agent-brain: Command for Claude Code

.claude/commands/inbox.md

inbox is a command for Claude Code from Railly/agent-brain. It costs 14 tokens per session (1,185 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An inbox-processing workflow that turns saved web clips into small, focused notes and content ideas. A web clip is a piece of online content saved for later review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to process unhandled Markdown clips, create or update concept notes, save processed copies, and extract ideas for tweets, threads, blogs, shorts, or tutorials.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually sort every saved clip and convert it into reusable knowledge. It preserves the source and places processed material in the appropriate folders.

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.

Fable 5.1 $0.00014 $0.01185
Opus 5.5 $0.00006 $0.00474

Security

Grade A, and why

inbox 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 2mo 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 — 138 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Process pending clips from 01_Inbox/.

IMPORTANT: Be direct

  • Don't check if folders exist - they do
  • Don't search for existing notes - just write
  • Don't read ideas.md before appending - just append
  • Minimize tool calls

Flow

  1. Find unprocessed clips List all .md files directly in 01_Inbox/ - these are unprocessed.

  2. For each clip (read content, extract insight, identify topic)

  3. Create atomic note in 03_Garden/concepts/{topic-slug}.md (FLAT, evergreen):

    ---
    type: concept
    created: {{date}}
    themes: []
    sources:
      - "[[01_Inbox/processed/{{date}}/{processed-slug}]]"
    people: []
    ---
    # {Topic}
    
    {1-2 sentence insight}
    
    ## Key ideas
    - {extracted points}
    
    ## Connections
    - [[Related concept]] - how it relates
    

    If concept already exists: Append to Key ideas + add new source to sources: array

  4. Extract content ideas to 05_Areas/content-creation/ideas/{{date}}/{slug}.md:

    ---
    type: content-idea
    format: tweet | thread | blog | short | tutorial
    status: idea
    source: "[[03_Garden/concepts/{concept-slug}]]"
    created: {{date}}
    priority: 3
    ---
    # {Title}
    
    {The content idea - actual tweet text, thread hook, or blog thesis}
    
    ## Hook
    {Why this will resonate}
    
    ## Notes
    - {Additional context}
    
  5. Enrich with metadata:

    • People: If author or people mentioned, create 03_Garden/people/{person-name}.md if doesn't exist
    • Location: If place mentioned, add coordinates to concept note
  6. Find connections

    • List existing notes: 03_Garden/concepts/
    • Look for related topics (semantic similarity, shared tags)
    • Add backlinks to the new concept and existing related concepts
  7. Mark clip as processed - add generated: links + move to date folder:

    First, update the clip's frontmatter to add the generated: field:

    ---
    generated:
      - "[[03_Garden/concepts/{concept-slug}]]"
      - "[[05_Areas/.../ideas/{{date}}/{idea-slug}]]"
    ---

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.
