When/what to retrieve — open the brain page for a salient entity before answering from memory.

Re-run or deepen the agent's identity interview. Drives the SHARED bootstrap answer bank (state/interview.json) via `gbrain bootstrap interview --set/--show/--confirm`, then re-renders the identity files with `gbrain bootstrap render --only <FILE> --force`. One answer store, two surfaces: first-boot bootstrap and this re-run skill write the same bank, so an updated answer flows into SOUL.md, USER.md, ACCESS_POLICY.md, and HEARTBEAT.md without hand-editing rendered files. Every answer is the user's own words — never invented.

Tiered LLM extraction pattern for large corpus processing (email archives, document dumps, transcript libraries). A utility-tier model triages and classifies at speed; the reasoning tier does the default deep read; the deep tier is the escalation for the highest-value content. Prevents spending deep-tier money on noise while ensuring the important content gets the best eyes. A deterministic privacy wall runs before any LLM call.

Generic framework for converting external events (SMS, meetings, social mentions) into brain-ingestible signals. Define a transform function, register a webhook URL, and incoming events get processed through the brain pipeline.

Route to Mars (introspective thought partner / demo showman voice persona). Used when the operator wants depth, meaning, or impressive social demos rather than logistics. Mars handles SOLO mode (philosophy, presence, patterns) and DEMO mode (tool-driven showmanship) automatically.

Route to Venus (sharp executive-assistant voice persona). Used for logistics — calendar, tasks, recent messages, brain lookups — at sub-second phone-call latency. The default voice persona unless DEFAULT_PERSONA=mars is set.

Post-call handling for a voice session — turn the transcript into a brain page, post the summary to the operator's messaging surface, archive the audio. The pipeline is the contract; the firing paths are operator-wired (see "Two firing paths" below for what ships today).

External-lookup skill with canonical Convention callout

Rigor Explore compatible skill slug for meaningful and potentially novel deep learning research candidates. Use when the researcher has chosen the task family, dataset, benchmark, evaluation method, provided SOTA references, and wants candidate-only exploration on top of `current_research` with auditable repo understanding, idea gating, fair comparison, and governed experiments written to `explore_outputs/`. Do not use for README-first trusted reproduction, open-ended direction finding, narrow code-only or run-only exploration, passive repo analysis, verified novelty claims, or implicit experimentation.

Rigor Reproduce compatible skill slug for README-first deep learning repository reproduction. Use when the user wants an end-to-end, minimal-trustworthy flow that reads the repository first, selects the smallest documented inference or evaluation target, coordinates intake, setup, trusted execution, optional trusted training, optional repository analysis, and optional paper-gap resolution, enforces conservative patch rules, records evidence assumptions deviations and human decision points, and writes the standardized `repro_outputs/` bundle. Do not use for paper summary, generic environment setup, isolated repo scanning, standalone command execution, silent protocol changes, score chasing, or broad research assistance outside repository-grounded reproduction.

Rigor Train skill for deep learning research repositories. Use when a documented or selected training command should be run conservatively for startup verification, short-run verification, full kickoff, or resume, with command, config, seed, log, checkpoint, status, and metric evidence written to standardized `train_outputs/`. Do not use for environment setup, exploratory sweeps, speculative idea implementation, or end-to-end orchestration.

Rigor Improve / Rigor Explore run leaf skill for bounded exploratory evidence in deep learning research repositories. Use when the researcher explicitly authorizes exploratory runs such as small-subset validation, short-cycle guess-and-check, batch sweeps, idle-GPU search, or quick transfer-learning trials, with fair-comparison caveats and no-overclaim summaries in `explore_outputs/`. Do not use for end-to-end exploration orchestration on top of `current_research`, trusted baseline execution, conservative training verification, default routing, verified SOTA claims, or implicit experimentation.

Search, scrape, crawl, extract structured data, and monitor web pages via the ScrapeGraph AI CLI. Use when the user asks to search the web, scrape a webpage, grab content from a URL, extract JSON from a site, crawl documentation or site sections, monitor a page for changes, inspect request history, check ScrapeGraph credits, or validate API setup.

Web search and content extraction with Tavily and Exa via inference.sh CLI. Apps: Tavily Search, Tavily Extract, Exa Search, Exa Answer, Exa Extract. Capabilities: AI-powered search, content extraction, direct answers, research. Use for: research, RAG pipelines, fact-checking, content aggregation, agents. Triggers: web search, tavily, exa, search api, content extraction, research, internet search, ai search, search assistant, web scraping, rag, perplexity alternative

When the user wants to create sales collateral, pitch decks, one-pagers, objection handling docs, or demo scripts. Also use when the user mentions 'sales deck,' 'pitch deck,' 'one-pager,' 'leave-behind,' 'objection handling,' 'deal-specific ROI analysis,' 'demo script,' 'talk track,' 'sales playbook,' 'proposal template,' 'buyer persona card,' 'battle card,' 'battlecard,' 'competitive one-pager,' 'win-loss analysis,' 'why are we losing deals,' 'loss reasons,' 'how do I respond to this objection,' 'prospect just said,' 'help my sales team,' 'sales materials,' or 'what should I give my sales reps,' 'cold call script,' or 'voicemail script.' Use this for any document or asset that helps a sales team close deals. For public competitor comparison pages, see competitors. For running buyer interviews or churn research, see customer-research. For marketing website copy, see copywriting. For cold outreach emails, see cold-email. For the offer being sold (bonuses, guarantees, pricing structure), see offers.

When the user wants to conduct, analyze, or synthesize customer research. Use when the user mentions "customer research," "ICP research," "talk to customers," "analyze transcripts," "customer interviews," "survey analysis," "support ticket analysis," "voice of customer," "VOC," "build personas," "customer personas," "jobs to be done," "JTBD," "what do customers say," "what are customers struggling with," "Reddit mining," "G2 reviews," "review mining," "digital watering holes," "community research," "forum research," "competitor reviews," "customer sentiment," "PMF survey," "product/market fit survey," "customer interview questions," "interview outreach," "Sales Safari," or "find out why customers churn/convert/buy." Use for analyzing existing research assets, mining online sources, AND running primary research (interviews and surveys). For writing copy informed by research, see copywriting. For acting on research to improve pages, see cro.
