Two-mode, vault-aware, structured-vault-compatible.\n\n## What is brain-kit?\n\nbrain-kit packages a set of skills that let Claude Code build and maintain a personal knowledge layer in any markdown vault: a behavioral model of you (partner-model), a workspace contract (mini-vaults for each project), session dev logs, and a one-shot vault initializer (brain-init). It's a portable, reusable set of patterns that work in any markdown directory.\n\n## Why\n\n- Personal context that survives across sessions, not just within\n- Project structure that AI agents can navigate without rediscovery each session\n- Persistent dev logs that capture *why*, not just *what* (read by future agents)\n- Behavioral patterns observed once, applied always\n- Vault-agnostic: works in any markdown directory, not tied to one tool\n\n## Two modes\n\n- **Minimal** — loose conventions, no frontmatter requirements. Get going fast.\n- **Strict** — typed-note ontology with `type:`/`kind:` frontmatter. Use when you want full structure or interop with structured-vault tooling.\n\nMode is chosen at init time and recorded in `.vault.toml`.\n\n## Skills\n\n| Skill | Purpose | Subcommands |\n|---|---|---|\n| `partner-model` | Maintains a behavioral model of you | `bootstrap`, `consolidate` |\n| `workspaces` | Create + audit mini-vault workspaces | `create`, audit on existing |\n| `dev-log` | Session log writing + workspace integration | `init`, `write` |\n| `brain-init` | One-shot vault setup for a fresh directory | (none — single command) |\n\n## Install\n\n```bash\ngit clone git@github.com:dbtlr/brain-kit.git ~/workspaces/brain-kit\nln -s ~/workspaces/brain-kit ~/.claude/plugins/brain-kit\n```\n\nVerify:\n\n```bash\nls ~/.claude/plugins/brain-kit/plugin.json\n```\n\n## Quick start\n\nIn Claude Code, from your vault directory:\n\n```\n/brain-init           # bootstrap the vault (asks mode, profile, persona)\n/workspaces create    # add your first workspace (asks name)\n/devlog write         # write your first session log\n```\n\n## Documentation\n\nEach topic has a dedicated reference:\n\n- [bootstrapping.md](references/bootstrapping.md) — full setup guide, troubleshooting\n- [vault-config.md](references/vault-config.md) — `.vault.toml` field-by-field\n- [workspace-contract.md](references/workspace-contract.md) — mini-vault structure\n- [partner-model-schema.md](references/partner-model-schema.md) — log + model schemas\n- [strict-mode-ontology.md](references/strict-mode-ontology.md) — typed-note ontology\n\n## Status\n\n\u003e **v0.1.0 — pre-1.0, breaking changes possible.** Ships as a working pilot. APIs and config schema may shift before v1.0.\n\n## Optional dependencies\n\nFor schema validation (`scripts/validate-vault-config.sh`):\n\n- `dasel` — TOML→JSON converter\n- `ajv-cli` — JSON Schema validator\n\nWithout these, validation is skipped silently. brain-kit works fine without them.\n\n## Origin\n\nbrain-kit extracts and generalizes the partner-model, mini-vault workspaces, and dev-log patterns from a personal Obsidian vault running this stack natively. The inline versions predate brain-kit; migration to the portable plugin form is planned for a later release once the pilot validates the portable design.\n\n## Contributing\n\nPre-1.0 means breaking changes happen. File issues at github.com/dbtlr/brain-kit/issues. PRs welcome but ping first if scope is non-trivial.\n\n## License\n\nMIT — see plugin.json author field for contact.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdbtlr%2Fbrain-kit","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdbtlr%2Fbrain-kit","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdbtlr%2Fbrain-kit/lists"}
