build-brain

build-brain is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Vladick-Pick/business-ontology. It costs 35 tokens per session (3,083 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A compiler that turns accepted Markdown or Git records of a business model into a searchable graph of connected items. A graph stores nodes and relationships so software can traverse them instead of reading prose.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after accepted cards change to create the registry files, check their links, and prepare the model for dashboards, MCP servers, or agents.
Why use it?
Dashboards, agents, and other consumers need structured connections and stable identifiers to answer relationship or impact questions consistently.

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

build-brain 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 11d 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 — 146 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Build brain

Purpose

The accepted Markdown/Git export is the current compile input. The target operational source of truth is the canonical model store; until that service exists, the accepted export is the reviewed, portable model surface the registry compiler reads. A consumer — a dashboard interpreter, a financial overlay, the OpenClaw agent in team chat, an MCP server — cannot ask "what does the attraction module produce?" or "what is the impact radius if this interface changes?" against prose. It needs a graph: typed nodes and edges keyed by stable id.

Build brain runs scripts/build_registry.py to compile the accepted cards into nodes.json, edges.json, and manifest.json, then checks integrity. This is the step that turns "agent-queryable" from a promise into a fact. You run it so the model can be traversed, not just read.

Why it matters that this is a compile, not authoring: the registry is derived. Nobody edits it by hand. If the graph and the accepted export disagree, fix the accepted model/export sync and recompile — never patch the JSON. A hand-edited registry is a second, silently-drifting truth surface, which is exactly the failure this kit exists to prevent.

When to use

Run build brain when any of these is true:

  • A card was just promoted from staged/ to accepted (the model grew).
  • Links were added, removed, or rewired between cards.
  • You are about to hand the model to a consumer (dashboard, MCP, agent, overlay) and need a current, valid graph.
  • The cadence sweep promoted reviewed cards and you want the registry to reflect them.
  • The user asks to "build/rebuild the brain", "recompile the registry", "rebuild the graph", or "validate the links".

This skill is self-initiated: after a promotion lands, you don't wait to be asked — you recompile and show the result, because a stale registry is worse than no registry (it answers queries with old reality).

Do not run it as part of authoring or while cards are still staged. Staged cards are proposals, not committed reality; compiling them would let an unapproved proposal answer queries as if it were true.

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.

build-brain is a skill published in the GitHub repository Vladick-Pick/business-ontology (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 3,083 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
