Best use case

remembering-conversations is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.

Use when user asks 'how should I...' or 'what's the best approach...' after exploring code, OR when you've tried to solve something and are stuck, OR for unfamiliar workflows, OR when user references past work. Searches conversation history.

Teams using remembering-conversations should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.

When to use this skill

  • You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.

When not to use this skill

  • You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
  • You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Remembering Conversations

**Core principle:** Search before reinventing. Searching costs nothing; reinventing or repeating mistakes costs everything.

## Mandatory: Use the Search Agent

**YOU MUST dispatch the search-conversations agent for any historical search.**

Announce: "Dispatching search agent to find [topic]."

Then use the Task tool with `subagent_type: "search-conversations"`:

```
Task tool:
  description: "Search past conversations for [topic]"
  prompt: "Search for [specific query or topic]. Focus on [what you're looking for - e.g., decisions, patterns, gotchas, code examples]."
  subagent_type: "search-conversations"
```

The agent will:
1. Search with the `search` tool
2. Read top 2-5 results with the `show` tool
3. Synthesize findings (200-1000 words)
4. Return actionable insights + sources

**Saves 50-100x context vs. loading raw conversations.**

## When to Use

You often get value out of consulting your episodic memory once you understand what you're being asked. Search memory in these situations:

**After understanding the task:**
- User asks "how should I..." or "what's the best approach..."
- You've explored current codebase and need to make architectural decisions
- User asks for implementation approach after describing what they want

**When you're stuck:**
- You've investigated a problem and can't find the solution
- Facing a complex problem without obvious solution in current code
- Need to follow an unfamiliar workflow or process

**When historical signals are present:**
- User says "last time", "before", "we discussed", "you implemented"
- User asks "why did we...", "what was the reason..."
- User says "do you remember...", "what do we know about..."

**Don't search first:**
- For current codebase structure (use Grep/Read to explore first)
- For info in current conversation
- Before understanding what you're being asked to do

## Direct Tool Access (Discouraged)

You CAN use MCP tools directly, but DON'T:
- `mcp__plugin_episodic-memory_episodic-memory__search`
- `mcp__plugin_episodic-memory_episodic-memory__show`

Using these directly wastes your context window. Always dispatch the agent instead.

See MCP-TOOLS.md for complete API reference if needed for advanced usage.

Use this skill any time a spreadsheet file is the primary input or output. This means any task where the user wants to: open, read, edit, or fix an existing .xlsx, .xlsm, .csv, or .tsv file (e.g., adding columns, computing formulas, formatting, charting, cleaning messy data); create a new spreadsheet from scratch or from other data sources; or convert between tabular file formats. Trigger especially when the user references a spreadsheet file by name or path — even casually (like "the xlsx in my downloads") — and wants something done to it or produced from it. Also trigger for cleaning or restructuring messy tabular data files (malformed rows, misplaced headers, junk data) into proper spreadsheets. The deliverable must be a spreadsheet file. Do NOT trigger when the primary deliverable is a Word document, HTML report, standalone Python script, database pipeline, or Google Sheets API integration, even if tabular data is involved.
