* feat: migrate 8 existing skills to conformance format Add YAML frontmatter (name, version, description, triggers, tools, mutating), Contract, Anti-Patterns, and Output Format sections to all existing skills. Rename Workflow to Phases. Ingest becomes thin router delegating to specialized ingestion skills (Phase 2). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add RESOLVER.md, conventions directory, and output rules RESOLVER.md is the skill dispatcher modeled on Wintermute's AGENTS.md. Categorized routing table: Always-on, Brain ops, Ingestion, Thinking, Operational, Setup, Identity. Conventions directory extracts cross-cutting rules (quality, brain-first lookup, model routing, test-before-bulk). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * test: add skills conformance and resolver validation tests skills-conformance.test.ts validates every skill has YAML frontmatter with required fields, Contract, Anti-Patterns, and Output Format sections, and manifest.json coverage. resolver.test.ts validates routing table categories, skill path existence, and manifest-to-resolver coverage. 50 new tests. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add 9 brain skills from Wintermute (Phase 2) Generalized from Wintermute's battle-tested skills: - signal-detector: always-on idea+entity capture on every message - brain-ops: brain-first lookup, read-enrich-write loop, source attribution - idea-ingest: links/articles/tweets with author people page mandatory - media-ingest: video/audio/PDF/book with entity extraction (absorbs video/youtube/book) - meeting-ingestion: transcripts with attendee enrichment chaining - citation-fixer: audit and fix citation formatting - repo-architecture: filing rules by primary subject - skill-creator: create skills with conformance standard + MECE check - daily-task-manager: task lifecycle with priority levels All Garry-specific references generalized. Core workflows preserved. Updated RESOLVER.md and manifest.json. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add operational infrastructure + identity layer (Phase 3) Operational skills: - daily-task-prep: morning prep with calendar context and open threads - cross-modal-review: quality gate via second model with refusal routing - cron-scheduler: schedule staggering, quiet hours, wake-up override, idempotency - reports: timestamped reports with keyword routing - testing: skill validation framework (conformance checks) - soul-audit: 6-phase interview generating SOUL.md, USER.md, ACCESS_POLICY.md, HEARTBEAT.md - webhook-transforms: external events to brain signals with dead-letter queue Identity layer: - SOUL.md template (agent identity, generated by soul-audit) - USER.md template (user profile, generated by soul-audit) - ACCESS_POLICY.md template (4-tier access control) - HEARTBEAT.md template (operational cadence) - cross-modal.yaml convention (review pairs, refusal routing chain) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: update CLAUDE.md with 24 skills, RESOLVER.md, conventions, templates GBrain is now a GStack mod for agent platforms. Updated architecture description, key files listing (16 new skill files, RESOLVER.md, conventions, templates), skills section (24 skills organized by resolver categories), and testing section (new conformance and resolver tests). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add GStack detection + mod status to gbrain init (Phase 4) After brain initialization, gbrain init now reports: - Number of skills loaded (from manifest.json) - GStack detection (checks known host paths, uses gstack-global-discover if available) - GStack install instructions if not found - Resolver and soul-audit pointers Also adds installDefaultTemplates() for SOUL.md/USER.md/ACCESS_POLICY.md/HEARTBEAT.md deployment, and detectGStack() using gstack-global-discover with fallback to known paths (DRY: doesn't reimplement GStack's host detection logic). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: v0.10.0 release documentation - CHANGELOG: 24 skills, signal detector, RESOLVER.md, soul-audit, access control, conventions, conformance standard, GStack detection in init - README: updated skill section with 24 skills, resolver, conventions - TODOS: added runtime MCP access control (P1) - VERSION: 0.9.2 → 0.10.0 - package.json + manifest.json version bumped Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: add skill table to CHANGELOG v0.10.0 16-row table detailing every new skill, what it does, and why it matters. Written to sell the upgrade, not document the implementation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: restore package.json version after merge conflict resolution Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: zero-based README rewrite for GStackBrain v0.10.0 Lead with GStack mod identity. 24 skills table organized by category. Install block references RESOLVER.md and soul-audit. GBrain+GStack relationship explained. Removed redundancy (733 -> 406 lines). All essential content preserved: install, recipes, architecture, search, commands, engines, voice, knowledge model. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: extract install block to INSTALL_FOR_AGENTS.md, simplify README The 30-line copy-paste install block becomes one line: "Retrieve and follow INSTALL_FOR_AGENTS.md" Benefits: agent always gets latest instructions (no stale copy-paste), README stays clean, install details live where agents read them. README now leads with what GBrain does ("gives your agent a brain") instead of GStack relationship. Removed "requires frontier model" note. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: 3 bugs in init.ts from merge conflict resolution 1. llstatSync typo (merge corruption) → lstatSync 2. __dirname undefined in ESM module → fileURLToPath polyfill 3. require('fs') in ESM → use imported readFileSync All three would crash gbrain init at runtime. Caught by /review. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add checkResolvable shared core function for resolver validation Shared function at src/core/check-resolvable.ts validates that all skills are reachable from RESOLVER.md, detects MECE overlaps (with whitelist for always-on/router skills), finds gaps in frontmatter triggers, and scans for DRY violations. Returns structured ResolvableIssue objects with machine-parseable fix objects alongside human-readable action strings. Three call sites: bun test, gbrain doctor, skill-creator skill. Cleans up test/resolver.test.ts: removes stale 9-line skip list, imports from production check-resolvable.ts instead of reimplementing parsing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: expand doctor with resolver validation, filesystem-first architecture Doctor now runs filesystem checks (resolver health, skill conformance) before connecting to DB. New --fast flag skips DB checks. Falls back to filesystem-only when DB is unavailable. Adds schema_version: 2 to JSON output, composite health score (0-100), and structured issues array with action strings for agent parsing. Resolver health check calls checkResolvable() and surfaces actionable fix instructions. Link integrity check uses engine.getHealth() dead_links count. CLI routing split: doctor dispatched before connectEngine() so filesystem checks always run. Fixes Codex-identified blocker where doctor required DB. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add adaptive load-aware throttling and fail-improve loop backoff.ts: System load checking (CPU via os.loadavg, memory via os.freemem), exponential backoff with 20-attempt max guard, active hours multiplier (2x slower during waking hours), concurrent process limit (max 2). Windows-safe: defaults to "proceed" when os.loadavg returns zeros. fail-improve.ts: Deterministic-first, LLM-fallback pattern with JSONL failure logging. Cascade failure handling: when both paths fail, throws LLM error and logs both. Log rotation at 1000 entries. Call count tracking for deterministic hit rate metrics. Auto-generates test cases from successful LLM fallbacks. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add transcription service and enrichment-as-a-service transcription.ts: Groq Whisper (default) with OpenAI fallback. Files >25MB segmented via ffmpeg. Provider auto-detection from env vars. Clear error messages for missing API keys and unsupported formats. enrichment-service.ts: Global enrichment service callable from any ingest pathway. Entity slug generation (people/jane-doe, companies/acme-corp), mention counting via searchKeyword, tier auto-escalation (Tier 3→2→1 based on mention frequency and source diversity), batch enrichment with backoff throttling, regex-based entity extraction from text. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add data-research skill with recipe system, extraction, dedup, tracker New skill: data-research — one parameterized pipeline for any email-to- structured-data workflow (investor updates, donations, company metrics). 7-phase pipeline: define recipe, search, classify, extract (with extraction integrity rule), archive, deduplicate, update tracker. data-research.ts: Recipe validation, MRR/ARR/runway/headcount regex extraction (battle-tested patterns), dedup with configurable tolerance, markdown tracker parsing/appending, quarterly/monthly date windowing, 6-phase HTML email stripping with 500KB ReDoS cap. Registers data-research in manifest.json (25th skill) and RESOLVER.md. Fixes backoff test robustness for high-load systems. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: update project documentation for v0.10.0 infrastructure additions CLAUDE.md: added 6 new core files (check-resolvable, backoff, fail-improve, transcription, enrichment-service, data-research), 6 new test files, updated skill count to 25, test file count to 34. README.md: updated skill count to 25, added data-research to skills table. CHANGELOG.md: added Infrastructure section documenting resolver validation, doctor expansion, adaptive throttling, fail-improve loop, voice transcription, enrichment service, and data-research skill. TODOS.md: anonymized personal references. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: doctor.ts use ES module imports, harden backoff test Replace require('fs') with ES module import in doctor.ts for consistency with the rest of the file. Backoff test made resilient to parallel test execution leaking module-level state. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: README rewrite with production brain stats, sample output, new infrastructure Lead with the flex: 17,888 pages, 4,383 people, 723 companies, 526 meeting transcripts built in 12 days. Show sample query output so readers see what they'll get. Document self-improving infrastructure (tier auto-escalation, fail-improve loop, doctor trajectory). Add data-research recipes to Getting Data In. Update commands section with doctor --fix, transcribe, research init/list. Fix stale "24" references to "25". Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: README lead with YC President origin and production agent deployments Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: README lead with skill philosophy and link to Thin Harness Fat Skills Skills section now explains: skill files are code, they encode entire workflows, they call deterministic TypeScript for the parts that shouldn't be LLM judgment. Links to the tweet and the architecture essay. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: link GStack repo, add 70K stars and 30K daily users Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: remove meeting transcript count from README (sensitive) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: README lead with YC President origin and production agent deployments Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: rename political-donations recipe to expense-tracker (sensitivity) Renamed the built-in data-research recipe from political-donations to expense-tracker across README, CHANGELOG, SKILL.md, and reports routing. Same extraction patterns (amounts, dates, recipients), neutral framing. Also renamed social-radar keyword route to social-mentions.

TODOS
P1
Batch embedding queue across files
What: Shared embedding queue that collects chunks from all parallel import workers and flushes to OpenAI in batches of 100, instead of each worker batching independently.
Why: With 4 workers importing files that average 5 chunks each, you get 4 concurrent OpenAI API calls with small batches (5-10 chunks). A shared queue would batch 100 chunks across workers into one API call, cutting embedding cost and latency roughly in half.
Pros: Fewer API calls (500 chunks = 5 calls instead of ~100), lower cost, faster embedding.
Cons: Adds coordination complexity: backpressure when queue is full, error attribution back to source file, worker pausing. Medium implementation effort.
Context: Deferred during eng review because per-worker embedding is simpler and the parallel workers themselves are the bigger speed win (network round-trips). Revisit after profiling real import workloads to confirm embedding is actually the bottleneck. If most imports use --no-embed, this matters less.
Implementation sketch: src/core/embedding-queue.ts with a Promise-based semaphore. Workers await queue.submit(chunks) which resolves when the queue has room. Queue flushes to OpenAI in batches of 100 with max 2-3 concurrent API calls. Track source file per chunk for error propagation.
Depends on: Part 5 (parallel import with per-worker engines) -- already shipped.
P0
Fix bun build --compile WASM embedding for PGLite
What: Submit PR to oven-sh/bun fixing WASM file embedding in bun build --compile (issue oven-sh/bun#15032).
Why: PGLite's WASM files (~3MB) can't be embedded in the compiled binary. Users who install via bun install -g gbrain are fine (WASM resolves from node_modules), but the compiled binary can't use PGLite. Jarred Sumner (Bun founder, YC W22) would likely be receptive.
Pros: Single-binary distribution includes PGLite. No sidecar files needed.
Cons: Requires understanding Bun's bundler internals. May be a large PR.
Context: Issue has been open since Nov 2024. The root cause is that bun build --compile generates virtual filesystem paths (/$bunfs/root/...) that PGLite can't resolve. Multiple users have reported this. A fix would benefit any WASM-dependent package, not just PGLite.
Depends on: PGLite engine shipping (to have a real use case for the PR).
ChatGPT MCP support (OAuth 2.1)
What: Add OAuth 2.1 with Dynamic Client Registration to the self-hosted MCP server so ChatGPT can connect.
Why: ChatGPT requires OAuth 2.1 for MCP connectors. Bearer token auth is NOT supported. This is the only major AI client that can't use GBrain remotely.
Pros: Completes the "every AI client" promise. ChatGPT has the largest user base.
Cons: OAuth 2.1 is a significant implementation: authorization endpoint, token endpoint, PKCE flow, dynamic client registration. Estimated CC: ~3-4 hours.
Context: Discovered during DX review (2026-04-10). All other clients (Claude Desktop/Code/Cowork, Perplexity) work with bearer tokens. The Edge Function deployment was removed in v0.8.0. OAuth needs to be added to the self-hosted HTTP MCP server (or gbrain serve --http when implemented).
Depends on: gbrain serve --http (not yet implemented).
Runtime MCP access control
What: Add sender identity checking to MCP operations. Brain ops return filtered data based on access tier (Full/Work/Family/None).
Why: ACCESS_POLICY.md is prompt-layer enforcement (agent reads policy before responding). A direct MCP caller can bypass it. Runtime enforcement in the MCP server is the real security boundary for multi-user and remote deployments.
Pros: Real security boundary. ACCESS_POLICY.md becomes enforceable, not advisory.
Cons: Requires adding sender_id or access_tier to OperationContext. Each mutating operation needs a permission check. Medium implementation effort.
Context: From CEO review + Codex outside voice (2026-04-13). Prompt-layer access control works in practice (same model as Wintermute) but is not sufficient for remote MCP where direct tool calls bypass the agent's prompt.
Depends on: v0.10.0 GStackBrain skill layer (shipped).
P1 (new from v0.7.0)
Constrained health_check DSL for third-party recipes
Completed: v0.9.3 (2026-04-12). Typed DSL with 4 check types (http, env_exists, command, any_of). All 7 first-party recipes migrated. String health checks accepted with deprecation warning + metachar validation for non-embedded recipes.
P2
Community recipe submission (gbrain integrations submit)
What: Package a user's custom integration recipe as a PR to the GBrain repo. Validates frontmatter, checks constrained DSL health_checks, creates PR with template.
Why: Turns GBrain from a single-author integration set into a community ecosystem. The recipe format IS the contribution format.
Pros: Community-driven integration library. Users build Slack-to-brain, RSS-to-brain, Discord-to-brain.
Cons: Support burden. Need constrained DSL (P1) before accepting third-party recipes. Need review process for recipe quality.
Context: From CEO review (2026-04-11). User explicitly deferred due to bandwidth constraints. Target v0.9.0.
Depends on: Constrained health_check DSL (P1) — SHIPPED in v0.9.3.
Always-on deployment recipes (Fly.io, Railway)
What: Alternative deployment recipes for voice-to-brain and future integrations that run on cloud servers instead of local + ngrok.
Why: ngrok free URLs are ephemeral (change on restart). Always-on deployment eliminates the watchdog complexity and gives a stable webhook URL.
Pros: Stable URLs, no ngrok dependency, production-grade uptime.
Cons: Costs $5-10/mo per integration. Requires cloud account.
Context: From DX review (2026-04-11). v0.7.0 ships local+ngrok as v1 deployment path.
Depends on: v0.7.0 recipe format (shipped).
gbrain serve --http + Fly.io/Railway deployment
What: Add gbrain serve --http as a thin HTTP wrapper around the stdio MCP server. Include a Dockerfile/fly.toml for cloud deployment.
Why: The Edge Function deployment was removed in v0.8.0. Remote MCP now requires a custom HTTP wrapper around gbrain serve. A built-in --http flag would make this zero-effort. Bun runs natively, no bundling seam, no 60s timeout, no cold start.
Pros: Simpler remote MCP setup. Users run gbrain serve --http behind ngrok instead of building a custom server. Supports all 30 operations remotely (including sync_brain and file_upload).
Cons: Users need ngrok ($8/mo) or a cloud host (Fly.io $5/mo, Railway $5/mo). Not zero-infra.
Context: Production deployments use a custom Hono server wrapping gbrain serve. This TODO would formalize that pattern into the CLI. ChatGPT OAuth 2.1 support depends on this.
Depends on: v0.8.0 (Edge Function removal shipped).
Completed
Implement AWS Signature V4 for S3 storage backend
Completed: v0.6.0 (2026-04-10) — replaced with @aws-sdk/client-s3 for proper SigV4 signing.
