cortex-remember SKILL.md skillA
cortex-remember from cdeust/cortex is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add cdeust/cortex/cortex-remember@git:20260327.890ae58Pins git:20260327.890ae58 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Store important decisions, patterns, errors, lessons, and context into Cortex persistent memory. Use when the user says 'remember this', 'save this', 'store this for later', 'note this down', 'don't forget', 'this is important', 'bookmark this', or when a significant decision, bug fix, architecture choice, or lesson learned occurs during a session. Also use after resolving tricky bugs, making technology choices, or discovering important patterns.
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 — Store to Persistent Memory ## Keywords remember, save, store, note, bookmark, don't forget, important, keep this, record, persist, write down, save for later, remember this decision, store this pattern, note this lesson, save this fix ## Overview Store important information into Cortex's thermodynamic memory system. Memories pass through a predictive coding gate that automatically filters noise — only genuinely novel or important content gets stored. The system handles deduplication, entity extraction, and knowledge graph linking automatically. **Use this skill when:** A significant event happens during a session — a decision is made, a bug is fixed, a pattern is discovered, or the user explicitly asks to remember something. ## Workflow ### Step 1: Identify What to Remember Determine the content worth storing. Good candidates: - **Decisions**: "We chose PostgreSQL over SQLite because..." - **Bug fixes**: "The root cause was X, fixed by Y" - **Patterns**: "This codebase uses factory injection for all handlers" - **Lessons**: "Never use asyncio.get_event_loop() in Python 3.10+" - **Context**: "The user prefers minimal PRs with focused changes" …

How to install
mdr add cdeust/cortex/cortex-remember@sha256:c5042997b4635f94The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260327.890ae58, 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.
