memory-defragbasicmachines-coDefragment and reorganize agent memory files: split bloated files, merge duplicates, remove stale information, and restructure the memory hierarchy. Use when memory files have grown unwieldy, contain redundancies, or need reorganization. Run periodically (weekly) or on demand.memory-ingestbasicmachines-coProcess unstructured external input (meeting transcripts, conversation logs, pasted documents) into structured Basic Memory entities. Extracts entities, searches for existing matches, proposes new entities with approval, creates notes with observations and relations, and captures action items.memory-lifecyclebasicmachines-coManage entity status transitions in Basic Memory: archive completed work, move notes between status folders, update frontmatter, and handle edge cases. Use when marking items complete, archiving old entities, or managing any folder-based status workflow.memory-literary-analysisbasicmachines-coAnalyze a complete literary work into a structured Basic Memory knowledge graph. Covers schema design, entity seeding, chapter-by-chapter processing, cross-referencing, validation, and visualization.memory-metadata-searchbasicmachines-coStructured metadata search for Basic Memory: query notes by custom frontmatter fields using equality, range, array, and nested filters. Use when finding notes by status, priority, confidence, or any custom YAML field rather than free-text content.memory-notesbasicmachines-coHow to write well-structured Basic Memory notes: frontmatter, observations with semantic categories, relations with wiki-links, and best practices for building a rich knowledge graph. Use when creating or improving notes.memory-reflectbasicmachines-coSleep-time memory reflection: review recent conversations and daily notes, extract insights, and consolidate into long-term memory. Use when triggered by cron, heartbeat, or explicit request to reflect on recent activity. Runs as background processing to improve memory quality over time.memory-researchbasicmachines-coResearch an external subject using web search, synthesize findings into a structured Basic Memory entity. Use when asked to research a company, person, technology, or topic — or when a bare name or URL is provided that implies a research request.memory-schemabasicmachines-coSchema lifecycle management for Basic Memory: discover unschemaed notes, infer schemas, create and edit schema definitions, validate notes, and detect drift. Use when working with structured note types (Task, Person, Meeting, etc.) to maintain consistency across the knowledge graph.memory-tasksbasicmachines-coTask management via Basic Memory schemas: create, track, and resume structured tasks that survive context compaction. Uses BM's schema system for uniform notes queryable through the knowledge graph.memory-capturebasicmachines-coCapture the current state of a working thread or conversation into a single coherent Basic Memory note — synthesize where it landed, don't append a log. On re-capture, rewrite the same note in place instead of duplicating. Use mid-thread or end-of-thread when decisions, insights, or context are worth preserving.memory-ci-capturebasicmachines-coSynthesize GitHub delivery context into a concise Basic Memory project update. Use in CI after `bm ci collect` prepares a ProjectUpdateContext; return only structured AgentSynthesis JSON for `bm ci publish`.memory-continuebasicmachines-coResume prior work by rebuilding context from the Basic Memory knowledge graph — pick up where you left off using memory:// URLs, recent activity, and search. Use when starting a session or when the user says 'continue with...', 'back to...', or 'where were we?'memory-curatebasicmachines-coCurate the Basic Memory knowledge graph: find orphan notes and suggest links, propose typed relations, merge duplicates, audit tags and folders, and build hub notes. Use to organize, connect, and improve a knowledge base as notes accumulate.memory-defragbasicmachines-coDefragment and reorganize agent memory files: split bloated files, merge duplicates, remove stale information, and restructure the memory hierarchy.

Use when finding notes by status, priority, confidence, or any custom YAML field rather than free-text content.memory-notesbasicmachines-coHow to write well-structured Basic Memory notes: frontmatter, observations with semantic categories, relations with wiki-links, and best practices for building a rich knowledge graph. Use when creating or improving notes.memory-onboardingbasicmachines-coGuide someone new to Basic Memory through designing and building a complete personal knowledge system — interview them about what they want to track, propose a structure, build it with schemas and instruction notes, teach them to use it, and set up their AI assistant to load it automatically. Use this skill whenever a user says they're new to Basic Memory, wants to 'get started', 'set up', or 'onboard' with Basic Memory, doesn't know what to use it for, asks how to organize their memory project memory-reflectbasicmachines-coSleep-time memory reflection: review recent conversations and daily notes, extract insights, and consolidate into long-term memory.
