  • Works in 7 steps: Run docmancer ask "" --agent codex when… → Follow a cited stable address with… → When the user explicitly asks to… → …
  • Agent Workflows work in your project
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Docmancer Memory is an agent skill from docmancer/docmancer. Recall and write source-attributed local memory.

Its SKILL.md is about 410 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 Agent Workflows. The repository describes itself as: Find out what your coding agents already know. Docmancer indexes the memory, rules, and instructions Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Gemini wrote on your machine, then carries… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Agent Workflows work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/docmancer-memory”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(docmancer *)

Workflow steps

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

  1. Run docmancer ask "" --agent codex when prior decisions, conventions, or preferences may matter.
  2. Follow a cited stable address with docmancer read when the complete file or provenance is needed.
  3. When the user explicitly asks to remember a durable fact or decision, use docmancer write with an explicit project-relative path.
  4. Before editing or moving existing memory, read it and pass its current content hash.
  5. Use docmancer import only when the user asks to copy arbitrary Markdown into the project inbox.
  6. Use docmancer common, delivery, or timeline for recurring memory, delivery proof, or canonical decision history.
  7. Use docmancer docs ... separately for library and vendor documentation.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c5c76c6. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash(docmancer *)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

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

  • 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

Docmancer Memory loads about 411 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 16 tokens; SKILL.md has 153 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~16
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~411

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.
