Smart Memory Query
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.
Overview
This instruction-only skill is broadly scoped to search memory often, but that behavior is disclosed and matches its stated purpose.
Use this skill if you want the agent to proactively consult stored memory for context. Be aware that it is always-on and intentionally broad, so prior memories may influence many tasks; review your stored memory if that matters.
Findings (2)
Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
The agent may perform memory lookups more often than expected, which can influence answers with prior context.
The skill explicitly changes agent behavior by requiring memory_search in broad situations. This is the stated purpose, but it reduces agent discretion and may cause tool use when the user did not directly request it.
Trigger: run `memory_search` when any of these apply ... If unsure, search. Missed context costs more than one extra search.
Install only if you want an always-on memory-search policy; disable it for sessions where prior memory should not influence the task.
Stored memories about people, projects, preferences, or prior decisions may be surfaced and reused in later tasks.
The skill encourages retrieval of stored memory across new tasks and proper nouns, which may bring prior personal or project context into the current conversation.
- **T2 New task**: before starting a new topic/task, check prior preferences/decisions. - **T3 Proper noun**: project, tool, service, or person name appears.
Review and prune stored memories if needed, and treat retrieved memory as helpful context rather than guaranteed current truth.
