Set up, maintain, build, and preview a Brain's private site with dotbrain site, including navigation, themes, and rendering checks.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Brain Site

A **Brain site** is the private site dotbrain renders from one Brain. Every Markdown file in the
Brain is a page, served at its path in the Brain, so relative links between Brain files work on the
site. The Brain owns its content, `.brain/site/site.yaml` (whose nav is the sidebar), the home page
`.brain/site/index.md`, and optional theme extensions; dotbrain owns the engine, which
`dotbrain site` runs from its cache. This skill picks the command, keeps the sidebar, and supplies
the page syntax. It never publishes anything: a Brain site is served on `127.0.0.1` only, and a
project's public docs are not a Brain site.

This skill expects `dotbrain site` from dotbrain 0.4.6 or later, which needs Node 22.12 or later.

## Choose the branch

- **Requested site setup, and the Brain has no `.brain/site/`:** set one up (below).
- **Requested work on an existing site:** find the request in the command table.
- **Writing a page that needs more than plain Markdown:** read
  [publishing.md](references/publishing.md) for lessons and references,
  [vitepress.md](references/vitepress.md) for page pitfalls and native features, and
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add arminzou/dotbrain/brain-site@sha256:5357388c8acd7d91

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.2ef2192, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
