Pull ONE item back out of .attic/ by slug or search words and summarise it. Use when the question names a TOPIC: "what did we find about X", "recall X", "what's in the attic about X", or when the user references an attic:<slug> handle. A question with no topic that just asks what the attic contains goes to attic-index instead.
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
# Recall from the attic
First, in the same shell command as anything below, locate the script:
```bash
ATTIC_JS=$(ls -d "${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}"/plugins/cache/attic/attic/*/skills/attic/scripts/attic.js "${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}"/skills/attic/scripts/attic.js "$HOME"/.agents/skills/attic/scripts/attic.js .agents/skills/attic/scripts/attic.js 2>/dev/null | sort -V | tail -1)
```
Query: `$ARGUMENTS`.
```bash
node "$ATTIC_JS" recall "$ARGUMENTS"
```
The script scores slug, index hook and item body, returns the best match, and
lists alternatives.
1. No `.attic/` yet, or nothing matches: say so in one line and stop. Do not
invent an answer or go read source files unless the user asks.
2. Several plausible matches: report the best one, then list the alternative
handles in one line so the user can redirect.
3. Report the item in at most ten lines. Keep code, paths and commands
verbatim. End with the handle.
Never rewrite or delete items while recalling.
## Freshness
Recall prints a trust line above the body, and for anything that is not
current, a warning with the reason. Pass it on — an item's staleness is part

How to install
mdr add nishikantaray/attic/attic-recall@sha256:e5a00cd949a05430The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.6.1, 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.
