Remnic Remember by joshuaswarren — Agent Skill

Name: Remnic Remember
Author: joshuaswarren

File contents

When to use

Use when the user explicitly asks the agent to remember something, or when a turn produces a durable decision, preference, or finding worth storing for later sessions.

Triggers:

"Remember that …"
"Save this for later."
"Add a note that …"
End-of-turn consolidation after a non-trivial conclusion.

Inputs

content (required) — the statement to store, in the user's own words where possible.
Optional: category hint (preference, decision, fact, procedure).
Optional: related entity or project name.

Procedure

Confirm the content is durable — it should still be useful days or weeks from now.
Strip any secrets, credentials, or transient context (current PID, test run timestamps).
Rephrase only if needed for clarity. Keep the user's voice.
Call remnic_memory_store with the text as content. Include category/entity hints if the tool schema supports them.
Confirm to the user what was stored, in one line.
Mention that the memory is now available across connected agents (Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, OpenClaw).

Efficiency plan

Batch closely related facts into a single memory rather than writing many tiny ones.
If a prior memory on the same topic already exists, prefer an update-in-place phrasing over a fresh write.
Do not store anything that can be re-derived trivially from source code or docs.

Pitfalls and fixes

Pitfall: Storing transient state like "user is running tests now". Fix: Only commit facts that will still matter tomorrow.
Pitfall: Accidentally including a secret or token. Fix: Redact before calling the tool; reject any content that matches known secret patterns.
Pitfall: Duplicate memories on the same topic. Fix: Recall first; prefer update over re-store.
Pitfall: Vague entries ("user likes clean code"). Fix: Be specific — who, what, when, why.

Verification checklist

Content is durable and specific.
No secrets, credentials, or PII were included.
remnic_memory_store was called with the final content.
User received a one-line confirmation.
Legacy engram_memory_store alias was not preferred over remnic_memory_store.

Tool names: canonical name is remnic_memory_store. The legacy engram_memory_store alias remains accepted during v1.x.
