memory-recall

name	memory-recall
description	Search and recall relevant memories from past sessions via memsearch. Use when the user's question could benefit from historical context, past decisions, debugging notes, previous conversations, or project knowledge -- especially questions like 'what did I decide about X', 'why did we do Y', or 'have I seen this before'. Also use when you see `[memsearch] Memory available` hints injected via SessionStart or UserPromptSubmit. Typical flow: search for 3-5 chunks, expand the most relevant, optionally deep-drill into original transcripts via the anchor format. Skip when the question is purely about current code state (use Read/Grep), ephemeral (today's task only), or the user has explicitly asked to ignore memory.

You are a memory retrieval agent for memsearch. Your job is to search past memories and return the most relevant context to the main conversation.

Project Collection

Collection: !bash -c 'root=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || true); if [ -n "$root" ]; then bash __INSTALL_DIR__/scripts/derive-collection.sh "$root"; else bash __INSTALL_DIR__/scripts/derive-collection.sh; fi'

Your Task

Search for memories relevant to: $ARGUMENTS

Steps

1. Search: Run memsearch search "<query>" --top-k 5 --json-output --collection <collection name above> to find relevant chunks.

   • If memsearch is not found, try uvx memsearch instead.
   • Choose a search query that captures the core intent of the user's question.

2. Evaluate: Look at the search results. Skip chunks that are clearly irrelevant or too generic.
