# Memory Notes

Write notes your future self can actually find and follow

## What this does

A note is easy to write and easy to write badly, and the cost shows up later when nothing connects to anything. This is guidance on how to structure Basic Memory notes: what goes at the top, how to record observations, and how to link notes to each other. Reach for it when writing a note or fixing one.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Write a note that will still make sense later
- Link a note to the others it belongs with
- Improve a note that already exists

## Questions

### Is Memory Notes safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Memory Notes and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit 592d2505e124, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/memory-notes.

### How do I install Memory Notes?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/memory-notes on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/basicmachines-co/basic-memory/tree/592d2505e12456f7f75132f66e6cf59dc12f33fa/skills/memory-notes. Install from that link, not the branch.
