perplexity-research

by gbrain

Brain-augmented web research. Sends brain context about a topic to Perplexity, which searches the web with citations and returns what is NEW vs what the brain already knows. Use for entity enrichment, current-state checks, deal monitoring, and freshness deltas. NOT for simple URL fetches (use web_fetch) or brain-only queries (use gbrain query).

brain-opsBrain knowledge base operations. The core read/write cycle: brain-first lookup, read-enrich-write loop, source attribution, ambient enrichment, back-linking. Read this before any brain interaction.0 installs skillpack-checkRun `gbrain skillpack-check` to produce an agent-readable JSON health report for the gbrain install. Wraps `gbrain doctor` + `gbrain apply-migrations --list` so a host agent (your OpenClaw's morning-briefing, any OpenClaw cron) can see at a glance whether the skillpack needs attention. Use when the user asks "is gbrain healthy?", when a cron fires a morning check, or proactively when something seems off (jobs not running, brain not updating, autopilot silent).0 installs daily-task-managerTask lifecycle management with stable task IDs. Add, complete, defer, remove, and review tasks with deterministic action routing and fail-closed ambiguity handling. Maintains a running task list as a brain page.0 installs context-auditToken-hygiene audit of the always-loaded context stack — CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, auto-memory MEMORY.md, and the bootstrap-rendered identity files (SOUL.md, USER.md, ACCESS_POLICY.md, HEARTBEAT.md) or their harness equivalents. Finds redundancy, contradictions, stale content, compression candidates, and skill-extraction candidates; produces a ranked action list sorted by token savings with a risk class per finding. REPORT-ONLY: this skill never edits any audited file. Recommendations for bootstrap-rendered files target the interview answer bank / templates, never the rendered output. Judging routes through `gbrain eval cross-modal` (single cheap model by default; full multi-model panel is explicit opt-in).0 installs company-brainifyExtract a sanitized shared team/company brain from a personal brain. Strips internal ratings, compensation, performance assessments, retention and political dynamics from pages, takes, and facts across the full scan scope (people, companies, meetings, dailies, cross-references — not just people/), verifies with grep + retrieval passes, and purges sensitive git history behind the data-loss-gate confirmation card. Also runs as a report-only re-audit on an existing shared brain.0 installs enrichEnrich brain pages with tiered enrichment protocol. Creates and updates person/company pages with compiled truth, timeline, and cross-links. Use when a new entity is mentioned or an existing page needs updating.0 installs

academic-verifyVerify a research claim or academic citation by tracing it through publication → methodology → raw data → independent replication. Routes through perplexity-research for the actual web lookup, then formats results as a citation-checked brain page. Use when a book/article/conversation cites a study and you want to confirm the claim is real, replicated, and accurately characterized.0 installs article-enrichmentTransform raw article text dumps in the brain into structured pages with executive summary, verbatim quotes, key insights, why-it-matters, and cross-references. Replaces walls-of-text with quotable, actionable brain pages.0 installs ask-userReusable pattern for presenting the user with explicit choices and gating execution until they respond. Used by other skills when a decision point requires human input before proceeding. Platform-agnostic — works on Telegram (inline buttons), Discord, CLI, or any agent with a message tool.0 installs book-mirrorTake any book (EPUB/PDF), produce a personalized chapter-by-chapter analysis. Each chapter is preserved in detail (The Chapter) and mirrored back to the reader's actual life (The Mirror) using brain context. The mirror observes and resonates — a friend pointing out parallels, NOT a consultant rearranging the reader's life, NOT a therapist assigning homework. The reader decides what to do about it. Layout is a top-aligned HTML table or stacked sections, never a bare markdown pipe table (pipe tables center-misalign uneven columns). Output is a single brain page at media/books/<slug>-personalized.md plus an optional PDF via brain-pdf.0 installs brain-link-disciplineWhen you report a brain page to the user — created, edited, committed, or relayed from a subagent — a working link is part of the deliverable, in the SAME message. Derive the path mechanically (git ls-files --full-name), push BEFORE linking, verify the link resolves when a hosted remote exists, and degrade through a defined fallback chain when it doesn't. Inside brain pages the rule inverts: relative links preserve the link graph; absolute URLs are for chat deliverables only.0 installs gbrainSearch and write the company knowledge brain. Use for any question about the org, people, projects, decisions, or history, and to persist durable knowledge beyond this scope's notebook.0 installs
