Where is the captured information stored?

Insights are saved to specific markdown convention files within your local 'brain-os' directory, organized by topics like Rust, Unix, or project-specific categories.

What are the footnote citations used for?

Citations include a session UUID and line number, allowing you to trace any documented insight back to the exact conversation where it originated.

Does this skill require specific tools to submit changes?

Yes, it uses Graphite (gt) to create branches and submit pull requests for the captured knowledge, ensuring a clean version-controlled workflow.

How does the capture skill identify insights?
