What Init does

Initialize OKF knowledge base files in the current project. Use when the user wants to start documenting their project for claude-mega-brain, or when the user says "init mega brain", "setup the knowledge base", "cria o okf", "inicializa o mega brain", "quero usar o mega brain", "criar a estrutura do knowledge base", or asks how to get started with the plugin.

How to install Init

git clone https://github.com/guhcostan/claude-mega-brain
cp -r claude-mega-brain/skills/init ~/.claude/skills/init

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Init skill free?
Yes. The skill itself is free from guhcostan/claude-mega-brain. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.
Does Init work with Claude Code?
It is in our test queue — we run every skill on real work before issuing a verdict, and this one is scheduled.
How do I install Init?
Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.
Can I use Init with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
