memory-ingestProcess unstructured external input (meeting transcripts, conversation logs, pasted documents) into structured Basic Memory entities.
Memory Ingest is an agent skill from basicmachines-co/basic-memory. Process 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.
Its SKILL.md is about 2.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: AI conversations that actually remember. Never re-explain your project to your AI again. Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/tyvKNccgqN. The licence is AGPL-3.0.
8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6982cfc. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are python).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Memory Ingest loads about 2.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 77 tokens; SKILL.md has 816 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

.claude/skills/memory-ingest/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).Turn raw, unstructured input into structured Basic Memory entities. Meeting transcripts, conversation logs, pasted documents, email threads — anything with information worth preserving gets parsed, cross-referenced against existing knowledge, and written as proper notes.
1. Parse raw input → identify structure, extract key info
2. Extract entities → people, orgs, topics, action items
3. Search existing entities → multi-variation queries
4. Research new entities → optional web research (see memory-research)
5. Present entity proposal → get approval before creating
6. Create source note → verbatim content + observations + relations
7. Create approved entities → structured notes for each new entity
8. Extract action items → follow-ups and commitmentsRead the pasted content and identify its structure:
Don't rewrite or summarize the source content. Preserve it verbatim in the note — you'll add structured observations alongside it.
Scan the content for entities worth tracking in the knowledge graph:
| Entity Type | Signals |
|---|---|
| Person | Names with roles, titles, or affiliations mentioned |
| Organization | Company names, agencies, institutions |
| Topic/Concept | Technical domains, methodologies, standards discussed substantively |
| Action Item | Commitments, deadlines, "I'll do X by Y" statements |
Infer type from context. If someone is introduced as "CTO of Acme Corp", that's both a Person and an Organization entity. If a technology is discussed in depth, it might warrant a Concept entity.
Exclude noise. Not every name mentioned is worth an entity. Filter for:
For each extracted entity, search Basic Memory with multiple query variations:
# Person — try full name, last name
search_notes(query="Sarah Chen")
search_notes(query="Chen")
# Organization — try full name, abbreviation, acronym
search_notes(query="National Renewable Energy Laboratory")
search_notes(query="NREL")
# Topic — try the full term and keywords
search_notes(query="edge computing")
search_notes(query="edge inference")Classify each entity as:
[[wiki-link]].For proposed entities where more context would be valuable, do a brief web search (2-3 queries max per entity):
Use hedging language ("appears to be", "estimated", "based on public information"). Never fabricate details.
This step is optional — skip it if the source material provides enough context, or if the user is in a hurry. See the memory-research skill for deeper research workflows.
Before creating anything, present what you found and what you'd like to create:
Entities found in Basic Memory:
- [[Sarah Chen]] (Person — existing)
- [[Acme Corp]] (Organization — existing)
Proposed new entities:
- Jordan Rivera (Person — VP Engineering at NovaTech, mentioned as project lead)
- NovaTech (Organization — SaaS platform, Series B, discussed as integration partner)
- Federated Learning (Concept — core technical topic of the discussion)
Approve all / select individually / skip entity creation?Include enough context with each proposed entity for the user to make a quick decision.
Create the primary note for the ingested content. This is the "record of what happened" — it preserves the raw material and adds structured metadata.

)Adapt templates to your domain. The key elements are: type and tags as parameters, an overview section, observations with categories, and relations linking back to the source.
Review the source content for commitments and follow-ups:
Action Items:
- Send NovaTech technical spec document by Friday (your commitment)
- Jordan will share their API documentation by next week (their commitment)
Follow-Up Reminders:
- 1 week: Check if Jordan sent API docs
- 2 weeks: Schedule follow-up call to discuss POC scopeIf using the memory-tasks skill, create Task notes for your action items. Otherwise, capture them as observations in the source note.

Run `npx skills add basicmachines-co/basic-memory --skill memory-ingest -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/memory-ingest in basicmachines-co/basic-memory) into .claude/skills/memory-ingest in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add basicmachines-co/basic-memory --skill memory-ingest -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/memory-ingest in basicmachines-co/basic-memory) into .agents/skills/memory-ingest in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add basicmachines-co/basic-memory --skill memory-ingest -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/memory-ingest, .gemini/skills/memory-ingest, .github/skills/memory-ingest and .opencode/skills/memory-ingest in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Memory Ingest is instructions for the agent only. Our summary lists: Python 3.
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.
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. Review the folder before installing.
Memory Ingest is published under the AGPL-3.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2.9k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 12k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Memory Ingest: Meeting Ingestion (garrytan/gbrain, 31k stars), Meetings (alirezarezvani/claude-skills, 28k stars), Meeting Distiller Pro (sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, 47k stars) and Ingest (coreyhaines31/makerskills, 844 stars).
