memory-onboarding

Guide someone new to Basic Memory through designing and building a complete personal knowledge system — interview them about what they want to track, propose a structure, build it with schemas and instruction notes, teach them to use it, and set up their AI assistant to load it automatically. Use this skill whenever a user says they're new to Basic Memory, wants to 'get started', 'set up', or 'onboard' with Basic Memory, doesn't know what to use it for, asks how to organize their memory project or knowledge base, wants help designing folders/schemas/conventions, or asks how to make their assistant remember context between sessions. Also use it when a user has an empty or messy Basic Memory project and wants structure.

Low

W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).

What this means

The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.

Why it was flagged

The skill explicitly tells the assistant to fetch https://docs.basicmemory.com/llms.txt at runtime and treat the live docs as canonical (including raw/... .md pages) so remote content can change the agent's instructions and behavior.
