Search 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.

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

# gbrain — the company brain

This sandbox has the `gbrain` CLI connected (thin-client) to the org's central
brain. It is the deep, indexed, cross-source memory: org docs, shared channel
knowledge, and every agent's durable notes. Your scope's own notebook stays the
fast per-turn memory; the brain is where knowledge outlives a scope and becomes
searchable by everyone entitled to it.

## First-run setup (once per sandbox — skip if `gbrain remote doctor` passes)

Your scope's brain credentials arrive via the deployment's secret handoff
(keychain entry or one-time secret drop named `gbrain`). Then:

```bash
gbrain init --mcp-only \
  --issuer-url "https://brain.<org>.com" \
  --mcp-url "https://brain.<org>.com/mcp" \
  --oauth-client-id "<client id from the handoff>" \
  --oauth-client-secret "<client secret from the handoff>"
gbrain whoami   # must succeed before using any other command
```

Pass the secret with `--oauth-client-secret`, not via `GBRAIN_REMOTE_CLIENT_SECRET`:
an env-sourced secret is deliberately NOT written to `~/.gbrain/config.json`, so
every later command would fail with "No client_secret available" once the
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add garrytan/gbrain/gbrain@sha256:c1f15bf15526d955

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260801.aff34a4, 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.
