Agent skills, explained: the folder format every AI tool now reads
One folder, one markdown file, and suddenly every AI coding tool speaks the same language. What agent skills are, how to write one, and where memory fits in.
Founder of MemoryPlugin I've been working on AI projects since 2016. As an avid user of AI tools, I use AI to code, strategise, improve my health, grow my business, and free up time to live :)
One folder, one markdown file, and suddenly every AI coding tool speaks the same language. What agent skills are, how to write one, and where memory fits in.
MemoryPlugin Labs 001: In late 2024 I tried to fine-tune my own memories into a model's weights. It hallucinated a dog, repainted my Kindle, and invented a new person to be me nearly every time I asked. From the actual transcripts.
Your AI conversations are scattered across five apps and eight logins. Here is how to get all of them, from every account and platform, into one searchable place.
Gemini can remember your chats, your saved info, and your Google apps. Whether you get any of that depends on your account and your region.
DeepSeek starts every chat from zero. What it saves versus what it recalls, why the API forgets by design, and how to give it a memory that travels.
Claude now remembers you on every plan. What each memory layer actually does, where the gaps are, and how to keep your context portable.
Why we built a Mac app that syncs your Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor sessions into one searchable memory, and what never leaves your machine.
Anthropic cut 80 percent of Claude Code's prompt and rewrote the rules of context engineering. Quality mode applies the same discipline to your conversations.
How Claude Code's two memory systems work, where the files live, and what stays stuck on one repo and one machine.
