brain-conflicts

brain-conflicts is a skill for Claude Code from toroleapinc/claude-brain. It costs 12 tokens per session (316 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A guided workflow for reviewing disagreements between copies of shared Agent Brain memory. A conflict occurs when two machines have different versions of the same stored topic.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to accept a suggested resolution, keep either machine's version, keep both with machine labels, or enter a custom resolution before syncing.
Why use it?
It shows both versions and records your choice, so unresolved differences do not remain ambiguous.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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 B, and why

brain-conflicts scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 6d 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.

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

What it actually says

The user wants to resolve pending brain merge conflicts.

Steps

  1. Read the conflicts file:

    cat ~/.claude/brain-conflicts.json 2>/dev/null || echo '{"conflicts":[]}'
    
  2. Filter to unresolved conflicts (where resolved is not true).

  3. If no unresolved conflicts, tell the user: "No pending conflicts. Brain is fully synced."

  4. For each unresolved conflict, present:

    • The topic
    • What Machine A says
    • What Machine B says
    • The AI's suggestion and confidence level

    Ask the user to choose:

    • Accept AI suggestion: Apply the suggestion
    • Keep Machine A's version: Use A's content
    • Keep Machine B's version: Use B's content
    • Keep both (machine-specific): Tag each with its machine name
    • Custom: Let the user type their own resolution
  5. After each resolution:

    • Mark the conflict as resolved: true with the chosen resolution in brain-conflicts.json
    • Apply the resolution to the appropriate brain file (CLAUDE.md, memory, etc.)
  6. After all conflicts are resolved:

    bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/push.sh"
    
  7. Show summary: "X conflicts resolved. Brain is now fully synced."

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.

brain-conflicts is a skill published in the GitHub repository toroleapinc/claude-brain (85 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 12 tokens to every session and 316 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories).
