remember
Save something important to auto-memory with a timestamp and context. Use whenever the user says remember this, note it for next time or don't forget, wants you to stop repeating a mistake across sessions, or a discovery is too important for auto-capture.
Why this skill is useful
Adds a structured method for saving critical project knowledge that the AI wouldn't generate on its own.

What this skill does
/si:remember — Save Knowledge Explicitly Writes an explicit entry to auto-memory when something is important enough that you don't want to rely on Claude noticing it automatically. Usage When to Use Situation Example ----------- --------- Hard-won debugging insight "CORS errors on /api/upload are caused by the CDN, not the backend" Project convention not in CLAUDE.md "We use barrel exports in src/components/" Tool-specific gotcha "Jest needs --forceExit flag or it hangs on DB tests" Architecture decision "We chose Drizzle over Prisma for type-safe SQL" Preference you want Claude to learn "Don't add comments explaining obvious code" Workflow Step 1: Parse the knowledge Extract from the user's input: What: The concrete fact or pattern Why it matters: Context (if provided) Scope: Project-specific or global? Step 2: Check for duplicates If a similar entry exists: Show it to the user Ask: "Update the existing entry or add a new one?" Step 3: Write to MEMORY.md Append to the end of MEMORY.md: Keep entries concise — one line when possible. Auto-memory entries don't need timestamps, IDs, or metadata. They're notes, not database records. If MEMORY.md is over 180 lines, warn the user: Step 4: Suggest promotion If the knowledge sounds like a rule (imperative, always/never, convention): Step 5: Confirm What NOT to use /si:remember for Temporary context: Use session memory or just tell Claude in conversation Enforced rules: Use /si:promote to write directly to CLAUDE.md Cross-project knowledge: Use ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md for global rules Sensitive data: Never store credentials, tokens, or secrets in memory files Tips Be concise — one line beats a paragraph Include the concrete command or value, not just the concept ✅ "Build with pnpm build, tests with pnpm test:e2e" ❌ "The project uses pnpm for building and testing" If you're remembering the same thing twice, promote it to CLAUDE.md
