Filing rule: When the briefing creates or updates brain pages, follow

skills/_brain-filing-rules.md

.

• Every fact in the briefing includes an inline

  [Source: slug, updated DATE]

  citation.
• Meeting participants are resolved against the brain; gaps are explicitly flagged.
• Active deals and action items include deadlines and recency context.
• The briefing is read-only: no brain pages are created or modified unless the user explicitly requests it.
• Stale alerts surface pages relevant to today's context, not just all stale pages.

1. Hot memory pulse (v0.32). Before composing anything else, run:
   bash

   gbrain recall --since-last-run --supersessions --pending --rollup --json

   Fold the result into the briefing under a "Brain pulse" section at the top:
   1. Contradictions resolved overnight — the

      --supersessions

      output. Lead with these because they're new corrections to your model of the world.
   2. Top mentions —

      top_entities

      from

      --rollup

      (top 5 entity slugs by fact count in the window).
   3. New facts since last briefing — group the

      facts

      array under each entity from the rollup; include

      kind

      ,

      notability

      , and

      confidence

      .
   4. Pending consolidation footer — when

      pending_consolidation_count > 0

      , note

      N facts await dream-cycle consolidation

      so the operator can decide whether to run

      gbrain dream

      before reading further.
   The

   --since-last-run

   flag advances

   ~/.gbrain/recall-cursors/<source>.json

   so the next briefing picks up exactly where this one left off. If you're running this as a cron job, pass

   --source <slug>

   or set

   GBRAIN_SOURCE

   explicitly — cron doesn't start in your repo-root cwd, so dotfile resolution may miss the right source. Thin-client installs (

   gbrain init --mcp-only

   ) route through the remote brain transparently.
2. Today's meetings. For each meeting on the calendar:
   • Search gbrain for each participant by name
   • Read their pages from gbrain for compiled_truth context
   • Summarize: who they are, recent timeline, relationship to you
3. Active deals. List deal pages in gbrain filtered to active status:
   • Deadlines approaching in the next 7 days
   • Recent timeline entries (last 7 days)
4. Time-sensitive threads. Open items from timeline entries:
   • Items with deadlines in the next 48 hours
   • Follow-ups that are overdue
5. Recent changes. Pages updated in the last 24 hours:
   • What changed and why (read timeline entries from gbrain)
6. People in play. List person pages in gbrain sorted by recency:
   • Updated in last 7 days
   • Have high activity (many recent timeline entries)
7. Stale alerts. From gbrain health check:
   • Pages flagged as stale that are relevant to today's meetings

• gbrain search "<attendee name>"

  -- find their brain page

• gbrain get <slug>

  -- load compiled truth, recent timeline, relationship context
• If no page exists, note the gap ("No brain page for Sarah Chen -- consider enrichment")

• gbrain search "<sender name>"

  -- load sender context
• Read their compiled truth to understand who they are, what they care about, and your relationship history. This turns a cold reply into an informed one.

• gbrain query "active deals status"

  -- deal pipeline snapshot

• gbrain query "meetings this week"

  -- recent meeting pages with insights

• gbrain query "pending commitments follow-ups"

  -- open threads and action items

• gbrain search --type person --sort updated --limit 10

  -- people in play

• "Jane is CTO of Acme [Source: people/jane-doe, updated 2026-04-01]"
• This lets the user trace any claim back to the brain page and assess freshness

• Briefing without brain queries. Never generate a briefing from memory alone; always query gbrain for current data.
• Uncited facts. Every claim must include

  [Source: slug, updated DATE]

  . A fact without a citation is unverifiable.
• Stale context presented as current. If a page hasn't been updated in 30+ days, flag the staleness explicitly rather than presenting it as fresh.
• Modifying brain pages unprompted. The briefing is read-only by default. Do not create or update pages unless the user explicitly requests it.
• Ignoring coverage gaps. When a meeting participant has no brain page, say so. Silence about gaps hides ignorance.

• Search gbrain by name (query)
• Read a page from gbrain (get_page)
• List pages in gbrain by type (list_pages)
• Check gbrain health (get_health)
• View timeline entries in gbrain (get_timeline)
