What it does

This skill makes an agent act as a scheduled 'seat' for the claude-mem memory plugin. Once an hour it checks that the local claude-mem worker is healthy, pulls recent notable observations (decisions, bugfixes, security alerts) through claude-mem's search tools, and stores them in a separate cache file, avoiding duplicates. It can also exclude or restore specific observations in that cache, and compare configuration layers (house, project, seat rules) to flag conflicts in an append-only report.

Great for

  • Developers already running claude-mem who want an hourly curated cache of key observations
  • Teams maintaining layered agent rule files who want conflict reports between house, project and seat rules

Skip it if

  • Users without a local claude-mem worker installed, since every step depends on it
  • Anyone expecting it to delete history or enforce rules: the SKILL.md states it does neither; exclude marks only filter the compiled cache

Try asking

  • “Run CCS Align and refresh the middle cache”
  • “Exclude this observation from the middle cache and later restore it”
  • “Check rules conflicts between house, project and seat rules”
  • “Check the Worker Watch board status”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Check that CLAUDE_MEM_CCS_ALIGN_ENABLED is true and the worker is running before the first cycle
  • Leave CLAUDE_MEM_CCS_ALIGN_PATCH_SHADOWS false unless you want the rules walker to modify shadowed leaf files
  • Remember that excluding an observation only removes it from middle.jsonl; the underlying diary and database remain intact
