cortex-recall
cdeust/CortexSkill
Search and retrieve memories from Cortex persistent memory. Use when the user asks 'what did we decide about X', 'do you remember', 'what was the fix for', 'find that thing about', 'search memories', 'what do we know about', 'have we seen this before', or when you need context about past decisions, patterns, bugs, or architecture choices. Also use proactively when working on something that likely has relevant historical context.
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 75 stars are split between them (about 8 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 59/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank
Security
Scanned Oct 21, 2026 at commit df3a4479fbd0, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.
None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
