✅ Built the first version of a personal AI chief of staff on GitHub Copilot's VS Code agent framework
✅ Designed a kitchen hierarchy orchestration model with 7 specialized subagents
✅ Established the mind palace memory architecture that v2 would build on
What is this project about?
MILO v1 — Mike's Intelligent Life Orchestrator — was the first version of my personal AI chief of staff, built on GitHub Copilot's VS Code agent framework.
The architecture was a kitchen hierarchy model: MILO sat at the top as Chef de Cuisine, delegating every task to specialized Chefs de Partie — dedicated subagents for Apple Calendar, Notion, context engineering, planning, macOS operations, and Git. MILO never executed directly; it orchestrated.
Memory was managed through a mind palace — a structured set of markdown files containing preferences, behavioral rules, and project context — backed by GitHub artifacts. It was the foundation for everything that came next.
The kitchen hierarchy model worked well for delegation but exposed a key limitation: the agent framework couldn't maintain context across sessions — everything had to be re-loaded on every run
Building v1 clarified what I actually needed from a personal AI system, which made v2 architecture decisions obvious
