description	Manage SSOT, memory, and cross-tool memory search. Guardian of decisions.md and patterns.md. Use when user mentions memory, SSOT, decisions.md, patterns.md, merging, migration, SSOT promotion, sync memory, save learnings, memory search, harness-mem, past decisions, or record this. Do NOT load for: implementation work, reviews, ad-hoc notes, or in-session logging.

Unified Harness Memory (Shared DB)

For recording and searching shared across Claude Code / Codex / OpenCode, prefer harness_mem_* MCP.

• Search: harness_mem_search, harness_mem_timeline, harness_mem_get_observations
• Inject: harness_mem_resume_pack
• Record: harness_mem_record_checkpoint, harness_mem_finalize_session, harness_mem_record_event

Relationship with Claude Code Auto-Memory (D22)

Harness SSOT memory (Layer 2) coexists with Claude Code auto-memory (Layer 1). Auto-memory implicitly records general learnings, while SSOT explicitly manages project-specific decisions. When Layer 1 insights are important for the whole project, promote them to Layer 2 with /memory ssot.
