ReMe Working Memory
Use this skill for ReMe's working-memory and context-engineering primitives.
When to Use
Use this skill when you need to:
- keep long-running agent sessions below context limits
- offload oversized message or tool content into files
- reload offloaded content through grep and targeted file reads
- choose between compact, compress, or hybrid working-summary modes
Do not use this skill for long-term semantic memory policy, personal/task/tool memory classification, or service startup.
Core Surface
This skill centers on two operation families:
- message offload operations
- message reload operations
Typical reload tools include grep-style search and targeted file reads over offloaded artifacts.
Usage Pattern
- monitor context growth and tool output size
- offload non-essential large content before the next reasoning step
- preserve references so full content can be reloaded later
- reload only the slices needed for the current step
Design Rules
- optimize active context, not archival storage
- prefer reversible offload before destructive summarization
- keep recent, high-value messages in active context
- reload surgically instead of rehydrating everything
