Quickstart
Install the plugin, run setup, and follow the prompts.
You bring Claude Code; braynee gets the rest in place. See Getting Started for the detailed walkthrough or The tools braynee orchestrates for what's under the hood.
Prerequisite
Claude Code. Everything else is required
too, but /braynee:setup detects it, asks before installing, and sets it up.
1. Add the marketplace and install the plugin
From inside Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add hamchowderr/braynee
/plugin install braynee@braynee2. Run setup and follow the prompts
/braynee:setupThe wizard detects what's missing, shows you the install commands, and asks before running them — say Yes to let it install the toolchain (git, Node, Python, beads). It then scaffolds the PARA vault, installs the six Obsidian plugins, and initializes Git, beads, and the QMD index.
3. Restart
Restart Claude Code (or run /reload-plugins) so the hooks register.
You're done — it's ambient now
You don't invoke braynee. The hooks fire automatically on every session start, prompt, tool call, and session end. Just keep working in Claude Code — the second brain runs in the background.

braynee is a simple Claude Code plugin — an ambient hook engine plus an Obsidian-backed second brain. Skills, hooks, agents, and the session → recall → beads workflow.
Getting Started
Install Claude Code and the braynee plugin, then let /braynee:setup detect, install, and scaffold the rest.
