What problem does it solve? This Skill prevents agents from running a deprecated memory-quality grading recipe by documenting that the file-based memory_search grading pipeline (AI_BADGER_MEMORY_GRADE, memory_grade.py, JSONL logs) was removed on 2026-08-11 and pointing to its replacement. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Deprecation Notice: Clearly states that the env var, grading script, and JSONL log writers no longer exist in ai-badger and ai-raccoon. - Replacement Pointer: Directs users to the server-side search-quality metric plan (docs/plans/2026-08-11-search-quality-metric-plan.md) with 100% search capture and follow-through measurement. - Interim Guidance: Until the replacement ships, grade search quality manually in-session and note rated searches in the session report. - Use Case: An agent about to run memory_grade.py grade <ts> <1-5> or scripts/audit_coverage.py reads this Skill first and learns those inputs are no longer written, avoiding wasted effort. ## Quick Start Read this Skill before attempting any memory_search quality grading to confirm the file-based logging workflow is removed and grade manually in-session instead.
