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

briefing 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 8d 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.

Origin

Briefing Skill

Compile a daily briefing from brain context.

Filing rule: When the briefing creates or updates brain pages, follow skills/_brain-filing-rules.md.

Contract

  • Every fact in the briefing includes an inline [Source: slug, updated DATE] citation.
  • Meeting participants are resolved against the brain; gaps are explicitly flagged.
  • Active deals and action items include deadlines and recency context.
  • The briefing is read-only: no brain pages are created or modified unless the user explicitly requests it.
  • Stale alerts surface pages relevant to today's context, not just all stale pages.

Phases

  1. Hot memory pulse (v0.32). Before composing anything else, run:

    gbrain recall --since-last-run --supersessions --pending --rollup --json
    

    Fold the result into the briefing under a "Brain pulse" section at the top:

    1. Contradictions resolved overnight — the --supersessions output. Lead with these because they're new corrections to your model of the world.
    2. Top mentionstop_entities from --rollup (top 5 entity slugs by fact count in the window).
    3. New facts since last briefing — group the facts array under each entity from the rollup; include kind, notability, and confidence.
    4. Pending consolidation footer — when pending_consolidation_count > 0, note N facts await dream-cycle consolidation so the operator can decide whether to run gbrain dream before reading further.

    The --since-last-run flag advances ~/.gbrain/recall-cursors/<source>.json so the next briefing picks up exactly where this one left off. If you're running this as a cron job, pass --source <slug> or set GBRAIN_SOURCE explicitly — cron doesn't start in your repo-root cwd, so dotfile resolution may miss the right source. Thin-client installs (gbrain init --mcp-only) route through the remote brain transparently.

  2. Today's meetings. For each meeting on the calendar:

    • Search gbrain for each participant by name
    • Read their pages from gbrain for compiled_truth context
    • Summarize: who they are, recent timeline, relationship to you
  3. Active deals. List deal pages in gbrain filtered to active status:

    • Deadlines approaching in the next 7 days
    • Recent timeline entries (last 7 days)
  4. Time-sensitive threads. Open items from timeline entries:

    • Items with deadlines in the next 48 hours
    • Follow-ups that are overdue
  5. Recent changes. Pages updated in the last 24 hours:

    • What changed and why (read timeline entries from gbrain)
  6. People in play. List person pages in gbrain sorted by recency:

    • Updated in last 7 days
    • Have high activity (many recent timeline entries)
  7. Stale alerts. From gbrain health check:

    • Pages flagged as stale that are relevant to today's meetings

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.
