From cortex
Stores knowledge globally across all projects in Cortex memory. Use for architecture rules, conventions, infrastructure facts, security policies, or team agreements that apply universally.

Store knowledge that transcends any single project into Cortex's global memory. Global memories bypass domain filtering during recall — they're visible from every project you work on. Use this for architecture rules, coding conventions, infrastructure facts, security policies, and team agreements.
Cortex auto-detects many global patterns (clean architecture, dependency injection, server addresses, etc.), but use this skill explicitly when you want to guarantee cross-project visibility.
Good candidates for global memory:
Not global (project-specific): bug fixes, feature decisions for one project, file-specific notes.
cortex:remember({
"content": "<clear, self-contained knowledge that applies across projects>",
"tags": ["<category>", "<topic>"],
"is_global": true,
"force": true
})
Content guidelines:
The response includes:
is_global: true — confirms cross-project visibilityglobal_reason: "explicit" — stored because you explicitly requested itGlobal memories are already high-value, but if they must never decay:
cortex:anchor({
"memory_id": <id>,
"reason": "Core architecture rule — permanent"
})
Even without is_global: true, Cortex automatically detects global content using a weighted signal classifier across 6 categories:
| Category | Example signals |
|---|---|
| Architecture | clean architecture, SOLID, dependency injection, composition root |
| Convention | coding standard, naming convention, best practice, team agreement |
| Infrastructure | server at, database URL, Docker compose, CI/CD pipeline |
| Security | API key rotation, credential policy, authentication, encryption |
| Cross-project | all projects, shared across, universal, applies everywhere |
| Knowledge | UTC timestamps, WAL mode, connection pools, idempotency |
If the weighted score exceeds threshold 3.0, the memory is automatically global — no explicit flag needed.

Use to surface knowledge stored as global across all projects.
Saves key project knowledge explicitly to MEMORY.md via /si:remember for reliable recall. Checks duplicates, warns on size, suggests CLAUDE.md promotion.
Saves architectural decisions, patterns, conventions, or project knowledge to personal or team Cognis persistent memory using node scripts.
