recall
Skill1 starsChanged 2 months agoMITView on GitHub
Query the recall knowledge base for relevant context. Searches decisions, patterns, gotchas, links, and insights stored across sessions. TRIGGER when: user asks to "recall", "remember", "what did we decide about", "check knowledge base", or references past decisions/patterns. DO NOT TRIGGER when: user is talking about memory/recall in a general sense, or working on the recall agent code itself.
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. 0 are common, 5 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 119 edited versions we read keep these.
5
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 53
Before making architectural decisions, search for prior decisions on the topic
- Distinctive: line 54
After resolving a tricky bug, store the gotcha for future reference
- Distinctive: line 55
When encountering a useful pattern, capture it with project and tags
- Distinctive: line 56
When finding a valuable resource, save it as a link entry
- Distinctive: line 62
Search and filtering patterns for finding relevant past context by project, type, or full-text query
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 119 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Recall
Query and store knowledge entries (decisions, patterns, gotchas, links, insights) in a local SQLite database with full-text search.
CLI Usage
# Add entries
recall add "Always quote FTS5 tokens containing hyphens" --type gotcha --project recall --tags sqlite,fts5
recall add "Use WAL mode for concurrent reads" --type pattern --project myproj
# Search (full-text, with optional filters)
recall search "sqlite"
recall search "architecture" --project myproj --type decision
# List, get, delete, stats
recall list --project recall --limit 10
recall get 1
recall delete 1
recall stale --days 90

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

Other files people use alongside this one.
Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.
ianclearySkillpoteto-help
Guides users through pstack setup, /poteto-mode, and picking the skill, playbook, or principle for a task. Type /poteto-help with a question.

Xia-AtaraxiaSkillmake-bot-ui
Builds a small web page whose buttons wake an agent over a webhook: a local server keeps the sender key server-side and POSTs JSON to a webhook-triggered routine, and the page is exposed on the existing Tailscale node. Use for \"make a bot UI\", \"a dashboard with buttons that trigger the agent\", \"wake the bot from a page\", handing a webhook sender key to the server without pasting it in chat, or putting that UI on the tailnet. Not for general frontend work - use principle-frontend; not for tailnet health or reachability - use tailscale.

bnemaSkillsetup-pstack
Configure which Pi models pstack uses per role. Detects available provider/model specs and writes pstack's user configuration. Use for /setup-pstack, "configure pstack models", or changing pstack model choices.

Xia-AtaraxiaSkillbenchmark-checklist
Vets performance measurements for the limiter, tuning, physical limits, errors, repeatability, relevance, and proof that timed work happened. It applies to 'check this benchmark', 'report this speedup', measured regressions, and choosing a library or configuration from numbers. It reports spread and gaps before drawing a conclusion. Not for general testing policy or choosing test oracles - use principle-testing.

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
