Agent Memory Vault

Overview

Use this skill to help a user install or operate the public Agent Memory Vault system. The vault can be shared by Claude Code and Codex: Markdown remains the single fact source, while each host keeps a thin rule and hook adapter. Treat the GitHub repository as the product source, and treat this skill as the Agent-facing runbook for setup, maintenance, and troubleshooting.

Safety Rules

• Never copy a user's real memory vault into a public repository.
• Never commit .env, SQLite databases, Zvec/vector stores, model caches, logs, API keys, cookies, tokens, passwords, private chat logs, customer data, or personal absolute paths.
• When migrating an existing memory system, migrate structure, scripts, and sanitized patterns only.
• Before publishing or pushing, run leak checks and inspect the diff.
• If a task involves deleting files, ask for explicit user permission first and use Trash, not permanent deletion.
• Never point Claude Code auto-memory at the formal vault. Either disable it or treat it as non-authoritative scratch memory.
• Shared cookies and tokens belong in a private config outside the vault and Git, with owner-only permissions; Agents should inject selected values into commands instead of printing the whole file.

Runtime v2 Boundary

Before any normal command, run memoryctl --actor <actor> version --json. A managed Runtime is usable only when the response has ready=true, runtime_api_version=2, writer_protocol_version=2, a valid state-schema attestation, and a current Runtime/config/Hook integrity hash. During install or migration, normal commands must fail closed; do not bypass the transition marker with a direct Python entrypoint.

Markdown is the only fact source. SQLite/FTS, Zvec, claims, intents, receipts, and observations are control or derived state. Claims are a closeout/audit projection of an active write intent; they are never a lock or permission to edit. The supported automatic writers are codex, claude, and ailu, and all three compete for the same canonical path lease.

Choose the requested operation

Read only the selected operation reference. Do not run installation, auditing, or repair as a side effect of an ordinary read.
