Remember This Skill

Purpose

Automatically capture important context from our conversations and save it to Claude OS knowledge bases so I can reference it in future sessions. Perfect for:

• Design decisions and rationale
• Troubleshooting solutions discovered
• Architectural patterns you've explained
• Edge cases encountered
• Integration patterns
• Best practices you've shared
• Complex system behavior

How to Use

Simply say one of:

• "Remember this: [information]"
• "Save this: [information]"
• "Document this: [information]"
• "Remember: [explanation]"

What Happens

When you invoke this skill:

1. I extract the key information from your statement
2. I create a formatted markdown document with proper structure
3. I upload it to Claude OS (default: {project}-project_memories KB)
4. I confirm what was saved and where
5. I reference it in future conversations automatically

Examples

Example 1: Remember a Pattern

User: "Remember this: When creating a new service, always follow this structure:
initialize with domain objects and params, have a single perform method that returns
model on success or error string on failure, use private methods for complex logic."

→ Saves to: "Service Pattern Guide.md" in project KB
→ I reference it: "Like the pattern you documented, services should..."

Example 2: Save a Solution

User: "Save this: Fixed the N+1 query problem in AppointmentsScheduler by adding
.includes(:block_settings, :children) to prevent multiple DB queries."

→ Saves to: "Query Optimization Solutions.md"
→ I use it: "We can apply the same .includes strategy here..."

Example 3: Document an Architecture Decision

User: "Remember: Block model uses acts_as_tree for hierarchical structure because
we need semantic role-based organization of child blocks, not just a flat list."

→ Saves to: "Blocks System Decisions.md"
→ I reference it: "Following the hierarchical pattern you documented..."

Customization

You can specify:

• KB Name: "Remember this [content] - save to my-project-memories"
• Document Title: "Remember this [content] - as 'My Custom Title'"
• Tags/Category: "Remember this [content] - category: Integration"

Benefits

✅ Build institutional knowledge over time ✅ I remember context across sessions ✅ Reduces repetition of explanations ✅ Creates searchable archive of decisions ✅ Helps with onboarding (your knowledge is documented) ✅ Perfect for discoveries made during debugging
