memory-first skillA
memory-first is agent-read markdown (skill) from yeisonrestrepo/code-conductor: Lookup chain enforced before any file read or search: project memory, code graph, grep/glob, Explore sub-agent, targeted read — stop at the first step that answers.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Memory-First Protocol Follow this lookup chain in strict order before reading any file, running any search, or spawning any tool. Stop at the first step that answers the question. ## Chain ### 1. Project Memory Check `.claude/memory/project.md`. Use the Grep tool to check project.md first: ``` Grep pattern="<keyword>" path=".claude/memory/project.md" ``` If Grep returns matches, use that information and stop. If no matches, proceed to step 2. ### 2. Graphify Graph For structural or relational questions, query the code graph. **Use when asking:** - "What calls function X?" - "What does module Y depend on?" - "Where is interface Z implemented?" - "What is the path between component A and B?" ```bash graphify query "<your question>" ``` Skip this step if `graphify` is not installed or the command returns no results. Proceed to step 3. **Do not use for:** literal string patterns, variable names, import statements. ### 3. Grep / Glob For pattern searches, use the `Grep` or `Glob` tools inline. Never read a full file to find a pattern. ### 4. Targeted Read Last resort. Only when steps 1–3 cannot answer. - Always specify `offset` and `limit`. - Max 150 lines per call. …

How to install
mdr add yeisonrestrepo/code-conductor/memory-first@git:20260922.8fd811cmdr add yeisonrestrepo/code-conductor/memory-first@sha256:aab5cfe38163b036Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
