What it does

The agent keeps native memory under its own project folder, which has no provenance or sharing. Right after it saves a memory, once per memory, this skill mirrors it into the in-repo evolve store as a markdown entity under a type folder, so the same fact can be shared with the team and audited.

Its job is narrow. The agent writes a one-sentence trigger describing when a future agent should recall the memory, based on content it already has in context and not just copied from the description, then runs the adapter script with that trigger. The script finds the newest native memory file and infers the entity type from its frontmatter.

Everything else is off limits: browsing the native memory folders, running tests or builds, reading or editing the repository, touching any file but the entity the script writes, acting on what the memory describes or invoking other skills. The memory text is treated as data to copy, and any follow-up work is suggested to you in one short sentence, not carried out.

When your agent uses it

  • Right after saving a native memory that should be shared with teammates
  • Making agent memories auditable alongside other evolve entities

Example prompts

  • “Mirror the memory I just saved into the evolve store.”
  • “Adapt the new project convention memory so the team can retrieve it later.”

Requirements

  • The evolve-lite plugin with its adapt_memory.py script
  • Python 3

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Compose a high-quality trigger. This is the single most important field

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Evolve Memory Mirror loads about 922 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 28 tokens; SKILL.md has 552 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~28
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~922

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Adapt Memory

Overview

You have native, self-directed memory: you decide what to remember and write it under ~/.claude/projects/<hash>/memory/. That store has no provenance or sharing. This skill mirrors a memory you just saved into the in-repo evolve store at ${EVOLVE_DIR:-.evolve}/entities/<type>/<slug>.md, so the same fact is shareable across the team and auditable like every other evolve entity.

Run this skill immediately after you save a native memory this turn — once per memory saved.

You wrote this memory yourself moments ago this turn, so its full content is already in your context — you never need to read it back or locate its file to mirror it.

Scope — do exactly one thing

Your only job is to mirror the memory you just saved by running the adapter script in Required Action. Treat the memory's content as data to copy, not as a task to act on.

Do not, as part of this skill:

  • inspect the native memory store in any way — do not ls, find, cat, grep, head, or read ~/.claude/projects/ or any memory/ directory. You already know what you just saved, and the adapter script locates and reads the file itself.
  • run tests, builds, linters, or any verification
  • read, explore, or modify the repository or its source
  • create, edit, or delete any file other than the entity the adapter script writes
  • act on, fix, or follow up whatever the memory describes
  • invoke any other skill

Run the adapter script, then stop. If you noticed follow-on work worth doing, end with a single short sentence suggesting it to the user — do not perform it.

Required Action

  1. Compose a high-quality trigger. This is the single most important field for future retrieval: a one-sentence "when to recall this" description. Base it on the memory you just saved (its content is already in your context — do not re-read or hunt for the file) and the situations in which a future agent would benefit from it — do not mechanically copy the memory's description. Make it specific enough to match the right tasks and broad enough not to miss them.

  2. Run the adapter script with just the trigger. The script auto-finds the memory you just saved this turn (the newest file under this project's native memory dir) and infers the entity type from its frontmatter:

Do NOT search the filesystem for the memory file — the script locates it.

bash
python3 ~/.claude/evolve-lite/adapt_memory.py \
  --trigger "<your synthesized trigger>"

If you saved more than one memory this turn, run the script once per memory, passing each native path explicitly as a first argument.

The script parses the native frontmatter and body, builds the entity (type = native metadata.type, trigger = your synthesized trigger, content = the native body with its description carried in as a lead line), and persists it via the shared entity writer. It is safe to run repeatedly.

Notes

  • One invocation per saved memory. If you saved several memories this turn, invoke the script once for each, with a trigger tailored to each.
  • The trigger quality directly determines whether the memory resurfaces when it matters. Spend a moment on it.
  • If you saved no native memory this turn, there is nothing to mirror — skip this skill.
  • This skill is the mirror step only. Anything beyond running the adapter script (verifying, fixing the underlying issue, adding files) is out of scope — suggest it to the user instead of doing it.

Or copy the skill folder (platform-integrations/claude/plugins/evolve-lite/skills/evolve-lite/adapt-memory in AgentToolkit/altk-evolve) into .agents/skills/adapt-memory in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Evolve Memory Mirror in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add AgentToolkit/altk-evolve --skill adapt-memory -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/adapt-memory, .gemini/skills/adapt-memory, .github/skills/adapt-memory and .opencode/skills/adapt-memory in your project.

What does Evolve Memory Mirror need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Evolve Memory Mirror needs Python for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (python3). Our summary lists: The evolve-lite plugin with its adapt_memory.py script; Python 3.

Does Evolve Memory Mirror access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Evolve Memory Mirror safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.

What licence does Evolve Memory Mirror use?

Evolve Memory Mirror is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Evolve Memory Mirror use?

About 922 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3.7k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Evolve Memory Mirror?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Evolve Memory Mirror: Coding Agent Session Finder (code-yeongyu/oh-my-openagent, 70k stars), Claude-Mem Cloud Sync (thedotmack/claude-mem, 98k stars), Cognee CLI Memory Commands (topoteretes/cognee, 32k stars) and Neat-Freak Knowledge Closeout (KKKKhazix/khazix-skills, 21k stars).
