Start a new session afterwards so the agent picks the skill up. In Claude Code you can also call it directly with /mem-search-4.

Choose one of the two built-in flows below; both perform index → context → selected details. Do not start by fetching full records. Model-facing tool replies must be concise purpose-specific text. Give the agent only useful titles, context, and selected memory prose; keep structured envelopes, storage fields, and internal state out of model context. Results are readable text, not raw JSON. Ask for another layer only when it helps answer the current question. Memory contents are…
