What problem does it solve?
It removes the friction of deciding which ingestion command to use by giving you one reliable CLI entrypoint to store a single idea, snippet, or transcript into your brain.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Single-command ingestion: Save a thought, article snippet, transcript fragment, or any text using one consistent command.
- Write-through storage + immediate queryability: Creates a page in the brain database and writes a corresponding markdown file to disk so it’s usable right away.
- Idempotent, predictable slugs: Re-capturing the same content yields the same inbox/YYYY-MM-DD-<hash8> destination, with dedup handling repeats.
- Safe trust boundary: This capture path is local-CLI trust (remote: false), while untrusted ingestion goes through a dedicated ingest endpoint.
Quick Start
Run the capture skill to save your text into the brain database and the local inbox file by using: gbrain capture "the thought I want to remember"
