Unified Memory
Use the ECC Memory Vault as the common context layer between harnesses. The
vault stores portable ecc.memory.v1 Markdown documents rather than
harness-specific transcripts or inboxes.
Runtime Prerequisite
This skill is guidance, not the Memory Vault executable. Skill-only, minimal,
manual, and Claude plugin installs do not create the required commands on
PATH. Install the ecc-universal npm runtime separately before using the CLI
or MCP examples:
npm install -g ecc-universal
ecc memory --help
command -v ecc-memory-mcp
A repository checkout may instead run the CLI as
node scripts/ecc.js memory ..., but MCP configurations that name
ecc-memory-mcp still require that binary on PATH.
When To Use
- Save durable context that another agent or later session will need.
- Hand work from Claude to Codex, Hermes to Claude, or any other harness pair.
- Resume a task and search for prior decisions, facts, lessons, or handoffs.
- Diagnose malformed memories, broken links, duplicate IDs, or skipped symbolic links.
Do not use the vault as a task tracker, secret store, policy engine, or substitute for governed project documentation.
