hindsight-recall - SKILL.md Agent Skill

name: hindsight-recall description: Search long-term memory for relevant context from past coding sessions using Hindsight MCP tools

Use when the user explicitly asks about past decisions, project context, preferences, or anything that may have been discussed in prior sessions.

Identify the key topic or question from the user's request.
Check if <hindsight_memories> in the current context already contains relevant results from the automatic session-start recall.
If session memory already covered it, use those memories directly.
If the user needs more specific or deeper recall, use the Hindsight MCP recall tool to search for additional memories.
If you want to reason over accumulated memories for architectural decisions, use the reflect tool.

Only use MCP tools for deeper recall when the session-start memory was insufficient.
When memories conflict with current context, prefer current context and note the discrepancy.
Do not expose raw memory metadata to the user unless asked.

If MCP tools are not available, advise the user to check their .cursor/mcp.json configuration
