Processes voice transcripts and brain dumps in three phases, extracting every idea thread, evaluating the strongest and saving a permanent inventory and synthesis.
- Works in 7 steps: Save Raw Input → 5: Speaker Consolidation &… → Extract (Pan) → …
- Processing a voice transcript that covers several topics
- SKILL.md covers Overview, When to Use, Critical Rules (Learned from… and Process, plus 9 more sections
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
What it does
Raw, multi-topic capture such as voice transcripts, stream-of-consciousness notes and brain-dump exports becomes an evaluated list of ideas. The work has three phases: extract every thread without filtering, evaluate the highest-signal ones with deeper brainstorming, then synthesize a permanent gold-found file. Nothing is dismissed as noise on the first pass, because half-formed or personal remarks often hold the best ideas, and the raw input is saved to a file before any analysis. The description adds that results are captured to Open Brain.
Five rules come from past mistakes. Output from every phase is saved to files in the project's docs directory rather than left to agent memory. A summary file is used first, with the transcript read only for exact quotes and a completeness check. Background evaluator agents write their own evaluation files. The final synthesis is written by the main agent, not delegated. Transcripts get two extraction passes whose inventories are merged.
When your agent uses it
- Processing a voice transcript that covers several topics
- Mining a ChatGPT, Gemini or Claude brain-dump export for ideas
- Turning stream-of-consciousness notes into an evaluated idea list
- Answering what did I say in a long recording
Example prompts
- “Pan for gold in this meeting transcript and save the inventory under docs/meetings.”
- “Process this brain dump export and tell me which threads are worth pursuing.”
- “What did I say in yesterday's voice note? Extract every idea thread.”
Requirements
- A project docs directory where the inventory and evaluation files can be saved
- Open Brain, if you want results captured there
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Save Raw Input
- 5: Speaker Consolidation & Identification (Multi-Speaker Transcripts Only)
- Extract (Pan)
- Evaluate (Brainstorm per Nugget)
- Synthesis
- 5: Capture to Open Brain
- Self-Improvement
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 238df6c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are dot and markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Panning for Gold loads about 5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,214 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,214 words (~5,003 tokens).
“Transform raw brain dumps into evaluated, actionable idea inventories. Three phases: Extract every thread without filtering, Evaluate the highest-signal ones, then Synthesize into a permanent gold-found file.”
