## Introduction
GBrain is an opinionated configuration framework for AI coding agents. It packages curated tools, prompts, and workflow configurations into a ready-to-use setup for OpenClaw, Hermes Agent, and other compatible agent runtimes.

## What GBrain Does
- Provides a curated set of agent tools covering common development workflows
- Configures agent roles like CEO, Designer, Engineer, and QA perspectives
- Sets up structured workflow pipelines for code review, design, and deployment
- Includes pre-tuned system prompts optimized for developer productivity
- Offers a one-command setup that configures the entire agent environment

## Architecture Overview
GBrain is a configuration layer, not a runtime. It generates and manages configuration files, system prompts, and tool definitions that agent runtimes consume. The framework uses a modular structure where each tool or role is defined independently and composed into workflow pipelines through a central config.

## Self-Hosting & Configuration
- Clone the repository and run the init command to scaffold configurations
- Select which agent runtime to target (OpenClaw, Hermes Agent, etc.)
- Customize role definitions and workflow pipelines in the config directory
- Add or remove tools from the curated set based on your needs
- Export configurations for team sharing and version control

## Key Features
- Opinionated defaults that work out of the box for common dev workflows
- Multi-role agent perspectives (engineering, design, QA, management)
- Modular tool system with easy add/remove customization
- Workflow pipelines for structured multi-step processes
- Compatible with multiple agent runtimes

## Comparison with Similar Tools
- **GStack** — broader toolkit from the same author; GBrain focuses on agent brain config
- **Oh-My-OpenAgent** — orchestration layer; GBrain is configuration, not orchestration
- **CLAUDE.md** — single-file project config; GBrain is a multi-file framework with roles
- **Archon** — harness builder; GBrain provides pre-built configurations rather than building tools

## FAQ
**Q: Do I need a specific agent runtime?**
A: GBrain supports OpenClaw and Hermes Agent. Check the docs for the latest compatibility list.

**Q: Can I modify the included tools?**
A: Yes. Each tool is defined in its own config file and can be customized or replaced.

**Q: Is this useful for solo developers?**
A: Yes. The multi-role approach helps solo developers consider different perspectives (design, QA) during development.

**Q: How do I share configs with my team?**
A: The config directory is designed to be committed to your project repository for team-wide consistency.
