Garry Tanandcapy-ai[bot] ab9a854be2 v1.91.246.0 docs(readme): cut the README to the first ten minutes; move everything else to docs/ pages verbatim (GSTA-99) (#3428)
* docs(readme): cut the README to the first ten minutes; move everything else to docs/ pages verbatim (GSTA-99)

Co-authored-by: capy-ai[bot] <230910855+capy-ai[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>

* fix: pre-landing review fixes

Restore the /setup-gbrain code block the README split left open: README.md kept
the ```bash opener and docs/gbrain-quick-tour.md got only the closing fence, so
both pages rendered their body as one code block. Drop the self-referential
'Full reference' link in docs/domain-skills.md and make the troubleshooting
quick-answer link an in-page anchor.

* docs: describe the proactive core-set default in why-gstack

The moved 'Proactive skill suggestions' paragraph now documents the four-skill
core set, gstack-config set proactive core|all|off and the docs/proactive.md
page that #3432 (gsta-99-proactive-core) adds; the CHANGELOG names it as the one
non-verbatim paragraph of the move.

* fix: pre-landing review fixes (round 2)

Promote docs/uninstall.md's moved sections from ### to ## so the page outline
matches the other pages the README split created; no inbound link targets
those anchors.

* docs: documentation audit fixes

The README Docs table no longer claims docs/standalone-binaries.md covers
every gstack-* CLI (it documents the standalone ones), and
docs/ADDING_A_HOST.md step 6 points at the README host-matrix row and
docs/hosts.md, where the per-host notes now live.

* docs: disclose the update check fully and list every setup hook

The README privacy summary now names both GitHub requests the update check
makes and the version/OS report it adds with telemetry on, as the full text
it replaced did. docs/install.md's hooks section lists the team-mode
SessionStart hook and the AskUserQuestion PreToolUse/PostToolUse hooks beside
the timeline Stop hook.

* docs: name the update check's conditional compare-API request

bin/gstack-update-check also GETs api.github.com's compare endpoint when the
remote VERSION equals the local one but main has moved; the README privacy
summary and docs/privacy.md now list it beside the ls-remote and VERSION
fetch (documentation audit).

* fix: pre-landing review fixes (merge resolution)

docs/install.md:21 carried main's stable-channel sentence twice after the
merge, the second copy with its backticked spans stripped; the paragraph
again matches README.md:41 verbatim with the relative link.

* docs: say outside reviews are on by default in the README privacy summary

The one-paragraph summary dropped the default-on disclosure the full text
kept; mirror docs/privacy.md's parenthetical so the top-level page says which
path sends code off-machine without an opt-in.

* v1.91.246.0 stamp

# GBrain with gstack: the quick tour
The short version of [USING_GBRAIN_WITH_GSTACK.md](../USING_GBRAIN_WITH_GSTACK.md), which has every scenario, flag, helper bin and troubleshooting step. This page is what the README used to say.
```bash
/setup-gbrain
```
Four paths, pick one:
- **Supabase, existing URL** — your cloud agent already provisioned a brain; paste the Session Pooler URL, now this laptop uses the same data.
- **Supabase, auto-provision** — paste a Supabase Personal Access Token; the skill creates a new project, polls to healthy, fetches the pooler URL, hands it to `gbrain init`. ~90 seconds end-to-end.
- **PGLite local** — zero accounts, zero network, ~30 seconds. Isolated brain on this Mac only. Great for try-first; migrate to Supabase later with `/setup-gbrain --switch`.
- **Remote gbrain MCP** — your brain runs on another machine (Tailscale, ngrok, internal LAN) or a teammate's server; paste an MCP URL and bearer token. Optionally pair with a local PGLite for symbol-aware code search in split-engine mode. Best for cross-machine memory without standing up a local DB.
After init, the skill offers to register gbrain as an MCP server for Claude Code (`claude mcp add gbrain -- gbrain serve`) so `gbrain search`, `gbrain put`, etc. show up as first-class typed tools — not bash shell-outs.
**Keeping the brain current.** Run `/sync-gbrain` from any repo to re-index its code into gbrain (incremental by default, `--full` for a full reindex, `--dry-run` to preview). The skill registers the cwd as a federated source via `gbrain sources add`, runs `gbrain sync --strategy code`, and writes a `## GBrain Search Guidance` block to your project's CLAUDE.md so the agent prefers `gbrain search`/`code-def`/`code-refs` over Grep. The block is removed automatically if the capability check fails — no stale guidance pointing at tools that aren't installed.
**Per-remote trust policy.** Each repo on your machine gets one of three tiers:
- `read-write` — agent can search the brain AND write new pages back from this repo
- `read-only` — agent can search but never writes (best for multi-client consultants: search the shared brain, don't contaminate it with Client A's work while in Client B's repo)
- `deny` — no gbrain interaction at all
The skill asks once per repo. The decision is sticky across worktrees and branches of the same remote.
**GStack memory sync (different feature, same private-repo infra).** Optionally pushes your gstack state (learnings, CEO plans, design docs, retros, developer profile) to a private git repo so your memory follows you across machines, with a one-time privacy prompt (everything allowlisted / artifacts only / off) and a defense-in-depth secret scanner that blocks AWS keys, tokens, PEM blocks, and JWTs before they leave your machine.
```bash
gstack-artifacts-init
```
**Running gstack in Conductor?** Conductor explicitly strips `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` and `OPENAI_API_KEY` from every workspace's process env, so paid evals and gbrain embeddings won't work out of the box. Set `GSTACK_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` and `GSTACK_OPENAI_API_KEY` in Conductor's workspace env config instead — gstack's TS entry points promote them to canonical names at runtime. Full details and the contributor checklist for adding the import to new entry points: [Conductor + GSTACK_* env vars](../USING_GBRAIN_WITH_GSTACK.md#conductor--gstack_-env-vars).
