# memory-management

A skill for agent memory: it keeps and updates notes so project context survives between sessions. Useful when you are tired of re-explaining the same setup.

## What it does

\`memory-management` now lives in the `aaron-marketing-skills` bundle, under `protocol/memory-management`. The `seo-geo-claude-skills` repo no longer develops skills — it is a signpost so old links to `cross-cutting/memory-management/` still resolve. The active version moved, and that is the one to install.

Install it with `npx skills add aaron-he-zhu/aaron-marketing-skills -s memory-management`. For Claude the same installer takes an agent flag: `npx skills add aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills --skill memory-management -a claude-code`. The skill file lands at `~/.claude/skills/memory-management/SKILL.md`.

If you wired the skill up through the old `seo-geo-claude-skills` link, nothing breaks, but no updates will arrive: that copy is frozen at tag `v9.9.12`. Worth switching to the bundle, otherwise you stay on the old version.

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**

## When to use it
- keep project notes across agent sessions
- reuse earlier context instead of restating the task
- track work on a task in one place
- update agent memory as the project changes
- move the skill onto the active bundle version

## Example prompts
- show what is currently in memory for this project
- add the folder structure decision to memory
- update the project notes after the refactor
