ArtemXTechInstall Recall
Pick your agent. Every command is ready to paste.
npx skills add ArtemXTech/personal-os-skills --skill recallThe open skills CLI detects your agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and 70+ more) and installs to the right folder. Add -g to install globally.
01
Install it
Run the command above, or upload the folder in Claude.
02
Ask naturally
Describe the task. Your agent loads recall when the request matches its description.
03
Name it if needed
If it does not trigger, say “use the recall skill”. In Codex, type $recall.
Recall Skill
Three modes: temporal (date-based session timeline), topic (BM25 search across QMD collections), and graph (interactive visualization of session-file relationships). Every recall ends with the One Thing - a concrete, highest-leverage next action synthesized from the results.
What It Does
- Temporal queries ("yesterday", "last week", "what was I doing"): Scans native Claude Code JSONL files by date. Shows a table of sessions with time, message count, and first message. Expand any session for conversation details.
- Topic queries ("QMD video", "authentication"): BM25 search across sessions, notes, and daily logs in QMD collections.
- Graph queries ("graph yesterday", "graph last week"): Generates an interactive HTML graph showing sessions as nodes connected to files they touched. Sessions colored by day, files colored by folder. Clusters reveal related work streams, shared files show cross-session dependencies.
- One Thing synthesis: After presenting results, synthesizes the single most impactful next action based on what has momentum, what's blocked, and what's closest to done. Not generic - specific and actionable.
No custom setup needed for temporal recall - every Claude Code user has JSONL files.
Auto-Indexing (Optional)
You can auto-index sessions into QMD on every session end via a Claude Code hook. See AGENTS.md for setup instructions.
Usage
/recall yesterday
/recall last week
/recall 2026-02-25
/recall QMD video
/recall authentication work
Graph mode - visualize session relationships over time:
/recall graph yesterday # what you touched today
/recall graph last week # week overview - find clusters
/recall graph this week # current week so far
/recall graph last 3 days # recent activity window
Graph options: --min-files 5 for cleaner graphs (only sessions touching 5+ files), --all-projects to scan beyond current vault.
Workflow
See workflows/recall.md for routing logic and step-by-step process.
Tips for Recall
- • Start a fresh session after installing so your agent picks up the new skill.
- • This skill ships scripts. Read them before the first run, and run it in a project without secrets first.
- • It is part of a pack with 8 skills. Install only the ones you need with --skill to keep triggers precise.
- • If two skills overlap, mention the one you want by name.
Questions about Recall
What does the Recall skill do?
Load context from vault memory. Temporal queries (yesterday, last week, session history) use native JSONL timeline. Topic queries use QMD BM25 search. "recall graph" generates interactive temporal graph of sessions and files. Every recall ends with "One Thing" - the single highest-leverage next action synthesized from results. Use when user says "recall", "what did we work on", "load context about", "remember when we
How do I install Recall?
Run "npx skills add ArtemXTech/personal-os-skills --skill recall" in your project. The skills CLI installs it for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and 70+ other agents. In Claude on the web, upload the skill folder as a ZIP under Customize > Skills.
Does Recall work in Cursor and Codex?
Yes. Recall uses the open SKILL.md format, so it works in Claude Code, Claude, Cursor, OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and other agents that support agent skills.
Is Recall free?
Recall is open source on GitHub under the MIT license. It is free to install; check the license before commercial use.
Who made Recall?
Recall is published by ArtemXTech in the ArtemXTech/personal-os-skills repository, together with 7 other skills.
