knowledge-agent
Build and query AI-powered knowledge bases from claude-mem observations. Use when users want to create focused "brains" from their observation history, ask questions about past work patterns, or compile expertise on specific topics.
npx skills add thedotmack/claude-mem --skill knowledge-agent --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Knowledge Agent Build and query AI-powered knowledge bases from claude-mem observations. ## What Are Knowledge Agents? Knowledge agents are filtered corpora of observations compiled into a conversational AI session. Build a corpus from your observation history, prime it (loads the knowledge into an AI session), then ask it questions conversationally. Think of them as custom "brains": "everything about hooks", "all decisions from the last month", "all bugfixes for the worker service". ## Workflow ### Step 1: Build a corpus ```text build_corpus name="hooks-expertise" description="Everything about the hooks lifecycle" project="claude-mem" concepts="hooks" limit=500 ``` Filter options: - `project` — filter by project name - `types` — comma-separated: decision, bugfix, feature, refactor, discovery, change - `concepts` — comma-separated concept tags - `files` — comma-separated file paths (prefix match) - `query` — semantic search query - `dateStart` / `dateEnd` — ISO date range - `limit` — max observations (default 500) ### Step 2: Prime the corpus ```text prime_corpus name="hooks-expertise" ``` This creates an AI session loaded with all the corpus knowledge. Takes a moment for large c

What does the knowledge-agent skill do?
Build and query AI-powered knowledge bases from claude-mem observations. Use when users want to create focused "brains" from their observation history, ask questions about past work patterns, or compile expertise on specific topics.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add thedotmack/claude-mem --skill knowledge-agent --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From thedotmack/claude-mem, a repository with 89,517 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
