Agent skill · thedotmack
mem-search
Use this when the user asks to search memory, "did we already solve this?", "how did we do X last time?", or wants work from previous sessions.
What it needs
About 1k tokens when loaded.
What this skill does
mem-search Layered workflow. Do not dump full observations until IDs are filtered, and do not reach for raw tool bodies until the summaries came up short. 1. search(query) — index with IDs 2. timeline(anchor=ID) — nearby context 3. getobservations(ids=[...]) — full details for those IDs only 4. gettooluses(ids=[...]) — the ORIGINAL toolinput / toolresponse for specific tool calls. Last resort: these are unsummarized and can run to thousands of tokens each. Stamp platformSource as cursor or grok-bot on writes for this host. When reading, do not drop the other host unless asked. If MCP is missing, run the install skill first (npx claude-mem install --ide <host>).
How to use it
Reference it in AdaL, Claude Code, Cursor or any coding agent — nothing to install:
