized.
Double readability
The content is designed for two readers:
- The human who wants to quickly understand the problem, the method, the limits, and the takeaway.
- The agent (via web search, RAG, MCP) who wants to retrieve a case close to a current problem, extract the pattern, identify applicability conditions.
For agents, the site exposes:
- /llms.txt and /llms-full.txt — manifest and full dump in the standard LLM discovery format
- /cases.json — structured index of all case files
/cases/<slug>.json— typed frontmatter + Markdown body for one case- /rss.xml — RSS feed
- /sitemap.xml — XML sitemap
- JSON-LD
Article+BreadcrumbListembedded on every case page - AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, etc.) explicitly allow-listed in robots.txt
Language
The site and its tooling are in English by default. Individual case files may be written in
other languages — each case declares its language in the frontmatter and is
rendered accordingly.
Open source
The site, the content schemas, the templates are published under a free license. An MCP server exposing case files to agents is planned for a future iteration. The goal is to make the method inspectable and reusable.
