SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Setting up gbrain for a coding agent involves multiple manual steps: installing the CLI, initializing a PGLite or Supabase brain, registering MCP, and capturing per-remote trust policy. This Skill automates that entire flow so the agent can call gbrain after one command. ## Core Features & Use Cases - CLI Installation and Initialization: Installs the gbrain CLI and initializes a local PGLite or Supabase-backed brain. - MCP Registration: Registers gbrain as an MCP server (stdio or remote HTTP) so the coding agent can invoke it directly. - Trust Policy Capture: Records per-remote trust policy during setup for controlled access. - Use Case: A developer types "setup gbrain" and the agent walks through installation, brain initialization, and MCP wiring, ending with gbrain running and callable from the agent. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to set up gbrain on this machine and connect it to this coding agent.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up gbrain for my coding agent?

Invoke the setup-gbrain skill with a phrase like "setup gbrain" or "install gbrain". It installs the CLI, initializes a local PGLite or Supabase brain, registers MCP, and captures trust policy in one guided flow.

What storage backends does gbrain support?

gbrain supports a local PGLite database or a Supabase-backed brain. The setup flow lets you choose which backend to initialize during configuration.

Does gbrain work with remote MCP servers?

Yes, gbrain can be registered as a remote MCP server over HTTP or SSE, or as a local stdio server. In remote mode, local artifact sync is skipped because the brain server pulls from GitHub or GitLab itself.

Why is the setup-gbrain skill blocked in my session?

The skill requires an AskUserQuestion tool variant, either native or an MCP-provided one. If no variant is available in your tool list, the skill stops and reports BLOCKED until the tool is enabled.

Can gbrain setup run non-interactively in spawned sessions?

Yes, when running inside an orchestrator-spawned session, the skill auto-chooses recommended options instead of prompting, skips upgrade and telemetry prompts, and ends with a completion report.
