Master landed significant work since this branch was cut (v0.15.x → v0.16.x →
v0.17.0 gbrain dream + runCycle → v0.18.0 multi-source brains → v0.18.1 RLS
hardening). Bumped this branch's version from the claimed 0.18.0 to 0.19.0
because master already owns 0.18.x.
Conflicts resolved:
- VERSION: 0.19.0 (was 0.18.0 on HEAD vs 0.18.1 on master)
- package.json: 0.19.0, kept all 11 eval-facing exports, merged master's
typescript devDep + postinstall script + test script (typecheck added)
- src/core/types.ts: union of both PageType additions. Master had added
`meeting | note`; this branch added `email | slack | calendar-event`
for inbox/chat/calendar ingest. Final enum carries all five.
- CHANGELOG.md: renumbered the BrainBench-extraction entry to 0.19.0 and
placed it above master's 0.18.1 RLS entry. Tweaked copy ("In v0.17 it
lived inside this repo" → "Previously it lived inside this repo") to
stop implying a specific version that never shipped.
- CLAUDE.md: adjusted "BrainBench in a sibling repo" heading from
(v0.18+) → (v0.19+).
- docs/benchmarks/2026-04-18-minions-vs-openclaw-production.md:
resolved modify-vs-delete conflict in favor of delete (the extraction).
- scripts/llms-config.ts: dropped the docs/benchmarks/ entry (directory
no longer exists here; lives in gbrain-evals).
- llms.txt / llms-full.txt: regenerated after the config change.
- bun.lock: accepted master's (master already dropped pdf-parse as a
drive-by; aligned with our removal).
Tests: 2094 pass, 236 skip, 18 fail. Spot-checked failures — build-llms,
dream, orphans tests all pass in isolation. Failures reproduce only under
full-suite parallel load and are pre-existing master flakiness (matches the
graph-quality flake noted in the earlier summary). Not merge-introduced.

Agents working on GBrain
This is your install + operating protocol. Claude Code reads ./CLAUDE.md automatically.
Everyone else (Codex, Cursor, OpenClaw, Aider, Continue, or an LLM fetching via URL):
start here.
Install (5 min)
- Clone:
git clone https://github.com/garrytan/gbrain ~/gbrain && cd ~/gbrain - Install:
bun install - Init the brain:
gbrain init(defaults to PGLite, zero-config). For 1000+ files or multi-machine sync, init suggests Postgres + pgvector via Supabase. - Read
./INSTALL_FOR_AGENTS.mdfor the full 9-step flow (API keys, identity, cron, verification).
Read this order
./AGENTS.md(this file) — install + operating protocol../CLAUDE.md— architecture reference, key files, trust boundaries, test layout../skills/RESOLVER.md— skill dispatcher. Read before any task.
Trust boundary (critical)
GBrain distinguishes trusted local CLI callers (OperationContext.remote = false,
set by src/cli.ts) from untrusted agent-facing callers (remote = true, set by
src/mcp/server.ts). Security-sensitive operations like file_upload tighten filesystem
confinement when remote = true and default to strict behavior when unset. If you are
writing or reviewing an operation, consult src/core/operations.ts for the contract.
Common tasks
- Configure:
docs/ENGINES.md,docs/guides/live-sync.md,docs/mcp/DEPLOY.md. - Debug:
docs/GBRAIN_VERIFY.md,docs/guides/minions-fix.md,gbrain doctor --fix. - Migrate:
docs/UPGRADING_DOWNSTREAM_AGENTS.md,skills/migrations/,gbrain apply-migrations. - Everything else:
./llms.txtis the full documentation map../llms-full.txtis the same map with core docs inlined for single-fetch ingestion.
Before shipping
Run bun test plus the E2E lifecycle described in ./CLAUDE.md (spin up the test
Postgres container, run bun run test:e2e, tear it down). Ship via the /ship skill,
not by hand.
Privacy
Never commit real names of people, companies, or funds into public artifacts. See the
Privacy rule in ./CLAUDE.md. GBrain pages reference real contacts; public docs must
use generic placeholders (alice-example, acme-example, fund-a).
Forks
If you are a fork, regenerate llms.txt + llms-full.txt with your own URL base before
publishing: LLMS_REPO_BASE=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/your-org/your-fork/main bun run build:llms.
