95 / 100 · Low risk

Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Before fixing a slow/stale/timeout alert, measure the step yourself. Kill the theory with a stopwatch, not a code change. Measure-first ops triage for temporal alerts (stale, timeout, freshness, wedged, N hours behind) from gbrain doctor, autopilot, sync, and cron monitors — runs BEFORE any timeout raise, threshold change, or pipeline rewrite.

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/'measure-before-you-fix' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'measure-before-you-fix' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named measure-before-you-fix 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 "$d" checkout --quiet '001c8c39e84d726e9bb6ecbae053458c970d5af3' -- 'skills/measure-before-you-fix' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/measure-before-you-fix' ~/.agents/skills/'measure-before-you-fix' && 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/'measure-before-you-fix' ~/.claude/skills/'measure-before-you-fix' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
