Anti-pattern guard. Before writing code, drafting a doc, or making a decision: recall relevant memories first, then produce the answer with explicit citations to recalled memory IDs. Forces “memory before action” discipline.

​
Arguments

​
task
string
required
What you are about to do. One sentence describing the code task, decision, or document draft.
​
entity_hint
string
Optional entity to focus recall on.

​
Workflow

  1. Call recall with the task description
  2. Skim returned memories and identify applicable caveats
  3. Produce output with inline citations: [memory:1234]
  4. If no relevant memories found, state explicitly: “No prior context found”

​
Why this matters

Without this prompt, agents tend to act first and recall later (or not at all). This creates:
  • Repeated mistakes that caveats could have prevented
  • Inconsistent decisions across sessions
  • Wasted tokens re-discovering known constraints
The recall-and-write pattern ensures every significant action is informed by prior context.
