braindump

braindump is a skill for Claude Code from onebrain-ai/onebrain. It costs 76 tokens per session (825 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A way to process an unstructured stream of thoughts into organized notes and tasks. It separates ideas, facts, projects, questions, feelings, and things to do.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when several unrelated thoughts need sorting into an inbox, project notes, or dated tasks.
Why use it?
It removes the need to organize a long brain dump while writing it. Action items are extracted and other material is filed in suitable places.

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

braindump 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.

Braindump

Capture everything on your mind right now. Don't filter : just say it.


Step 1: Invite the Dump

Say:

Go for it : what's on your mind? Dump everything. I'll sort it out.

Wait for the user to share their thoughts. Don't interrupt.


Step 2: Classify the Content

Silently analyze and classify each item:

Type Description Destination
Task Something to do Extract as task with date
Idea Creative or speculative thought File to inbox
Note Fact, reference, or information File to inbox
Project Something needing a dedicated note Create/update in [projects_folder]/
Question Open question or uncertainty File to inbox with ? tag
Feeling/Reflection Personal reflection or emotion File to inbox

Step 3: Create Inbox File

File immediately : do not ask for confirmation first.

Create [inbox_folder]/YYYY-MM-DD-braindump.md. If a file with that name already exists: glob [inbox_folder]/YYYY-MM-DD-braindump*.md, count matches N, use suffix -NN (zero-padded to 2 digits, e.g. -02, -03):

---
tags: [inbox, braindump]
created: YYYY-MM-DD
---

# Braindump : [Month DD, YYYY]

## Raw Thoughts

[Full text of what the user shared, lightly formatted]

## Ideas

- [idea 1]

## Notes & References

- [note 1]

## Open Questions

- [question]?

## Related Notes

[[Link to relevant existing notes if any]]
(Omit this section if no related notes are found)

Find related notes via the search tools if available; fallback: Glob [projects_folder]/**/*.md, [areas_folder]/**/*.md, [knowledge_folder]/**/*.md, [resources_folder]/**/*.md. For search-tool results, only include candidates with rerank_score ≥ 0.30 (prefer ≥ 0.60) — drop anything below 0.30. Omit ## Related Notes if nothing relevant found (or nothing clears the threshold).


If any item is a direct update, task, or decision for an active project in MEMORY.md (not a passing mention), append a brief note to that project file automatically. Mention it in the confirmation.

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.
