SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps agents quickly locate relevant information within their memory without needing to know the exact file paths or content, streamlining the retrieval process.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Frontmatter Search: Find memory based on structured YAML fields like domain, tags, or related decisions.
  • Content Search: Perform full-text keyword searches across all memory files for specific terms.
  • Cross-Reference Search: Discover files that directly mention a specific decision ID or are linked via related_to fields.
  • Use Case: When an agent needs to recall information about "pool exhaustion" but doesn't know which specific decision document contains it, this skill can find the most relevant files by searching keywords or cross-references.

Quick Start

Search memory for decisions related to the 'Hyperdrive' project.

FAQPage Schema
How do I search an agent's memory base when I don't know the exact file paths?

To search an agent memory base without exact file paths, you can use frontmatter fields, full-text keywords, or cross-reference graph traversal to retrieve a ranked list of relevant file paths and excerpts.

What is cross-reference graph traversal for information retrieval?

Cross-reference graph traversal for information retrieval is a search mechanism that discovers linked files by following related decision IDs up to depth one, returning relevant file paths and excerpts based on their connections.

Can I find specific knowledge base files using structured YAML frontmatter fields?

Yes, you can find knowledge base files using structured YAML frontmatter fields. The search supports filtering by metadata like domain, tags, or related decisions to locate relevant memory files.

How do I perform a full-text keyword search across all memory files?

To perform full-text keyword search across memory files, input specific terms into the content search function. It scans all files and returns a ranked list of IDs, titles, and excerpts prioritizing relevance.

Does memory search return results that stay within token limits?

Yes, memory search returns results that stay within token limits. It prioritizes relevance and provides a constrained list of file paths, IDs, titles, and excerpts to ensure efficient information retrieval.

What is the best way to retrieve unknown decision documents about a specific topic like pool exhaustion?

The best way to retrieve unknown decision documents about topics like pool exhaustion is using full-text keyword or cross-reference search to instantly locate and rank relevant memory files without knowing exact locations.
