Hivemind Goals

Create, track, resume and close team goals and tasks as Markdown files in the Deeplake virtual filesystem under memory/goal/.

AutomationIntermediate★ 1,621⑂ 113AI score 8/10Last updated: Sep 28, 2026

What it does

  • Fires on goal/task language ("track X", "add a todo", "remind me to fix Y") and writes a file to ~/.deeplake/memory/goal/<owner>/<status>/<uuid>.md.
  • Treats the path as the source of truth: owner, status (opened/in_progress/closed) and goal id live in the path, so a single mv changes status or reassigns ownership, and rm is a soft-close with audit history.
  • Captures parked side-tasks with hivemind goal add --agent capture, storing Start here / Files / Branch / Run / Why so a future session can resume cold with zero re-explaining.
  • Every write lands in the shared hivemind_goals table, so teammates see your goals with no explicit sharing step.

Who it's for

  • Teams already running Activeloop Hivemind with the Deeplake VFS mounted.
  • Developers who lose context between agent sessions and want resumable work items.
  • People who prefer filesystem-native task tracking over a separate SaaS tool.

Examples

  1. "Goal: ship 5 PRs this week" → generates a UUID and writes the goal into opened/.
  2. "Remind me to add rate limiting to the webhook handler later" → stores a capture task with files, branch and test command.
  3. "Let's pick up that parked task" → goal get restores the full context, then mv promotes it to in_progress/.
