brain prevents AI coding agents from repeatedly relearning a repository’s context by turning the project itself into durable, agent-readable memory.
Use brain to prepare the repository’s durable context for your next coding task by running: brain prep --task "<task>".
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Durable project memory is maintained by keeping markdown knowledge directly in your repo and using a local SQLite index for retrieval. This prevents agents from repeatedly relearning repository context during task switching.
You compile startup context by running `brain prep --task "<task>"` to generate task-appropriate context packets. This prepares validated sessions with budget control to avoid wasting turns rediscovering existing repo state.
Yes, you can track markdown note history and undo updates. Brain-managed markdown files support safe, auditable updates, ensuring that all knowledge edits remain traceable as your project changes over time.
Agents retrieve local repository contracts by querying a project-local SQLite index. This compiled retrieval mechanism supplies the exact context needed without wasting tokens rediscovering what the repo already knows.
Yes, it requires repo-local Brain docs like AGENTS.md and .brain context to function correctly. The CLI uses these local files first, only falling back to generic behavior when repo-local context is completely absent.
Agents relearn context because they lack durable project memory. Brain solves this by turning the project itself into agent-readable memory, allowing immediate retrieval of contracts, workflows, and current state across files.
