query SKILL.md skillA
This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed, one of 3 indexed copies. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
query from garrytan/gbrain is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add garrytan/gbrain/query@v1.0.0Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Answer questions using the brain's knowledge with 3-layer search, synthesis, and citation propagation. Use when the user asks a question, wants a lookup, or needs information from the brain.
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
# Query Skill Answer questions using the brain's knowledge with 3-layer search and synthesis. > **Memory verbs (MEMORY_VERBS v1, gbrain ≥ 0.43).** When connected to a brain > over MCP, prefer the seven frozen memory verbs for memory work — they carry > provenance, evidence, and a server-enforced token budget: > - **`recall(query | entity, budget_tokens)`** — the budget-packed memory read. > Use it instead of bare `search` for "what do we know that we SAVED about X". > - **`entity(name)`** — a zero-LLM person/company/project card (aliases, > last-touched, open threads, top edges). Use it instead of `get_page` + > `get_backlinks` when you just need the card. > - **`synthesize(question)`** — the explicitly-expensive cross-page answer; the > heavy version of `query`. Reach for it only when the answer must combine > evidence across pages. > Fall back to `search`/`query`/`get_page` when the verbs aren't on the surface > (pre-0.43 servers; `--surface full` includes the verbs alongside every other > op). See `docs/protocol/MEMORY_VERBS_v1.md`. ## Contract This skill guarantees: - Every answer is grounded in brain content (no hallucination) …

How to install
mdr add garrytan/gbrain/query@sha256:48adeb67d57ebc63The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
