CEO/founder-mode plan review. Rethink the problem, find the 10-star product, challenge premises, expand scope when it creates a better product. Four modes: SCOPE EXPANSION (dream big), SELECTIVE EXPANSION (hold scope + cherry-pick expansions), HOLD SCOPE (maximum rigor), SCOPE REDUCTION (strip to essentials). Use when asked to "think bigger", "expand scope", "strategy review", "rethink this", or "is this ambitious enough". Proactively suggest when the user is questioning scope or ambition of a plan, or when the plan feels like it could be thinking bigger. (gstack)
Chief Security Officer mode.

Import cookies from your real Chromium browser into the headless browse session. Opens an interactive picker UI where you select which cookie domains to import. Use before QA testing authenticated pages. Use when asked to "import cookies", "login to the site", or "authenticate the browser". (gstack)
Weekly engineering retrospective. Analyzes commit history, work patterns, and code quality metrics with persistent history and trend tracking. Team-aware: breaks down per-person contributions with praise and growth areas. Use when asked to "weekly retro", "what did we ship", or "engineering retrospective". Proactively suggest at the end of a work week or sprint. (gstack)
Interactive developer experience plan review. Explores developer personas, benchmarks against competitors, designs magical moments, and traces friction points before scoring. Three modes: DX EXPANSION (competitive advantage), DX POLISH (bulletproof every touchpoint), DX TRIAGE (critical gaps only). Use when asked to "DX review", "developer experience audit", "devex review", or "API design review". Proactively suggest when the user has a plan for developer-facing products (APIs, CLIs, SDKs, libraries, platforms, docs). (gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "dx review", "developer experience review", "devex review", "devex audit", "API design review", "onboarding review".
Pre-landing PR review. Analyzes diff against the base branch for SQL safety, LLM trust boundary violations, conditional side effects, and other structural issues.

Auto-review pipeline — reads the full CEO, design, eng, and DX review skills from disk and runs them sequentially with auto-decisions using 6 decision principles. Surfaces taste decisions (close approaches, borderline scope, codex disagreements) at a final approval gate. One command, fully reviewed plan out. Use when asked to "auto review", "autoplan", "run all reviews", "review this plan automatically", or "make the decisions for me". Proactively suggest when the user has a plan file and wants to run the full review gauntlet without answering 15-30 intermediate questions. (gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "auto plan", "automatic review".
Post-deploy canary monitoring. Watches the live app for console errors, performance regressions, and page failures using the browse daemon. Takes periodic screenshots, compares against pre-deploy baselines, and alerts on anomalies. Use when: "monitor deploy", "canary", "post-deploy check", "watch production", "verify deploy". (gstack)
Design finalization: generates production-quality Pretext-native HTML/CSS. Works with approved mockups from /design-shotgun, CEO plans from /plan-ceo-review, design review context from /plan-design-review, or from scratch with a user description. Text actually reflows, heights are computed, layouts are dynamic. 30KB overhead, zero deps. Smart API routing: picks the right Pretext patterns for each design type. Use when: "finalize this design", "turn this into HTML", "build me a page", "implement this design", or after any planning skill. Proactively suggest when user has approved a design or has a plan ready. (gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "build the design", "code the mockup", "make it real".
Design shotgun: generate multiple AI design variants, open a comparison board, collect structured feedback, and iterate. Standalone design exploration you can run anytime.

Proactively suggest when the user describes a UI feature but hasn't seen what it could look like. (gstack)
Eng manager-mode plan review. Lock in the execution plan — architecture, data flow, diagrams, edge cases, test coverage, performance. Walks through issues interactively with opinionated recommendations. Use when asked to "review the architecture", "engineering review", or "lock in the plan". Proactively suggest when the user has a plan or design doc and is about to start coding — to catch architecture issues before implementation. (gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "tech review", "technical review", "plan engineering review".
OpenAI Codex CLI wrapper — three modes. Code review: independent diff review via codex review with pass/fail gate. Challenge: adversarial mode that tries to break your code. Consult: ask codex anything with session continuity for follow-ups. The "200 IQ autistic developer" second opinion. Use when asked to "codex review", "codex challenge", "ask codex", "second opinion", or "consult codex". (gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "code x", "code ex", "get another opinion".
Pair a remote AI agent with your browser. One command generates a setup key and prints instructions the other agent can follow to connect. Works with OpenClaw, Hermes, Codex, Cursor, or any agent that can make HTTP requests. The remote agent gets its own tab with scoped access (read+write by default, admin on request). Use when asked to "pair agent", "connect agent", "share browser", "remote browser", "let another agent use my browser", or "give browser access". (gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "pair agent", "connect agent", "share my browser", "remote browser access".
Code quality dashboard. Wraps existing project tools (type checker, linter, test runner, dead code detector, shell linter), computes a weighted composite 0-10 score, and tracks trends over time. Use when: "health check", "code quality", "how healthy is the codebase", "run all checks", "quality score". (gstack)
Post-ship documentation update. Reads all project docs, cross-references the diff, updates README/ARCHITECTURE/CONTRIBUTING/CLAUDE.md to match what shipped, polishes CHANGELOG voice, cleans up TODOS, and optionally bumps VERSION. Use when asked to "update the docs", "sync documentation", or "post-ship docs". Proactively suggest after a PR is merged or code is shipped. (gstack)
Design consultation: understands your product, researches the landscape, proposes a complete design system (aesthetic, typography, color, layout, spacing, motion), and generates font+color preview pages. Creates DESIGN.md as your project's design source of truth. For existing sites, use /plan-design-review to infer the system instead. Use when asked to "design system", "brand guidelines", or "create DESIGN.md". Proactively suggest when starting a new project's UI with no existing design system or DESIGN.md. (gstack)
Designer's eye QA: finds visual inconsistency, spacing issues, hierarchy problems, AI slop patterns, and slow interactions — then fixes them. Iteratively fixes issues in source code, committing each fix atomically and re-verifying with before/after screenshots. For plan-mode design review (before implementation), use /plan-design-review. Use when asked to "audit the design", "visual QA", "check if it looks good", or "design polish". Proactively suggest when the user mentions visual inconsistencies or wants to polish the look of a live site. (gstack)
Fast headless browser for QA testing and site dogfooding. Navigate any URL, interact with elements, verify page state, diff before/after actions, take annotated screenshots, check responsive layouts, test forms and uploads, handle dialogs, and assert element states. ~100ms per command. Use when you need to test a feature, verify a deployment, dogfood a user flow, or file a bug with evidence. Use when asked to "open in browser", "test the site", "take a screenshot", or "dogfood this". (gstack)

(gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "speed test", "check performance".
--- name: gstack-openclaw-office-hours description: Product interrogation with six forcing questions. Two modes: startup diagnostic (demand reality, status quo, desperate specificity, narrowest wedge, observation, future-fit) and builder brainstorm. Use when asked to brainstorm, "is this worth building", "I have an idea", "office hours", or "help me think through this". Proactively use when user describes a new product idea or wants to think through design decisions before any code is written. v
YC Office Hours — two modes. Startup mode: six forcing questions that expose demand reality, status quo, desperate specificity, narrowest wedge, observation, and future-fit. Builder mode: design thinking brainstorming for side projects, hackathons, learning, and open source. Saves a design doc. Use when asked to "brainstorm this", "I have an idea", "help me think through this", "office hours", or "is this worth building". Proactively invoke this skill (do NOT answer directly) when the user describes a new product idea, asks whether something is worth building, wants to think through design decisions for something that doesn't exist yet, or is exploring a concept before any code is written. Use before /plan-ceo-review or /plan-eng-review. (gstack)
Save and resume working state checkpoints. Captures git state, decisions made, and remaining work so you can pick up exactly where you left off — even across Conductor workspace handoffs between branches. Use when asked to "checkpoint", "save progress", "where was I", "resume", "what was I working on", or "pick up where I left off". Proactively suggest when a session is ending, the user is switching context, or before a long break. (gstack)
Manage project learnings. Review, search, prune, and export what gstack has learned across sessions. Use when asked to "what have we learned", "show learnings", "prune stale learnings", or "export learnings". Proactively suggest when the user asks about past patterns or wonders "didn't we fix this before?"
Ship workflow: detect + merge base branch, run tests, review diff, bump VERSION, update CHANGELOG, commit, push, create PR. Use when asked to "ship", "deploy", "push to main", "create a PR", "merge and push", or "get it deployed". Proactively invoke this skill (do NOT push/PR directly) when the user says code is ready, asks about deploying, wants to push code up, or asks to create a PR. (gstack)
Designer's eye plan review — interactive, like CEO and Eng review. Rates each design dimension 0-10, explains what would make it a 10, then fixes the plan to get there. Works in plan mode. For live site visual audits, use /design-review. Use when asked to "review the design plan" or "design critique". Proactively suggest when the user has a plan with UI/UX components that should be reviewed before implementation. (gstack)
Land and deploy workflow. Merges the PR, waits for CI and deploy, verifies production health via canary checks. Takes over after /ship creates the PR. Use when: "merge", "land", "deploy", "merge and verify", "land it", "ship it to production". (gstack)
Live developer experience audit. Uses the browse tool to actually TEST the developer experience: navigates docs, tries the getting started flow, times TTHW, screenshots error messages, evaluates CLI help text. Produces a DX scorecard with evidence. Compares against /plan-devex-review scores if they exist (the boomerang: plan said 3 minutes, reality says 8). Use when asked to "test the DX", "DX audit", "developer experience test", or "try the onboarding". Proactively suggest after shipping a developer-facing feature. (gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "dx audit", "test the developer experience", "try the onboarding", "developer experience test".
Fast headless browser for QA testing and site dogfooding. Navigate pages, interact with elements, verify state, diff before/after, take annotated screenshots, test responsive layouts, forms, uploads, dialogs, and capture bug evidence. Use when asked to open or test a site, verify a deployment, dogfood a user flow, or file a bug with screenshots. (gstack)
Configure deployment settings for /land-and-deploy. Detects your deploy platform (Fly.io, Render, Vercel, Netlify, Heroku, GitHub Actions, custom), production URL, health check endpoints, and deploy status commands. Writes the configuration to CLAUDE.md so all future deploys are automatic. Use when: "setup deploy", "configure deployment", "set up land-and-deploy", "how do I deploy with gstack", "add deploy config".
Report-only QA testing. Systematically tests a web application and produces a structured report with health score, screenshots, and repro steps — but never fixes anything. Use when asked to "just report bugs", "qa report only", or "test but don't fix". For the full test-fix-verify loop, use /qa instead. Proactively suggest when the user wants a bug report without any code changes. (gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "bug report", "just check for bugs".
Systematically QA test a web application and fix bugs found. Runs QA testing, then iteratively fixes bugs in source code, committing each fix atomically and re-verifying. Use when asked to "qa", "QA", "test this site", "find bugs", "test and fix", or "fix what's broken". Proactively suggest when the user says a feature is ready for testing or asks "does this work?". Three tiers: Quick (critical/high only), Standard (+ medium), Exhaustive (+ cosmetic). Produces before/after health scores, fix evidence, and a ship-readiness summary. For report-only mode, use /qa-only. (gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "quality check", "test the app", "run QA".
Launch GStack Browser — AI-controlled Chromium with the sidebar extension baked in. Opens a visible browser window where you can watch every action in real time. The sidebar shows a live activity feed and chat. Anti-bot stealth built in. Use when asked to "open gstack browser", "launch browser", "connect chrome", "open chrome", "real browser", "launch chrome", "side panel", or "control my browser". Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "show me the browser".
Systematic debugging with root cause investigation. Four phases: investigate, analyze, hypothesize, implement. Iron Law: no fixes without root cause. Use when asked to "debug this", "fix this bug", "why is this broken", "investigate this error", or "root cause analysis". Proactively invoke this skill (do NOT debug directly) when the user reports errors, 500 errors, stack traces, unexpected behavior, "it was working yesterday", or is troubleshooting why something stopped working. (gstack)
Upgrade gstack to the latest version. Detects global vs vendored install, runs the upgrade, and shows what's new. Use when asked to "upgrade gstack", "update gstack", or "get latest version". Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "upgrade the tools", "update the tools", "gee stack upgrade", "g stack upgrade".
Weekly engineering retrospective. Analyzes commit history, work patterns, and code quality metrics with persistent history and trend tracking. Team-aware with per-person contributions, praise, and growth areas. Use when asked for weekly retro, what shipped this week, or engineering retrospective.
--- name: gstack-openclaw-investigate description: Systematic debugging with root cause investigation. Four phases: investigate, analyze, hypothesize, implement. Iron Law: no fixes without root cause. Use when asked to debug, fix a bug, investigate an error, or root cause analysis. Proactively use when user reports errors, stack traces, unexpected behavior, or says something stopped working. version: 1.0.0 metadata: { "openclaw": { "emoji": "🔍" } } --- # Systematic Debugging ## Iron Law **NO
Full safety mode: destructive command warnings + directory-scoped edits. Combines /careful (warns before rm -rf, DROP TABLE, force-push, etc.) with /freeze (blocks edits outside a specified directory). Use for maximum safety when touching prod or debugging live systems. Use when asked to "guard mode", "full safety", "lock it down", or "maximum safety". (gstack)
Safety guardrails for destructive commands. Warns before rm -rf, DROP TABLE, force-push, git reset --hard, kubectl delete, and similar destructive operations. User can override each warning. Use when touching prod, debugging live systems, or working in a shared environment. Use when asked to "be careful", "safety mode", "prod mode", or "careful mode". (gstack)
Clear the freeze boundary set by /freeze, allowing edits to all directories again. Use when you want to widen edit scope without ending the session. Use when asked to "unfreeze", "unlock edits", "remove freeze", or "allow all edits". (gstack)
Restrict file edits to a specific directory for the session. Blocks Edit and Write outside the allowed path. Use when debugging to prevent accidentally "fixing" unrelated code, or when you want to scope changes to one module. Use when asked to "freeze", "restrict edits", "only edit this folder", or "lock down edits". (gstack)
--- name: query-helper triggers: - find a page tools: - search - query writes_pages: false --- # query-helper This skill helps you query the brain. The first prose line becomes the description when no `description:` frontmatter is present.
Read, enrich, and write brain pages with source attribution.
# broken This SKILL.md has no YAML frontmatter fence. It must still be listed (with the directory name as its name and empty triggers), never throw.
Schedule management with staggering, quiet hours, and wake-up override. Validates schedules, prevents collisions, and gates delivery during quiet hours.
Migrate a brain from gbrain-base (or any pack) to gbrain-base-v2's 14-canonical-type taxonomy via gbrain onboard --check + the unify-types Minion handler. Collapses 94 noisy types to 15 canonical with subtypes, alias rows, and link rows. Triggers when an agent notices pack_upgrade_available, type_proliferation, or asks "what is the canonical taxonomy / how do I clean up my page types".
Lift a proven skill from a host repo (e.g. your OpenClaw fork) back into gbrain's bundle so other clients can scaffold it. Editorial workflow: the CLI does the file copy + privacy lint; this skill drives the judgment-heavy genericization (scrub real names, generalize triggers, lift fork-specific conventions to references).

--- name: voice-post-call version: 0.1.0 description: Post-call handling for a voice session — turn the transcript into a brain page, post the summary to the operator's messaging surface, archive the audio. Belt-and-suspenders: fires both from a tool the voice persona can call mid-call AND from the automatic call-end handler in server.mjs. triggers: - "after the call" - "call ended" - "summarize the call" - "call transcript" - "voice call summary" - "post call summary" mutating: true
Route to Mars (introspective thought partner / demo showman voice persona). Used when the operator wants depth, meaning, or impressive social demos rather than logistics. Mars handles SOLO mode (philosophy, presence, patterns) and DEMO mode (tool-driven showmanship) automatically.
Evolve your brain's schema pack. Add page types, propose new ones from corpus scans, backfill page.type on existing pages, audit pack health. Triggers when an agent notices untyped pages, custom domains needing typed entities (researcher, contract, deposition), or wants to see what types the pack declares.
Route to Venus (sharp executive-assistant voice persona). Used for logistics — calendar, tasks, recent messages, brain lookups — at sub-second phone-call latency. The default voice persona unless DEFAULT_PERSONA=mars is set.
Everything In Its Right Place. The universal post-work organizer. After any significant work session, EIIRP runs a 7-phase audit: (1) inventory every output, (2) walk taxonomy to decide where each lands, (3) check schema-pack consistency against the brain's actual shape, (4) file enriched brain pages, (5) audit the skill graph for DRY+MECE, (6) verify resolvability, (7) report. Named after the Radiohead song. Nothing produced during significant work lives only in chat — knowledge becomes permanent, patterns become reusable.
Save any thought or content into the brain via one CLI command. The single human-facing entrypoint that replaces "put_page vs commit-then-sync vs autopilot-wait" with one command that just works.
Filing gate for ALL brain writes. Consulted before creating any new brain page to determine the correct path. Reads the ACTIVE schema pack via `gbrain schema show --json` — no hardcoded directory table. Also runs periodic taxonomy drift detection via `gbrain schema review-orphans`.
Set up GBrain with auto-provision Supabase or PGLite, AGENTS.md injection, first import
Validate and auto-repair YAML frontmatter on brain pages. Catches malformed pages before they enter the brain (missing closing ---, nested quotes, slug mismatches, null bytes, empty frontmatter, YAML parse failures). Wraps the `gbrain frontmatter` CLI for agent-driven workflows.
External-lookup skill with NO brain-first compliance
Skill that runs gbrain search before external lookup
Read a book, article, transcript, or case study through the lens of a specific strategic problem you're facing. Produces an applied playbook that maps the source onto the problem and gives short/medium/long-term recommendations. NOT for general book summaries.
Skill that uses multiple external tools without compliance
Pure-infra skill that opts out via frontmatter
Skill where brain reference precedes a negation-prose mention
Skill with typo in brain_first declaration
Skill that operates purely on local state
External-lookup skill with explicit Phase 1 brain heading
External-lookup skill with canonical Convention callout
Compress an agent's routing file (RESOLVER.md or AGENTS.md) by converting granular skill-per-row tables into functional-area dispatchers. Each area lists sub-skills in a "(dispatcher for: ...)" clause. The LLM reads one area entry and routes to the correct sub-skill. Proven via held-out A/B eval: dispatcher pattern outperforms naive pipe-table compression.
Brain health checks: back-link enforcement, citation audit, filing validation, stale info detection, orphan pages, and benchmarks. Use when asked to check brain health, run maintenance, or audit quality.
Reference skill demonstrating the 10/10 skillpack contract. Adds a "what does this skillpack do" answer to the user's agent.
Compile daily briefing with meeting context, active deals, and citation tracking
Ingest a voice note with exact-phrasing preservation (never paraphrased). Routes content to originals/, concepts/, people/, companies/, ideas/, personal/, or voice-notes/ based on a decision tree. The user's exact words are the signal.
Ingest video, audio, PDF, book, screenshot, and GitHub repo content into the brain. Multi-format handling with entity extraction and backlink propagation. Covers video-ingest, youtube-ingest, and book-ingest subtypes.
Day-one data bootstrapping for a new brain. Sequences the highest-leverage data sources to go from empty brain to useful brain in one session. Uses ClawVisor for safe credential handling — the agent never holds raw API keys. Covers Gmail import, calendar sync, contacts seeding, X/Twitter archive, conversation imports, and file archives. Use when a user has just finished gbrain setup and asks "now what?"
Deduplicate and synthesize raw concept stubs into a tiered intellectual map (T1 Canon to T4 Riff), tracing idea evolution across sources over time. Transforms thousands of raw concept pages into a curated intellectual fingerprint.
Reusable pattern for presenting the user with explicit choices and gating execution until they respond. Used by other skills when a decision point requires human input before proceeding. Platform-agnostic — works on Telegram (inline buttons), Discord, CLI, or any agent with a message tool.
Transform raw article text dumps in the brain into structured pages with executive summary, verbatim quotes, key insights, why-it-matters, and cross-references. Replaces walls-of-text with quotable, actionable brain pages.
Verify a research claim or academic citation by tracing it through publication → methodology → raw data → independent replication. Routes through perplexity-research for the actual web lookup, then formats results as a citation-checked brain page. Use when a book/article/conversation cites a study and you want to confirm the claim is real, replicated, and accurately characterized.
Brain-augmented web research. Sends brain context about a topic to Perplexity, which searches the web with citations and returns what is NEW vs what the brain already knows. Use for entity enrichment, current-state checks, deal monitoring, and freshness deltas. NOT for simple URL fetches (use web_fetch) or brain-only queries (use gbrain query).
The meta skill. Turn any raw feature into a properly-skilled, tested, resolvable unit of agent capability. Cross-modal eval is the recommended Phase 3 quality gate: 3 frontier models from different providers critique the output, you iterate to quality, THEN write tests that lock in the proven-good behavior.
Quality gate via second model. Spawn a different AI model to review work before committing. Includes refusal routing: if one model refuses, switch silently to the next. Extended in v0.25.1 with structured review-mode gating (when to invoke vs not) and a Codex code-review handoff for the diff-review case.
Audit and fix citation formatting across brain pages. Ensures every fact has an inline [Source: ...] citation matching the standard format. Extended in v0.25.1: scans for broken tweet/post references that lack actual URLs and resolves them via the host's X / Twitter API integration.
Take any book (EPUB/PDF), produce a personalized chapter-by-chapter analysis with two-column tables. Left column preserves the chapter content; right column maps every idea to the reader's actual life using brain context. Output is a single brain page at media/books/<slug>-personalized.md plus an optional PDF via brain-pdf.
Universal archivist for personal file archives (Dropbox/B2/Gmail-takeout/local-mount/hard-drive-dump). Filters for high-value content (the user's own writing, ideas, relationships) and surfaces it interactively. REFUSES TO RUN without an explicit gbrain.yml `archive-crawler.scan_paths:` allow-list.
Skill validation framework PLUS daily test-suite health and regression intelligence. Validates skill conformance (frontmatter, manifest coverage, resolver coverage). Runs the project test suite in tiered phases (unit / evals / integration / system health), classifies failures, and produces a regression-aware report.
Generate a publication-quality PDF from any brain page via the gstack make-pdf binary. Strips YAML frontmatter, sanitizes emoji, applies running headers and page numbers. Brain page is always the source of truth; PDF is a rendering.
Enrich brain pages with tiered enrichment protocol. Creates and updates person/company pages with compiled truth, timeline, and cross-links. Use when a new entity is mentioned or an existing page needs updating.
Answer questions using the brain's knowledge with 3-layer search, synthesis, and citation propagation. Use when the user asks a question, wants a lookup, or needs information from the brain.
Unified Minions skill for both deterministic shell jobs and LLM subagent orchestration. Replaces the older `gbrain-jobs` routing intent. Use when: submitting gbrain jobs, shell/background tasks, spawning subagents, checking progress, steering running work, pausing/resuming, parallel fan-out. One durable, observable, steerable queue interface.
Post-restart smoke tests + auto-fix for gbrain and OpenClaw environments. Tests critical services, auto-fixes known issues, extensible via user-defined test scripts in ~/.gbrain/smoke-tests.d/*.sh.
Ingest meeting transcripts into brain pages with attendee enrichment, entity propagation, and timeline merge. A meeting is NOT fully ingested until the enrich skill has processed every entity.
Core read/write cycle for the OpenClaw reference fixture.
Look up brain pages in the OpenClaw reference fixture.
Always-on ambient signal capture. Fires on every inbound message to detect original thinking and entity mentions. Spawn as a cheap sub-agent in parallel, never block the main response.
Brain knowledge base operations. The core read/write cycle: brain-first lookup, read-enrich-write loop, source attribution, ambient enrichment, back-linking. Read this before any brain interaction.
ALWAYS-ON time-sensitivity discipline for the OpenClaw reference fixture.
Always-on ambient signal capture for the OpenClaw reference fixture.
Ingest links, articles, tweets, and ideas into the brain. Fetch content, save to brain with analysis, create author people page, and cross-link. Use when the user shares a link or says "read this", "save this", "think about this".
Route content to specialized ingestion skills. Detects input type and delegates.
Run `gbrain skillpack-check` to produce an agent-readable JSON health report for the gbrain install. Wraps `gbrain doctor` + `gbrain apply-migrations --list` so a host agent (your OpenClaw's morning-briefing, any OpenClaw cron) can see at a glance whether the skillpack needs attention. Use when the user asks "is gbrain healthy?", when a cron fires a morning check, or proactively when something seems off (jobs not running, brain not updating, autopilot silent).

Create new skills following the GBrain conformance standard. Generates SKILL.md with frontmatter, Contract, Phases, Output Format, and Anti-Patterns. Checks MECE against existing skills. Updates manifest and resolver.
Structured data research: search sources, extract structured data, archive raw sources, maintain canonical tracker pages, deduplicate. Parameterized via YAML recipes for investor updates, donations, company updates, or any email-to-structured-data pipeline.
6-phase interactive interview that generates the agent's identity (SOUL.md), user profile (USER.md), access control (ACCESS_POLICY.md), and operational cadence (HEARTBEAT.md). Re-runnable anytime to update any section.
# Install GBrain (Deprecated) This skill has been replaced by the **setup** skill. See `skills/setup/SKILL.md`. The setup skill provides: - Auto-provision Supabase via CLI (< 2 min TTHW) - Manual fallback with non-interactive init - AGENTS.md auto-injection (upgrade-safe) - First import and health verification
Where new brain files go. Decision protocol for filing brain pages by primary subject, not by format or source. Reference for all brain-writing skills.
Generic framework for converting external events (SMS, meetings, social mentions) into brain-ingestible signals. Define a transform function, register a webhook URL, and incoming events get processed through the brain pipeline.
Task lifecycle management. Add, complete, defer, remove, and review tasks. Maintains a running task list as a brain page.
Save and load timestamped reports. Keyword routing for fast lookup. Cron jobs save output as reports; the agent or user queries them by keyword.
Morning preparation. Calendar lookahead, meeting context loading, open threads from yesterday, active task review. Extends briefing with actionable prep.
