AI summary
Auto-generated overview of what this skill does and when to reach for it.
AI agents remember everything you’ve discussed by storing notes in plain Markdown files you can edit yourself.
Use this when
- You keep re-explaining the same project details to your AI
- Your AI forgets context between sessions and you’re tired of it
- You want a single knowledge base that both you and your AI can read/write
- You need to search past conversations by meaning, not just keywords
- You work across multiple devices and want consistent AI context everywhere
Don't use when
- You only use one-off chats and never revisit past work
- You need a private, air-gapped system with no internet access
- You prefer a GUI-only tool without any command-line interaction
Capabilities
- Stores notes as plain Markdown files on disk or cloud
- Two-way sync between human edits and AI reads/writes
- Semantic search to find notes by meaning, not keywords
- MCP-native integration with Claude, Codex, Cursor, ChatGPT, VS Code
- Tool discovery with behavior tags (read-only, destructive, idempotent)
- Cross-device sync with snapshots and conflict resolution
