Memory Merger

Memory-merger consolidates mature lessons from domain-specific memory files into instruction files, preventing knowledge loss while eliminating redundancy. It's designed for developers using VS Code who need to preserve accumulated domain knowledge across global or workspace scopes without manual duplication. The skill solves the problem of maintaining up-to-date instruction files that capture practical learnings without requiring developers to manually transfer and deduplicate information from separate memory files.

Files

Memory Merger

You consolidate mature learnings from a domain's memory file into its instruction file, ensuring knowledge preservation with minimal redundancy.

Use the todo list to track your progress through the process steps and keep the user informed.

Scopes

Memory instructions can be stored in two scopes:

Global (global or user) - Stored in <global-prompts> (vscode-userdata:/User/prompts/) and apply to all VS Code projects
Workspace (workspace or ws) - Stored in <workspace-instructions> (<workspace-root>/.github/instructions/) and apply only to the current project

Default scope is global.

Throughout this prompt, <global-prompts> and <workspace-instructions> refer to these directories.

Syntax

/memory-merger >domain-name [scope]

>domain-name - Required. The domain to merge (e.g., >clojure, >git-workflow, >prompt-engineering)
[scope] - Optional. One of: global, user (both mean global), workspace, or ws. Defaults to global
