A personal, append-only second brain for Cowork and Claude Code. You dump raw material; the librarian
folds it into a clean, lifecycle-tagged wiki/ and answers your questions always with sources, never
inventing. Each person runs /setup-second-brain to generate their own private brain folder — no one's
private notes live in this repo.
setup-second-brain— interviews you and scaffolds a personal brain (folders + a tailoredCLAUDE.md- conventions + portfolio index + sources config). The brain folder is created on your machine; it is never part of this repo.
brain-capture— capture a conversation, fold unfiledraw/notes, or promote staged_inbox/items into the wiki. Writes (append-onlyraw/, additivewiki/).ask-brain— read-only: routes via the portfolio index, answers with cited pages, logs tooutputs/.process-meeting— transcript → meeting page (weighted routing; ambiguous →_inbox/).pull-meet-notes— daily Gemini Meet ingest from Google Drive (config/autoFold-aware; staged).kb-health-check— read-only audit (incl. lifecycle & inbox hygiene).brain-consolidate— sleep-cycle consolidation: Light (ingest), REM (weekly associative pass, cited, propose-only), Deep (monthly compaction + curated promotion of durable facts into Claude’s persistent memory, confirm-gated). Memory promotion is a hot cache of how you think, never a wiki mirror.
The skills discover the brain by the connected folder whose CLAUDE.md contains "Second Brain
Librarian" and has a wiki/ — nothing is hardcoded, so the same plugin works for everyone.
Organization (recommended). An admin adds this repo as a marketplace and sets the second-brain plugin
to auto-install; team members get it automatically (Cowork: + → Plugins). See
Organization settings → Plugins.

- Run
/setup-second-brainand answer a few questions. - Keep the brain folder connected and start dumping: "save this to my brain", "ask my brain …".
This repository contains only the plugin (skills + manifests). Personal brains — raw/, wiki/,
_inbox/, _state/, outputs/ — are generated locally per user and are git-ignored here.
