description	Read long-term memory files to get historical context, code references, and error fix records. Use when user wants to read memory, get context, check history, avoid repeating errors.

Memory - Long-term Context

Read the current session's long-term memory files to access historical context preserved across compacts.

Background

Claude Code's /compact compresses conversations to save context. Repeated compaction causes "memory decay" - important early details gradually get lost.

Max's memory system automatically saves accumulated content to files during each compact, ensuring important information is never lost.

Memory Files

File	Content	Priority
errors.md	Error fix records	Highest - Avoid repeating mistakes
context.md	User messages + technical concepts	Medium - Full background
files.md	Code file references	Low - Only when needed

Instructions

Use the memory.py script to read files with automatic truncation (large files are trimmed to last ~15000 chars to save context):

# Read errors.md only (default, recommended)
cd /path/to/skills/memory && uv run memory.py errors.md

# Read specific files
cd /path/to/skills/memory && uv run memory.py errors.md context.md

# Read all files
cd /path/to/skills/memory && uv run memory.py all

The script automatically:
