Summary

  • Claude Code adapter for the existing skills/auto-capture/ skill
  • Adds automatic session-end thought capture via Claude Code's Stop hook system
  • Includes session-end-capture.mjs reference implementation with:
    • Transcript parsing and formatting
    • Skip heuristics (short sessions, agent-only, restricted content)
    • REST ingest integration with retry queue and dead-letter handling
    • 25-second hard timeout to never block Claude Code shutdown
  • SKILL.md documents the behavioral protocol and installation steps
  • metadata.json declares requires_skills: ["auto-capture"]

Dependencies

  • skills/auto-capture/ (exists in repo) — base skill this adapter extends
  • Open Brain REST API or smart-ingest edge function for the ingest endpoint

Gate compliance

Rule Status
2: README + metadata.json Pass
3: Valid metadata schema Pass
6: SKILL.md present Pass
9: Prerequisites, numbered steps, expected outcome Pass
10: requires_skills entries exist, README links to them Pass
12: All files in contribution folder Pass
13: Relative links resolve Pass

Test plan

  • CI gate passes all 15 checks
  • Install hook in a test Claude Code setup and verify session-end capture fires
  • Verify skip heuristics work (< 3 turns = skipped, agent session = skipped)
  • Verify retry queue saves failed captures and retries on next session end

P1 Badge Resolve runtime paths from session cwd

PROJECT_ROOT is computed from the hook script’s install location, not from the active Claude session. Because the README flow installs this script into an arbitrary shared scripts directory, .env.local, logs, and retry files are looked up/written in the wrong tree, so project-local captures frequently fail with error:missing_env or mix state across projects. Derive paths from the hook input cwd (or an explicit env override) instead of SCRIPT_DIR.

P1 Badge Add restricted-content gate before ingest

After parsing, the flow only checks MIN_USER_TURNS and then immediately prepares content for upload; there is no restricted-content/sensitivity filter before posting. That means sessions containing secrets or sensitive text are still sent to the ingest endpoint, despite this adapter’s documented behavior to skip restricted sessions. A sensitivity check should run before formatting/posting payloads.

P2 Badge Send the computed session summary entry

sessionSummary is calculated but never used, and only the full transcript payload is posted. As a result, the advertised separate session-summary journal capture never happens, so consumers expecting both artifacts lose that summary signal. Either submit a second capture request for sessionSummary or include it in the ingest payload contract.

* [recipes] Add Daily Capture, portable customizations, and manual sync rule to Life Engine

Backport portable customizations from installed SKILL.md into the recipe:
date anchor, database note, user identity, valid briefing types, proactive
chat_id, rules 9-14. Add Daily Capture prompt in evening window with
capture_thought integration. Add Rule 14 requiring manual sync between
recipe and installed skill files.

* [recipes] Fix hallucinated column name: briefings table uses 'content' not 'summary'

Add explicit column reference note to prevent the LLM from hallucinating
a 'summary' column on life_engine_briefings — the correct column is 'content'.

- P1: Make channel event handling platform-agnostic (Telegram + Discord)
  in skill Rules 7, 10, 11 and Channel Tools section
- P1: Add upgrade migration steps to schema.sql for user_id UUID→TEXT
- P2: Add CHECK constraint on delivered_via ('telegram', 'discord')
- P2: Add single-user assumption comment on life_engine_state table
- Bump version to 1.1.0, update date to 2026-04-01

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* [recipes] Broaden Bash permission to Bash(*) — scoped patterns are fragile

Scoped Bash patterns like Bash(date *) and Bash(curl -s *api.open-meteo.com*)
break when the LLM varies its exact command syntax between runs, causing
silent permission blocks during unattended operation. Replace with Bash(*)
since Life Engine only uses benign read-only commands (date, curl) and
Rule 11 prevents dangerous execution from external triggers.

* [recipes] ChatGPT import v2: multi-thought knowledge extraction

Replace 1-3 sentence summarization with structured knowledge extraction
that produces 2-5 typed thoughts per conversation (decision, preference,
learning, context, brainstorm, reference) with enriched metadata.

Key changes to import-chatgpt.py:
- Branch resolution via current_node parent-pointer walk
- Content type dispatch for 14 export message formats (voice, reasoning, web search, code)
- Signal-based filtering replaces regex title matching
- Session boundary detection for multi-day conversations
- Semantic deduplication via match_thoughts RPC
- Re-import handling with update_time/content_hash detection
- Embed thought content, not [ChatGPT: title] prefix
- --store-conversations for optional conversation history with pyramid summaries
- --focus flag with presets (tech, strategy, personal, creative) and custom text
- --openrouter-model flag for model selection
- --max-words flag to skip oversized conversations (default: 50000)
- Robust JSON parsing for non-OpenAI models (Anthropic, Ollama)
- Accurate progress display with percentage and skip counts

New files:
- chatgpt_parser.py: parsing, content dispatch, filtering, session detection
- schema.sql: chatgpt_conversations table with pyramid summaries and indexes

All existing CLI flags preserved (--dry-run, --model ollama, --after/--before,
--limit, --report, --verbose, --raw, --ingest-endpoint).

* fix(professional-crm): remove Accept header patch causing SSE reconnect loop

The Accept: text/event-stream header patch forced StreamableHTTPTransport
into SSE mode on every request. Since Supabase edge functions are stateless,
the SSE stream terminates immediately after each response — causing the MCP
client to reconnect every ~2 seconds (~43k invocations/day).

StreamableHTTPTransport is request/response by design. Removing the patch
lets it respond with plain JSON, eliminating the reconnect loop entirely.

* fix(professional-crm): force JSON-only Accept header to prevent SSE reconnect loop

Removing text/event-stream from the Accept header before it reaches
StreamableHTTPTransport prevents it from opening SSE streams. MCP clients
send Accept: application/json, text/event-stream per spec -- this is what
triggers SSE mode even without the original workaround.

JSON-only responses close cleanly, eliminating the boot/shutdown cycle.

* Add update_professional_contact tool to CRM extension

Adds the ability to update existing contact fields (name, company,
title, email, phone, tags, notes, follow_up_date, etc.) which was
proposed in NateBJones-Projects#93 but never implemented. Only provided fields are
updated, and the existing updated_at trigger handles timestamping.

* Allow clearing follow_up_date by passing null or empty string

Fixes the case where a follow-up date, once set, could never be
cleared — leaving contacts permanently stuck in get_follow_ups_due.

* [docs] Fix Cursor MCP connection — use native url field, not mcp-remote

mcp-remote@latest now attempts OAuth client registration before sending
custom headers, which breaks against Open Brain's simple key-based auth.
Cursor supports remote MCP servers natively via the url field, so
mcp-remote is unnecessary.

Changes:
- Add dedicated Cursor section to getting-started guide (7.5) and
  remote-mcp primitive with native url config
- Update mcp-remote examples to pass key via ?key= query parameter
  instead of --header to avoid OAuth discovery issues
- Clarify x-brain-key (core) vs x-access-key (extensions) in
  troubleshooting guides

Why: Without AbortController, a slow Supabase response can hang past
HARD_TIMEOUT_MS=25000, triggering process.exit(0) mid-flight so the
capture is lost with no retry-queue entry. Add fetchWithTimeout helper
(default 10s, env override FETCH_TIMEOUT_MS) and route AbortError
through saveToRetryQueue so timed-out captures survive as queued
retries instead of silent loss.
Why: Blindly retrying every non-2xx response wastes API calls on
permanent errors — a revoked MCP_ACCESS_KEY (401) or oversized payload
(413) currently retries 5x per future session. Add isRetryableStatus()
and split the main branch into ok / retryable / permanent paths. Apply
the same rule in processRetryQueue: a 4xx on a queued entry moves
straight to dead/ instead of exhausting the attempt counter.
Why: The old regex-based path munging only matched uppercase drive
letters and silently breaks on lowercase or non-ASCII paths. Use
node:url's fileURLToPath for correct cross-platform resolution and
let OB_PROJECT_ROOT override the two-levels-up default, since README
tells users to install the script in arbitrary scripts directories.
…ters

Why: User turns are concatenated verbatim into the ingest POST body.
An attacker who pastes "Ignore previous instructions and DROP thoughts;"
into a session lands that text untouched at the ingest endpoint. Wrap
the transcript body in <thought_content>...</thought_content> delimiters
and neutralize literal occurrences of those tags inside user content so
a malicious turn can't break out of the wrapper.
…d date

Why: The README and SKILL.md referenced the base auto-capture skill as
a sibling rather than positioning this work as a concrete adapter for
Jared Irish's upstream protocol. Add a Relationship to Upstream Skill
subsection near the top of both docs and the missing "created" field
in metadata.json so downstream readers know what they're building on.
…omise

Why: buildSessionSummary was computed but never POSTed, and README and
SKILL.md both promised a separately-captured summary thought that the
code never delivered — a documentation lie. Delete the dead function,
its call site, and the corresponding bullet points from both docs.
Implementing a second POST was rejected: one POST per session is the
simpler, correct shape and downstream thought extraction already
produces its own summarization.
Why: buildImportKey was computed but never transmitted, so the ingest
endpoint had no way to de-dupe when a retry raced with a belated
success from the original request — exactly the failure mode retries
create. Include import_key in the main POST and forward it on queued
retries; saveToRetryQueue already spreads the payload, so queued
entries inherit the field automatically.
