What it does
Codememory Context Skill is an agent skill from harrylettering/CodeMemory. This skill should be used when the user asks questions about past conversations, wants to recall previous discussions, references "earlier", "before", "previous", "what did we say", "remember when", or any query that requires retrieving information from conversation history. Automatically retrieves and injects relevant context from the CodeMemory memory system.
Its SKILL.md is about 600 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: A memory layer for Claude Code.
When your agent uses it
- Asks questions about past conversations
- Wants to recall previous discussions
- References earlier
- What did we say
Example prompts
- “earlier”
- “before”
- “previous”
- “/codememory-context-skill”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Identify the Context Need: Determine what time period or topic the user is asking about
- Retrieve Relevant Content: Use /codememory-grep to search for matching content
- Expand if Needed: Use /codememory-expand on promising summaries for more detail
- Inject Context: Add the retrieved information to the conversation context
- Answer the User: Use the injected context to provide an informed answer
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b7e96f7. 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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).
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
Codememory Context Skill loads about 599 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 97 tokens; SKILL.md has 218 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
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 218 words (~599 tokens).
