Memo Skill - Personal Memory System
Record and retrieve observations about user's work patterns, habits, and preferences.
First: Check the Clock
Before recording or recalling, run: date "+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z"
Time context is essential for memos - patterns are time-sensitive.
Purpose
Make Claude more personal and adapted to aviz's work style by:
- •Recording patterns as they emerge
- •Retrieving relevant memories when context matches
- •Learning from what works and what doesn't
Data Location

When to RECORD (proactively)
Record a memo when you notice:
- •Time pattern - Break extended, session ran long/short, late start
- •Energy pattern - When energy dropped, what helped
- •Preference expressed - User states how they like something
- •Success - Something worked particularly well
- •Blocker - Something got in the way
- •Habit - Recurring behavior (positive or negative)
Entry Format
markdown
### YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM #tag1 #tag2 @context **Observation:** What happened factually **Insight:** What this means for future interactions
When to RECALL (proactively)
Retrieve relevant memos during:
- •Standup - Search
@standup#timing#habit - •Planning - Search
@planning#preference#pattern - •Energy drop - Search
#energy#blocker - •Similar context - Search relevant
@contextor@project - •Weekly review - Search
#success#blocker#pattern
Usage Examples
Recording
When user extends a break:
code
I notice you extended the break. Let me note this pattern. [Add entry to memo.md]
Recalling
During standup:
code
[Search memo.md for @standup #timing] Based on past patterns, I see you often start later than planned...
Integration with GTD
