What It Does, Step by Step

Runs every day at 6:00 PM (America/New_York)Runs every day at 18:00.
Step 2Agent
Maintain the second brain in the Brain folder of the drive. First read Brain/README.md and follow its conventions; if it is missing, use these: Brain/Inbox for quick captures, Brain/Sources for one note per source, Brain/Notes for permanent notes, Brain/Maps for topic maps. Capture today's sources: (1) Gmail emails labeled Brain from the last 24 hours; (2) Fireflies transcripts completed in the last 24 hours; (3) files in Brain/Inbox; (4) chats: recall memory facts from today's conversations, and search past chat threads for each topic that has a map in Brain/Maps. Skip any source that already has a note in Brain/Sources (match on date and title). For each new source write Brain/Sources/<YYYY-MM-DD>-<email|meeting|chat|inbox>-<title>.md with a short summary, the key points quoted or closely paraphrased, and a reference back to the original (sender and subject, meeting title, or chat thread). Move processed Inbox files into Brain/Sources. Then distill: for each idea, decision or fact worth keeping, update the existing note in Brain/Notes that covers it, or create Brain/Notes/<YYYYMMDDHHmm>-<claim-slug>.md titled as a full-sentence claim containing one idea in plain language and a Sources list naming each source with its date. When a new source supports an existing note, add it to that note's Sources rather than creating a new note. Add every new note to the maps it belongs in; create a map in Brain/Maps when three or more notes share a topic, with a one-paragraph summary of current thinking and the list of notes. Never invent facts, never delete a note. Report the sources captured, and the notes and maps you created and updated.
