Checking that the SKILL.md file is still in the repository.
Quickly save a small fact, reminder, or user preference into Basic Memory from Codex without turning it into a full decision or checkpoint.
Install
npx vskill@latest install basicmachines-co/basic-memory/bm-rememberSKILL.md
Remember
Use this for lightweight capture: "remember that", "save this", "note this", or a small fact that should survive the current thread.
Steps
- Read
~/.codex/basic-memory.json, then the nearest project
.codex/basic-memory.json; project keys override user keys:
primaryProject, default omittedrememberFolder, defaultcodex/remember
Apply the bm-writing skill before drafting the note. Match its depth to this lightweight capture; do not pad a small fact into an essay.
- Identify the exact text to save. If the user supplied text, preserve their
wording. If the user said "remember that" and the referent is unclear, ask one short question.
- Write with
bm_write:
title: first line trimmed to 80 characters, or a short descriptive titledirectory:rememberFoldercontent: the text to remembertags:["codex", "manual-capture"]- route to
primaryProjectif configured
- Confirm in one line with the permalink.
Do not use this for decisions with alternatives or for work handoffs. Use bm-decide or bm-checkpoint for those.
