What it does
Memory Retrieve is an agent skill from digipulse-engineering/GAAI-framework. Load only the minimum relevant memory for a task using 3-level progressive disclosure. Activate before context-building — never load full memory dumps. Never substitute summaries for durable memory.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: Works with any filesystem-based AI coding agent
It sits in Development. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Turns AI coding tools into reliable software delivery systems. Drop a .gaai/ folder into any project — Discovery defines what to build, Delivery executes autonomously until…
When your agent uses it
- Development work in your project
Example prompts
- “/memory-retrieve”
Requirements
- Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Works with any filesystem-based AI coding agent
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Read memory index (contexts/memory/index.md). This contains
- Identify relevant decisions for the current task
- Load memory by durability class
- For Decision Consistency Gate
- Freshness Check (Tier 2 files only)
- Return memory_context_bundle — curated, minimal set of memory files relevant to the current task, plus any freshness_warnings produced in…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a26ea7a. 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:
git
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, 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.
Compatibility
Works with any filesystem-based AI coding agent
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Context cost
Memory Retrieve loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 611 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.
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 611 words (~1,584 tokens).
“Activate before context-building whenever a task requires historical context.”
