What Friction Protocol does

Friction protocol — convention

Cross-cutting rule shared by skills the claw-test harness exercises (setup, brain-ops, query, ingest, smoke-test, migrations). Reference via `> **Convention:** see [skills/_friction-protocol.md](_friction-protocol.md).`

When you encounter friction running gbrain — anything confusing, missing, surprising, or wrong — log it via `gbrain friction log` so maintainers can see it without you writing a bug report. Friction reports drive the claw-test feedback loo
