What it does
Implements a fan-out recall pattern: when a user makes a vague or referential request ("from earlier", "remember when", "that thing with"), the skill searches multiple memory sources in parallel (daily logs, curated memory, session transcripts, vault notes, system logs, processed media, Redis state) to find the referenced context. It then synthesizes results into a concise summary for the agent or user.
When to use it
- Any time the user refers to previous conversations or assets vaguely
- Before acting on ambiguous instructions that rely on past context
- When you need to surface exact prior statements, media, or decisions to avoid guessing
What's included
- Scripts: none bundled; procedural shell examples are embedded in the skill body for searching logs and files with safe timeouts
- References: inline guidance on which sources to search and how to timeout long operations
- Instructions: keyword extraction, parallel fan-out search, synthesis rules, and explicit anti-patterns (do not guess, always timeout external calls)
Compatible agents
- Best with assistants that can access local files and session history (Claude/Copilot-like agents, custom agent runtimes with file/session access).
