OpenViking long-term memory for GitHub Copilot: MCP recall/persist tools (incl. native add_skill) plus local skill tools (update/validate_skill) and task_status, automatic session capture with PreCompact archiving, profile injection at SessionStart, viking:// URI guarding, and automatic recall injection (auto-recall + auto-capture + doctor).
Recall and persist long-term memory through the OpenViking MCP tools. Use at the start of any substantive task (coding, configuration, debugging, multi-step or tool-based work) to retrieve relevant prior knowledge with find/search/read, and during or after work to persist durable facts, preferences, decisions, and lessons with remember. Do not use for casual chat or simple factual questions the model can answer directly.
Find, use, create, install, share, update, and migrate agent skills stored in OpenViking (viking://~/skills and viking://agent/skills). Use it when a search result, or the session's <available-skills> list where the harness injects one, names a skill that fits the task; when a task looks like one a stored skill would cover; when the user asks to write, save, install, or share a skill from text, a Git repository, or a local folder; when a skill should work in every harness and on every machine; or when the user wants to move local skills (~/.claude/skills, ~/.agents/skills, ~/.cursor/skills) into OpenViking — "upload my skills", "save this as a skill", "迁移本地 skill", "把 skill 存到 OpenViking", "新建一个 skill". Covers the add_skill tool, running a skill's helper files, and which local skills must stay local.
Retrieve and apply OpenViking Experience memories through the Agent runtime's generic OpenViking search and read tools. Use before or during executable, multi-step, or tool-based work such as coding, file or data changes, configuration, deployment, workflow execution, and failure recovery when prior operational guidance could improve reliability. Do not use for casual chat or simple factual questions.
Diagnose OpenViking memory issues by tracing backward from a memory file to its archive memory_diff.json and, when needed, session messages. Read-only; use for incorrect content, wrong paths or owners, missing memories, and unexplained updates or deletes.
Search and read documents, repos, URLs, and other resources stored in OpenViking under viking://resources/. Use whenever the user asks about docs, specs, codebases, papers, or notes that were added to OpenViking ("check the docs", "what does our design doc say", "find it in OpenViking"), or when a task needs reference material this session does not have. Covers picking between find, grep, glob, and list, and drilling from a hit down to the exact file.
