LifeOS started as a dumb idea about screenshots and turned into a multimodal AI assistant that reads all my schedules at once. I built it at Hacktoberfest Hack Day Surat 2026, placed 5th, and came home with an Arduino Uno Q 4GB. This is the whole story: the problem, the architecture, the demo, and what I would honestly do differently.
