Curate the Basic Memory graph: link orphan notes, propose typed relations, merge duplicates, audit tags and folders, build hub notes. Use to organize and connect a knowledge base as notes accumulate.
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 Curate Maintain a healthy, well-connected knowledge graph. As notes accumulate, it pays to periodically organize, link, and curate the knowledge base so isolated notes become a connected graph. This skill curates the **knowledge graph** — the notes, relations, and tags that make up the knowledge base. (For the notes' content — splitting bloated notes, consolidating scattered facts, retiring stale entries — see **memory-defrag**.) ## Project scope If the project is unknown, discover it with `bm_project(command="list")`. Pass a nonempty `project` on every note, folder, context and schema call, even with one project or a qualified `memory://` URL. Use the chosen project's name, `workspace/project`, or external ID; `<project>` below is a placeholder for it. Recent activity also requires `project`. Search accepts `project` for one project, `projects` for selected projects, or `all_projects=True` explicitly. Discovery and bundled manuals need no project. Keep the same scope when following returned paths, paginating, or recovering from a refusal. ## When to Use - Asked to organize, clean up, or improve the knowledge base …

How to install
mdr add basicmachines-co/basic-memory/memory-curate@sha256:9983b502ab0dccbeThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261029.bde8034, 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.
