What problem does it solve? When working with the Basic Memory plugin, it can be hard to tell whether the CLI is reachable, which project is active, whether capture hooks are healthy, or why checkpoints are not appearing. This Skill gathers all of that diagnostic state in one pass and presents a concise status report. ## Core Features & Use Cases - CLI and runtime detection: Probes basic-memory, bm, and uvx launchers to report the installed version or mark the CLI unavailable. - Configuration resolution: Merges user-level and project-level settings.json files with the hooks' precedence rules to report the active project, capture folders, output style, and session profile. - Hook health and activity checks: Runs basic-memory hook status for inbox and flush state, and queries recent session checkpoints and active tasks via search_notes. - Use Case: After setting up Basic Memory in a new repository, run the status check to confirm the primary project is pinned, event capture is enabled, and checkpoints are being written before context compaction. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to show the Basic Memory status for this project.
