reports

reports is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from garrytan/gbrain. It costs 64 tokens per session (1,423 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for saving, finding, and loading timestamped written reports in a personal knowledge base. It organises reports by category and checks whether their links lead directly to useful actions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for morning briefings, meeting digests, inbox or email reports, social-mention reports, research reports, and other scheduled outputs.
Why use it?
It prevents recurring reports from being scattered or difficult to retrieve. Link checking also reduces briefings and digests that contain unusable or indirect links.

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

reports 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 3d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 146 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Reports Skill

Contract

This skill guarantees:

  • Reports saved with timestamped filenames and frontmatter
  • Keyword routing: query → report category mapping
  • Latest report loadable by category name
  • Reports are searchable via gbrain search/query
  • Outbound reports pass the Actionability Gate (below) before delivery

Phases

  1. Save report. Write to reports/{category}/{YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM}.md with frontmatter:
    ---
    title: {report title}
    type: report
    category: {category name}
    date: {YYYY-MM-DD}
    time: {HH:MM PT}
    ---
    
  2. Load latest. Given a category, find the most recent report file.
  3. Keyword routing. Map common queries to report categories:
    • "email" / "inbox" → ea-inbox-sweep
    • "social" / "mentions" → social-mentions
    • "briefing" / "morning" → morning-briefing
    • "meeting" → meeting-sync
    • Custom mappings configurable

Output Format

Saved: reports/{category}/{YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM}.md Loaded: full report content with metadata.

Actionability Gate

Before any report reaches the user — a morning briefing, a meeting digest, a research report — every link must answer one question: can the user click this and immediately act? The link canon (deterministic, never-guessed URLs) lives in skills/_output-rules.md under Deterministic Links; this gate adds the delivery-time failure taxonomy and the retry loop.

Four failure modes

Mode What it means Example
Broken Link is fake or a placeholder https://example.com, TODO-find-link
Dead Link to a brain page that isn't committed/pushed Page written but not pushed — the link 404s
Indirect Link goes somewhere, but not the right place x.com/alice-example (profile) instead of x.com/alice-example/status/<id> (the specific post)
Missing Actionable item mentioned with no link at all "the clip making the rounds (~800K views)" with no URL

Broken, Dead, and Indirect block delivery. Missing is a warning — flag it, don't block. A missing link is honest. An indirect link is a broken promise.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

reports is a skill published in the GitHub repository garrytan/gbrain (29,440 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 64 tokens to every session and 1,423 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
