memory-doctor from atman-33/workhub is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Check whether long-term memory is actually working on this machine - setup, engine copy, model cache, vault, database, and whether capture is still recording. Use when memory looks stale or empty, when sessions stop being remembered, before reporting a memory bug, or when the user asks to check/diagnose memory.
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
# memory-doctor — Is memory actually working?
`memory-recall` answers "what do I remember". This answers "am I still
remembering at all".
It exists because the engine is deliberately silent: every hook swallows its
own errors so a session is never broken by a memory problem. That is the right
trade for a hook and the wrong one for the owner — capture failed on 180 of 193
sessions for six weeks before anyone looked (T-0366). Nothing surfaces unless
something goes looking.
## Steps
1. **Run the check.**
```bash
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/engine/cli.mjs" doctor
```
Every line is `ok` / `WARN` / `FAIL`, and each problem carries the action
that fixes it. The command exits 1 only on `FAIL`, so a warning does not
fail a script that runs it.
2. **Report what it found, in the user's language.** Lead with the verdict —
working, working with a caveat, or not working — then the lines that are
not `ok`. Do not paste the whole report when everything passes; say it
passed and give the memory and session counts.
3. **Act on the common ones**, rather than only relaying them:
| Line | What it means | What to do |
|---|---|---|
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add atman-33/workhub/memory-doctor@sha256:e4aecda71321ce1cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260917.0f594d4, 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.
