After memory sync is wired (Step 7) but before persisting the CLAUDE.md config (Step 8), ask whether this machine's coding-agent session transcripts may go into gbrain. Curated `~/.gstack/` artifacts (learnings, timeline, plans, designs, retros) sync whatever the answer; this question covers transcripts only. Transcripts are ingested only after the user picks `recent` or `all`. Check whether the user already chose. The gate keys on `has`, because `get` prints the `off` default for a key that was never set: ```bash _TIM=$(~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config get transcript_ingest_mode 2>/dev/null || true) if ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config has transcript_ingest_mode; then case "$(printf '%s' "$_TIM" | tr -d '[:space:]' | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')" in recent|all|off) echo "TRANSCRIPT_MODE: $_TIM" ;; *) echo "TRANSCRIPT_MODE: ask (stored value '$_TIM' is from an older version)" ;; esac else echo "TRANSCRIPT_MODE: ask (not set)" fi ``` - `TRANSCRIPT_MODE: recent`, `all` or `off`: the user already chose. Do not ask again; continue to Step 8. - `TRANSCRIPT_MODE: ask`: ask once, below. With `SESSION_KIND: spawned` or `headless`, do not ask and do not store a value. Consent is never auto-chosen; leave the key unset (transcripts stay skipped) and report that the next interactive `/sync-gbrain` will ask. Size the question with two probes. `--sources transcript` makes the probe count transcripts even though none are consented yet: ```bash bun run ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-memory-ingest.ts --probe --sources transcript bun run ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-memory-ingest.ts --probe --sources transcript --all-history ``` Read `Total files in window`, `Total bytes` and the estimate from each. **No transcripts found** (both probes report 0): ask yes/no instead: > "Ingest coding-agent sessions as they appear?" Yes stores `recent`; No stores `off`. **Otherwise**, AskUserQuestion with the counts. Name both session sources and the destination brain from Step 4: the user's Supabase brain (Paths 1, 2a, 2b) or the local PGLite brain on this machine (Path 3). > "Found Claude Code and Codex sessions from the last 90 days > ( in all history, ) across the projects on this machine > that your repo policy allows. Ingest them into your PGLite> brain? > > What you get: gstack skills load recent context from your past sessions, > so the agent finds your prior work without you describing it, and you > can ask 'what was I doing on day X'.

Options: - A) Yes, last 90 days (`recent`) - B) Yes, all history (`all`) - E) No, never ingest transcripts (`off`) Store the mode value, never the letter: ```bash ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set transcript_ingest_mode ``` For `recent` or `all`, run the first sync now: ```bash bun run ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-gbrain-sync.ts --full --no-brain-sync ``` (`--no-brain-sync` because Step 7 already wired that path; this runs the code import and memory ingest stages, and `all` walks the full history.) For `off`, run nothing here; other memory still syncs on the next `/sync-gbrain`. New transcripts are ingested on the next `/sync-gbrain` run. Nothing at skill start ingests them.
