Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned simhacker/moollm at 8f6d840b2f.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

The memory-palace skill allows AI agents to organize and recall information using a mental palace technique. It structures data into virtual locations within a familiar environment, enabling improved memory retention and retrieval. The agent can store facts, concepts, or tasks associated with specific "locations" in the palace.

When to use it

  • Learning new material: Helps an AI agent memorize complex topics like historical dates or scientific formulas by associating them with distinct locations.
  • Task management: Organize a list of tasks within the mental palace, assigning each task to a specific location for easy recall and prioritization.
  • Creative brainstorming: Store ideas in different rooms of the palace, allowing the agent to revisit and connect concepts later.
  • Complex planning: Structure steps of a plan across locations in the palace, aiding in sequential execution and reducing errors.

Key capabilities

  • Creates virtual environments (palaces)
  • Associates data with specific locations within a palace
  • Retrieves information based on location cues
  • Supports multiple palaces for different domains

Example prompts

  • "Create a memory palace called 'My House' and store the first 10 presidents of the United States, placing each in a different room."
  • “Add ‘Buy groceries’ to the kitchen of my ‘Shopping List’ palace.”
  • "Show me all the items stored in the living room of my 'My House' memory palace."

Tips & gotchas

The effectiveness of this skill relies on the agent's ability to create and maintain a consistent mental map. Clear and distinct location descriptions will improve recall accuracy.
