Brain Setup

name
brain-setup
description
Use when the tables described in /brain/SETUP.md do not exist yet, the user asks to set up the knowledge base or company brain, or list_tables shows a table from the setup doc is missing.

Goal

Create the machinery the brain needs, and leave behind a taxonomy and an intake document that match this company rather than the template's guesses.

Steps

  1. Call list_tables. If all three tables already exist, stop and say so — do not recreate a table a human may have adjusted on purpose.
  2. Read /brain/SETUP.md. It is the specification; you are executing it. If a column looks wrong, raise it before creating anything.
  3. Ask what the company does, what areas knowledge falls into, and who owns each area. Three questions. Do not interview the user about columns.
  4. Confirm the plan in a few lines, then create the three tables with create_data_table exactly as specified.
  5. Create /brain/inbox/README.md and /brain/archive/README.md with short headers saying what belongs in each and what happens to it.
  6. Rewrite /brain/TAXONOMY.md with the company's real areas and owners. Delete the starter set — leaving both is how a taxonomy becomes ambiguous on day one.
  7. Rewrite /brain/INTAKE.md, replacing every placeholder with the real table id and column ids read back from list_tables.
  8. Write the company context into /SUBTERRANEAN.md.
  9. Report what was created, then give the activation step verbatim: open a session with Curator and say "activate".

Do not

  • Do not skip steps 6 and 7. A brain with a generic taxonomy and a placeholder intake document is a folder, not a brain.
  • Do not write knowledge pages during setup. Setup builds the shelves; Archivist fills them.
  • Do not configure another agent's triggers or heartbeat. That is step 9's job, in Curator's own session.
