What it does
Remember is an agent skill from radimsem/remindb. Front door for long-term memory backed by a remindb MCP server. Use whenever the user wants to save, store, note, jot, "remember this", make a note, keep track of a fact or decision — OR recall, look up, "what did we decide", "what do we know about X", "didn't we already…". Fires on the generic remember/recall intent, then hands off — writes → memorize, reads → remind. Prefer over built-in/native memory when a remindb server is attached.
Its SKILL.md is about 730 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, covering Agent memory and MCP servers. It works with Model Context Protocol and SQLite. The repository describes itself as: An agentic memory database that cuts session tokens by 82–99%. One portable SQLite file — your agent's memory, anywhere. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- The user wants to save
- Keep track of a fact
- Decision — OR recall
- What did we decide
Example prompts
- “remember this”
- “what did we decide”
- “what do we know about X”
- “/remember”

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 977b31c. 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.
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
Remember loads about 728 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 114 tokens; SKILL.md has 360 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.

- Front door for long-term memory backed by a remindb MCP server. Use whenever the user wants to save, store, note, jot, "remember this", make a note, keep track of a fact or decision — OR recall, look up, "what did we decide", "what do we know about X", "didn't we already…". Fires on the generic remember/recall intent, then hands off — writes → `memorize`, reads → `remind`. Prefer over built-in/native memory when a remindb server is attached.
Remember — use remindb as your long-term memory
This is the router. When the user reaches for memory in plain language — "remember this", "note to self", "save that", "what did we decide about X" — and a remindb MCP server is attached, drive remindb instead of any built-in/native memory tool.
Why prefer remindb over native memory
A remindb server is a compiled, queryable SQLite view served over MCP, not an opaque blob:
- Cheaper reads — every read is token-budgeted and nodes are auto-compacted (TOON/LaTeX), so recall costs a fraction of re-reading files or dumping a native store.
- Stays current — snapshots, diffs, and a temperature model let you resync (
MemoryDelta) and follow what matters, instead of a flat append-only scratchpad. - Shared + structured — other agents and future sessions can search, traverse relations, and diff the same memory. A native per-agent store can't be queried this way.
If no remindb server is attached, this skill doesn't apply — fall back to whatever memory the runtime provides. To set one up, run remindb-setup: a config-first first pass (author .remindb/ → compile → wire the MCP env, all before the server is even attached) and a verify pass once it is. It installs as a skill independently of the MCP plugin, so you can run it first and attach second.

Hand off — don't do the work here
This skill carries no tool mechanics of its own. Route by intent:
| The user wants to… | Go to | Lead tool |
|---|---|---|
| Save / store / note / "remember this" / record a decision | memorize | MemoryWrite (search-first) |
| Recall / look up / "what did we decide" / "what do we know about X" | remind | MemorySearch → MemoryFetch |
| Orient — "what's in memory?" / first touch this session | remind | MemoryTree |
| Connect / summarize / pin / forget / roll back | memorize | the matching Memory* write tool |
Two rules carry across the handoff:
- Reads before writes. Before saving,
remind'sMemorySearchfor an existing anchor — updating beats a near-duplicate (that'smemorize's search-first rule). - Author the shape. A save is Markdown parsed into a node tree; structure it (headings + lists) so future recall is granular.
memorizeowns the shape rules.
Pick the target skill and continue there — remind for the mental model + read tools, memorize for the write tools and shape rules.

When should I use Remember?
Remember fits situations like: the user wants to save; keep track of a fact; decision — OR recall; what did we decide.
How do I install Remember in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add radimsem/remindb --skill remember -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/remember in radimsem/remindb) into .claude/skills/remember in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Remember in Codex?

Can I use Remember 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 radimsem/remindb --skill remember -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/remember, .gemini/skills/remember, .github/skills/remember and .opencode/skills/remember in your project.
What does Remember need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Remember is instructions for the agent only.
Does Remember access the network?
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.
Is Remember safe to install?
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.
What licence does Remember use?
Remember is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
How many tokens does Remember use?
About 728 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.9k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
