recall

SKILL.md

The user wants to recall past context about: $ARGUMENTS

Quick start

memory_smart_search { "query": "jwt refresh token rotation", "limit": 10 }

Expected output:

2 results across 2 sessions.
[importance 8] decision · "Rotate refresh tokens on every use" (session 7f3a9c21)
[importance 5] code · "limit.ts counts per-IP" (session b21d004e)

Why
Only surface what the tool returned. Never fabricate an observation, a session
id, or an importance score. If nothing comes back, say so.

Workflow

Call memory_smart_search with the user's text as query and limit: 10.
Pass project when the user scopes to a specific repo.

Group results by session.

For each observation show its type, title, and narrative.

Lead with the high-signal observations (importance >= 7).

If zero results, suggest 2-3 alternative search terms and stop. Do not guess.

Anti-patterns

WRONG: results are empty, so you write "We probably discussed token expiry last
week" from assumption.

RIGHT: "No memories matched that query. Try refresh token, session expiry,
or auth rotation."

Checklist

Every observation shown came from the tool response.

Results grouped by session, high-importance first.

Empty results trigger alternative-term suggestions, not invention.

No session id or score was paraphrased or rounded.
