Carry Coding-Agent Memory Across Tools with Engrim

Use Engrim to give Codex CLI, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot CLI, and Google Antigravity a shared local SQLite memory for project decisions, resumable context, and cross-agent continuity.

Quick brief

Engrim is useful when coding work moves between agents or sessions and important project decisions keep getting lost after context clears. The repeatable workflow is to install Engrim, run setup so it detects supported agent environments, let hooks or MCP tools capture decisions and facts into a local SQLite store, check integrations with engrim doctor, and resume future sessions from a compact memory pack instead of restating the whole project.\n\nInvoke this skill when a user needs local, project-scoped memory across several coding-agent tools instead of relying on one product’s chat history or repeatedly pasting prior context. Keep the scope to coding-agent episodic memory, hook or MCP setup, and setup diagnostics. Do not use it as a generic vector database, note-taking app, hosted memory service, or broad knowledge-management product listing; the boundary is agent continuity for software projects.

How it works

What this skill actually does

Inputs and prerequisites: Python 3.10 or newer, engrim package, supported coding-agent environments such as Codex CLI, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot CLI, or Google Antigravity.

Setup notes: Install with pip install engrim, then run engrim setup to auto-detect supported environments. Use engrim doctor –fix to repair hook or MCP integration issues.

Source and verification boundary: use https://engrim.dev as the canonical reference before running the workflow; keep commands, API calls, CLI usage, and generated outputs reviewable against that upstream source.

Framework fit: publish this as a Multi-Framework workflow only when the operator can invoke the documented toolchain directly, rather than treating the upstream project as a generic product listing.
