Personalize COG Second Brain workflow through role pack selection and vault initialization.
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
- Configure one of 7 role packs: Product Manager, Engineering Lead, Engineer, Designer, Founder, Marketer, Custom
- Set up user profile with interests, domains, and news sources
- Configure external integrations (GitHub, Linear, Slack, PostHog)
- Create personalized workflow templates based on role
- Initialize Git tracking for the vault
## Tool Use Instructions
1. Use `file-read` to check for existing vault at the specified path
2. Use `directory-create` to build the COG directory structure
3. Use `file-write` to create profile.md in 00-inbox with role pack configuration
4. Use `git-init` to initialize Git repository in the vault
5. Use `file-write` to create .gitignore with privacy-sensitive patterns
6. Use `git-commit` to commit initial vault structure
## Examples
```json
{
"userName": "Alex",
"rolePack": "engineer",
"vaultPath": "./cog-vault",
"integrations": {
"github": { "org": "my-org", "repos": ["main-repo"] }
}
}

How to install
mdr add a5c-ai/babysitter/cog-onboarding@sha256:b150c294887eaf2aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260601.da7723a, 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.
