Audit the `bd remember` store and recommend which entries to prune, so each one earns its per-session `bd prime` injection cost. Read-only: it proposes a triage table plus the exact `bd forget` / migration commands; you run them. Use when `bd remember` entries have accumulated, feel stale, redundant, or conflicting, or when session-startup token cost from injected memories is high. Trigger phrases: 'harden memories', 'audit bd remember', 'prune bd remember', 'bd remember bloat', 'bd remember…
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
# Harden Memories Audit the project's `bd remember` entries and recommend which to prune down to the few that genuinely earn their cost. `bd prime` injects **every** `bd remember` entry in full at session start (they are persisted in the beads Dolt database), so entries accumulate as a silent, scaling token tax — conventions drift, skills ship, and facts graduate to CLAUDE.md / the auto-memory `MEMORY.md` / Basic Memory, but nothing automates the cleanup until a manual pass. Periodic audits (≈ every 4 sprints) reliably recover \~40% of that token budget. **This skill is READ-ONLY by design.** It audits and *proposes* — it never edits a durable file, never writes to Basic Memory, and never runs `bd forget` itself. For each entry it presents a recommendation plus the exact command(s) for **you** to review and run. This deliberately keeps the irreversible step (`bd forget`, which destroys the only copy of a fact) and the migration write under your control — no automated "verify-then-delete" can be trusted to gate an irreversible delete (a Basic Memory write can fail `schema_validate` asynchronously; an `Edit` can land in the wrong file; an append can hit the …

How to install
mdr add voxpelli/claude-beads/harden-memories@sha256:6b0137ae771c8dedThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260603.e8734c3, 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.
