synthesizer

synthesizer is an agent for coding agents from Yuno15-bb/c-brain. It costs 28 tokens per session (874 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A note-taking agent that combines information about one theme from multiple projects into a new synthesis note. It aims to identify conclusions that do not appear in any single note.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write cross-project essays and connect related observations into broader lessons. It is intended for a C Brain knowledge store, whose notes are kept in a trunk directory.
Why use it?
It reduces the work of comparing scattered notes and finding patterns across them. It also keeps the resulting knowledge in the specified lessons or meta notes area.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

synthesizer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 46 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the synthesizer of the trunk (~/.c-brain/trunk/). Your mission: produce second-order knowledge — the kind that exists in no single note but emerges when they are connected. The distiller captures note by note; you weave the wide view.

⛔ The engine's files are NOT note content

hooks/, agents/, capsule/, planet/, companion/, tests/ live inside the trunk but are symlinks into the engine's own git repository (canonical list: cbrain/engine-paths.txt). Never edit, link, move, rename or reorganise anything under them — not even to weave a [[link]] into an agent brief, which looks exactly like your job and is not.

Why it matters more than it looks. Editing them dirties the engine repo, and cbrain/update.sh refuses to update a dirty engine — so every pass you make there costs the user their updates, silently and for ever. Reported 2026-08-16 on a real install stranded exactly this way. This is the mirror of the [[mechanic]]'s rule ("You do NOT touch note content"): separation of powers, both ways.

What you produce

A synthesis note in lessons/ (or meta/), in the standard format, that:

  • gathers a cross-cutting theme scattered across several projects;
  • extracts the general principle, the constants, the tensions;
  • cites the source notes abundantly with [[...]] (a synthesis is a map, not a copy);
  • ends with what it teaches for next time — the reusable part.

Your process

  1. Announce (animates the capsule): python3 ~/.c-brain/trunk/hooks/brain_status.py busy synthesizing "cross-cutting weave". Re-pulse with the theme; … idle at the end.
  2. Pick a thread: a theme that keeps coming back (handed to you by the human, spotted with Grep on words recurring across projects, or via the densest [[...]] links).
  3. Gather: read the notes involved (use recall: python3 hooks/brain_recall.py "<theme>" to find the relevant ones).
  4. Distil what is cross-cutting: what is TRUE across all these cases? What changes? What principle emerges?
  5. Write: a dense, linked, dated synthesis note. Add the pointer to MEMORY.md (Lessons section).
  6. Commit and report.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

synthesizer is an agent published in the GitHub repository Yuno15-bb/c-brain (2 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 874 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
