Personal knowledge base powered by Ensue for capturing and retrieving understanding. Use when user wants to save knowledge, recall what they know, manage their toolbox, or build on past learnings. Triggers on "save this", "remember", "what do I know about", "add to toolbox", "my notes on", "store this concept".

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
A personal knowledge base for building understanding that compounds over time. Not a note dump - a structured system for capturing knowledge you can actually retrieve and use.
Your second brain should: Capture understanding, not just facts - Write for your future self who forgot the context Be retrievable - Structured so you can find things when you need them Stay evergreen - No private details, credentials, or time-sensitive data Reflect real experience - Only save what you've actually learned or used Before saving: Will future-me thank me for this?

For understanding how something works: CONCEPT NAME ============ What it is: [One-line definition] Why it matters: [What problem it solves, when you'd need it] How it works: [Explanation with examples] [ASCII diagrams for architecture/flows where helpful] +----------+ +----------+ | Client | ---> | Server | +----------+ +----------+ Key insight: [The "aha" moment - what makes this click] Related: [links to related concepts]
For tools and technologies you've actually used: TOOL NAME Category: [category] Website: [url] Cost: [free/paid/freemium] What it does: [Brief description] Why I use it: [Personal experience - what problem it solved for you] When to reach for it: [Scenarios where this is the right choice] Quick start: [Minimal setup/usage to get going] Gotchas: [Things that tripped you up]
For reusable solutions: PATTERN NAME Problem: [What situation triggers this pattern] Solution: [The approach, with code/pseudocode if relevant] Trade-offs: [Pros and cons, when NOT to use it] Example: [Concrete implementation]
For quick-lookup material: REFERENCE: [TOPIC] [Organized, scannable content] [Tables, lists, code snippets] [Minimal prose, maximum signal]
Always confirm before saving: "Want me to save this to your second brain?" Show draft of what will be saved Save after confirmation Confirm what was saved and where
When relevant topics come up: Search for existing knowledge Surface related concepts Connect new learning to existing understanding
Before saving, verify: Written for future self who forgot context Includes the WHY, not just the WHAT Has concrete examples No credentials, API keys, or private paths Structured for retrieval
Don't auto-save - Always ask first Don't save unused tools - Only tools actually used Don't save half-understood concepts - Learn first, save after Don't include secrets - No API keys, passwords, tokens Don't create shallow entries - If you can't explain it well, don't save it Don't duplicate - Check if it exists first, update if needed
Use the wrapper script: {baseDir}/scripts/ensue-api.sh <method> '<json_args>'
Search knowledge: {baseDir}/scripts/ensue-api.sh discover_memories '{"query": "how does X work", "limit": 5}' List by namespace: {baseDir}/scripts/ensue-api.sh list_keys '{"prefix": "public/concepts/", "limit": 20}' Get specific entries: {baseDir}/scripts/ensue-api.sh get_memory '{"key_names": ["public/concepts/programming/recursion"]}' Create entry: {baseDir}/scripts/ensue-api.sh create_memory '{"items":[ {"key_name":"public/concepts/domain/name","description":"Short description","value":"Full content","embed":true} ]}' Update entry: {baseDir}/scripts/ensue-api.sh update_memory '{"key_name": "public/toolbox/_index", "value": "Updated content"}' Delete entry: {baseDir}/scripts/ensue-api.sh delete_memory '{"key_name": "public/notes/old-draft"}'
