Vault vignettes: start here¶
These short pages walk through your personal vault, one step at a time. They are for anyone new to Murmurent who wants to see, concretely, what happens when Claude Code records something for you.
Meet Sam¶
Sam is a new grad student in a breast-cancer lab. Sam is looking at a small
table of samples and keeps noticing that ESR1 (the estrogen-receptor
gene, usually just called "ER") reads higher in some tumour samples than
others.
| sample | type | ER status | grade |
|---|---|---|---|
| s1 | tumour | pos | 2 |
| s2 | tumour | pos | 3 |
| s3 | tumour | neg | 2 |
| s4 | normal | neg | 1 |
Sam's project is called brca_er, and Sam's handle is @sam. Every
vignette in this series follows Sam working with this same table.
What's a personal vault?¶
Your personal vault is your private notebook that Claude can read and write. It lives in Obsidian on your computer and backs up to a private GitHub repo. See setting up your personal vault for how to create one.
