Brain Template

Use Brain actions rather than raw SQL.

1. Call get-brain-settings before answering, searching broadly, or distilling when current settings are not already in context. Apply the returned guidance for assistant name, company name, tone, source policy, citation requirements, publish tier, redaction, and distillation instructions.
2. Import raw material with import-capture (generic) or import-transcript (meeting-shaped: participants, sourceUrl, tags). Both default enqueueDistillation: true and auto-create a manual source when sourceId is omitted — don't call create-source first just to import one ad hoc capture.
3. Call enqueue-distillation when a capture needs distillation. Re-running it for a capture that's already queued/processing refreshes the handoff instructions instead of creating a duplicate queue row.
4. Before writing knowledge, call get-capture and copy short exact quotes. get-capture redacts title/content/metadata by default; pass includeRawContent: true (requires editor access on the source) to get the real text needed for an exact-substring quote.
5. Call write-knowledge with evidence entries whose quote fields are exact capture substrings — validateEvidence throws otherwise.
6. If write-knowledge returns mode: "proposal", leave it in review unless the user asks to approve. See AGENTS.md for the exact tier/confidence conditions that trigger a proposal.
