academic-verify

skills/academic-verify/SKILL.md

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.

archive-crawler

skills/archive-crawler/SKILL.md

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.

article-enrichment

skills/article-enrichment/SKILL.md

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.

ask-user

skills/ask-user/SKILL.md

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.

blog-ingest

plugin-variants/gbrain-daily/skills/blog-ingest/SKILL.md

Feed and whole-publication ingestion: turn an entire blog, newsletter, or RSS/Atom archive into brain source pages. Covers feed discovery, pagination walking, normalization to a common article shape, canonical-URL dedup, idempotent re-runs, 429 pacing, and empty-husk repair. This is the PUBLICATION-scope skill — a single article URL routes to idea-ingest instead. Per-article enrichment hands off to the brain-ingest-gate skill; public posts only (gated content is skipped, never worked around).

book-mirror

skills/book-mirror/SKILL.md

Take any book (EPUB/PDF), produce a personalized chapter-by-chapter analysis. Each chapter is preserved in detail (The Chapter) and mirrored back to the reader's actual life (The Mirror) using brain context. The mirror observes and resonates — a friend pointing out parallels, NOT a consultant rearranging the reader's life, NOT a therapist assigning homework. The reader decides what to do about it. Layout is a top-aligned HTML table or stacked sections, never a bare markdown pipe table (pipe tables center-misalign uneven columns). Output is a single brain page at media/books/<slug>-personalized.md plus an optional PDF via brain-pdf.

brain-ingest-gate

plugin-variants/gbrain-coding/skills/brain-ingest-gate/SKILL.md

Pre-write quality gate for content entering the brain. No raw copies: a bare cp/mv into the brain repo is a bug. Before any new page lands, resolve named entities registry-first (a vector score is a floor for prose, never a gate for named things), then run the read-the-top-hit dedup decision tree (clear-dup / plausible-dup / clear). Owns dedup; delegates enrichment to the shipped ingestion skills. Routing convention, not an operation-boundary enforcement.

brain-link-discipline

plugin-variants/gbrain-coding/skills/brain-link-discipline/SKILL.md

When you report a brain page to the user — created, edited, committed, or relayed from a subagent — a working link is part of the deliverable, in the SAME message. Derive the path mechanically (git ls-files --full-name), push BEFORE linking, verify the link resolves when a hosted remote exists, and degrade through a defined fallback chain when it doesn't. Inside brain pages the rule inverts: relative links preserve the link graph; absolute URLs are for chat deliverables only.

brain-ops

skills/brain-ops/SKILL.md

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.

brain-pdf

skills/brain-pdf/SKILL.md

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.

62

brain-taxonomist

skills/brain-taxonomist/SKILL.md

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`.

64

briefing

skills/briefing/SKILL.md

Compile daily briefing with meeting context, active deals, and citation tracking
