// Extract insights from external documents (research papers, books, articles). Spawns document-insight-extractor subagent. Requires session name.
Run a full coherence sweep across the Brain Dependency Graph - computes staleness, lifecycle transitions, structural health, and generates a report
Compute lifecycle scores for all insight and framework notes - detect which notes are crystallizing or becoming generative
Autonomous research pipeline - discover, extract, and integrate cutting-edge insights into knowledge base
Detect productive contradictions between notes - high semantic similarity with opposing conclusions that represent synthesis opportunities
Autonomous perception layer - scans KB for new notes matching domain watch configs, checks gap resonance with the Thinking Registry, probes external signals via web search, and auto-activates HIGH/MEDIUM signals into the Thinking Registry for the incubation loop.
Extract the transcript from a YouTube video by URL or video ID. Use when the user shares a YouTube link and wants the transcript, captions, or text content of the video. Falls back automatically if the requested language isn't available.

Extract insights from EXTERNAL documents with proper epistemic classification.
User-invocable wrapper that spawns the document-insight-extractor subagent to:
Brain/Document Insights/[session]/NOT for personal content - use /extract-insights for your conversations, transcripts.
/extract-document-insights "2025-02-21 Ancient Wisdom Research" /path/to/document.md
/extract-document-insights "AI Agent Papers" "the transcript above"
Session name is REQUIRED - describes the research session for organization.
Parse arguments to extract session name and source
Spawn document-insight-extractor subagent via Task tool with:
Task(
subagent_type="document-insight-extractor",
prompt="Extract insights from: [source] into session '[session-name]'. Follow your mandatory workflow - contextualize, classify epistemically, search duplicates, create notes, update changelog."
)
Report results - number of insights extracted, session folder path
Suggest insight interview - Present to user:
"[N] insights from [source] saved to
Brain/Document Insights/[session]/.Before these get indexed, consider running
/insight-interview [topic]to capture your own angles - where you agree, disagree, or see connections the research missed. Your responses save toBrain/AI Extracted Notes/and both sets will be available for the next connection discovery run.Run
/insight-interview [topic]to continue, or skip if you want to index these as-is."
