Keep a long conversation coherent within a finite window through rolling summaries, pinned facts, and selective recall. Use when sessions run long enough that early context falls out.
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
# Conversation memory Every long conversation eventually exceeds the window, and the naive answer of dropping the oldest turns loses exactly what was established first: names, decisions, and constraints. Memory is choosing what survives. ## Method 1. **Separate durable facts from conversational flow.** Decisions, preferences, and constraints are pinned; small talk and superseded attempts are not. 2. **Summarise rolling history rather than truncating.** A running summary of older turns preserves the thread at a fraction of the tokens, and truncation loses it entirely. 3. **Keep the recent turns verbatim.** Recency matters for coherence, so the last several exchanges stay unsummarised while older ones compress. 4. **Re-summarise incrementally.** Summarising the summary each round compounds distortion, so summarise from the source turns where possible. 5. **Extract facts explicitly as they are established.** A structured note when the user states a constraint is more reliable than hoping a summary preserves it (see long-term-user-memory). 6. **Handle contradiction by recency with acknowledgement.** When the …

How to install
mdr add amey-thakur/ai-skills/conversation-memory@sha256:ab517e1407b0b9f8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260728.fe84bd4, 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.
