Quickly capture a thought, fact, or reminder into Basic Memory as a lightweight note. Use when the user says "remember that…", "note this", "save this to memory", or runs /basic-memory:bm-remember. For quick deliberate capture — not full decision or session records.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Remember
Capture `$ARGUMENTS` into Basic Memory as a quick note, keeping the user's words.
When no project is pinned, discover projects with `bm_project(command="list")`
and pass the selected project's external ID as `project` on note/search calls.
With several addressable projects, these calls require an explicit scope even
when a default is configured.
## Steps
1. **Resolve config.** Read the `basicMemory` block with the same precedence the
hooks use. For the user-level base, append `settings.json` to the literal value
of `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` when that environment variable is present; do not trim
it, expand `~`, or treat an empty value as unset. Use `~/.claude/settings.json`
only when the variable is absent. Then the project's `.claude/settings.json`
and `.claude/settings.local.json` override it per key. A user-level block alone
is enough; a project can still pin its own values:
- `rememberFolder` — folder for quick captures (default: `bm-remember`)
- `primaryProject` — project to write to (when absent, discover projects and explicitly
select the listed default or sole project)
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add basicmachines-co/basic-memory/bm-remember@sha256:e59d33bf9212c136The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261024.3d433fd, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
