Day-one data bootstrapping for a new brain. Sequences the highest-leverage data sources to go from empty brain to useful brain in one session. Uses ClawVisor for safe credential handling — the agent never holds raw API keys. Covers Gmail import, calendar sync, contacts seeding, X/Twitter archive, conversation imports, and file archives. Use when a user has just finished gbrain setup and asks "now what?"

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'cold-start' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'cold-start' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named cold-start already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/garrytan/gbrain' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '001c8c39e84d726e9bb6ecbae053458c970d5af3' -- 'skills/cold-start' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/cold-start' ~/.agents/skills/'cold-start' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'cold-start' ~/.claude/skills/'cold-start' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
