$ npx skills add coco-research/coco --skill media-memory -a claude-code

Project install by default; add -g for ~/.claude/skills/.

GitHub CLI
$ gh skill install coco-research/coco media-memory --agent claude-code

Project scope by default; add --scope user for a personal install. Needs GitHub CLI 2.90.0 or later (public preview).

Manual copy
$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/coco-research/coco.git skills-src && mkdir -p .claude/skills && cp -r skills-src/skills/media-memory .claude/skills/media-memory && rm -rf skills-src

What it does

Media Memory is an agent skill from coco-research/coco. Use when the user sends or generates an image, screenshot, video, audio or file and wants it saved, or asks to find past media (that diagram, the mockup from last week). Ingests and searches with local ChromaDB embeddings.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Embeddings. It works with Chroma. The repository describes itself as: CoCo Super Intelligence is the orchestration layer that turns Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex into an engineering department: a routed advisory board, 226 skills, 386 commands…

When your agent uses it

  • Generates an image
  • File and wants it saved
  • Asks to find past media (that diagram
  • The mockup from last week)

Example prompts

  • “/media-memory”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Copy the file to assets/ via ingest.py
  2. ALWAYS provide --description with a rich natural language description of the content
  3. ALWAYS provide relevant --tags for semantic categorization
  4. Set --source accurately: user (user sent it), generated (Claude/AI created it), url (downloaded), ingested (bulk import)
  5. For screenshots: describe what's visible (UI elements, text, code, diagrams)
  6. For documents: extract key text into --text
  7. Report the result to the user: "Saved to media memory: {description}"

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2ddb559. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    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.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • uv

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use uv, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Media Memory loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 368 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~59
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 368 words (~1,039 tokens).

“You have access to a persistent multimodal memory system at ~/.claude/media-memory/. It stores every piece of media (images, video, audio, files) with rich metadata and local ChromaDB embeddings.”

Can I use Media Memory 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 coco-research/coco --skill media-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/media-memory, .gemini/skills/media-memory, .github/skills/media-memory and .opencode/skills/media-memory in your project.

What does Media Memory need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Media Memory needs the command-line tools its instructions call (uv).

Does Media Memory access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Its commands use uv, which can reach the network depending on how they are called. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
