name: inject description: 'Inject relevant knowledge into session context from .agents/ artifacts. Triggers: "inject knowledge", "recall context", SessionStart hook.'
Inject Skill
Typically runs automatically via SessionStart hook.
Inject relevant prior knowledge into the current session.
How It Works
The SessionStart hook runs:
ao inject --apply-decay --format markdown --max-tokens 1000
This searches for relevant knowledge and injects it into context.
Manual Execution
Given /inject [topic]:
Step 1: Search for Relevant Knowledge
With ao CLI:
ao inject --context "<topic>" --format markdown --max-tokens 1000
Without ao CLI, search manually:
# Recent learnings
ls -lt .agents/learnings/ | head -5
# Recent patterns
ls -lt .agents/patterns/ | head -5
# Recent research
ls -lt .agents/research/ | head -5
Step 2: Read Relevant Files
Use the Read tool to load the most relevant artifacts based on topic.
Step 3: Summarize for Context
Present the injected knowledge:
- Key learnings relevant to current work
- Patterns that may apply
- Recent research on related topics
Knowledge Sources
| Source | Location | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Learnings | .agents/learnings/ | High |
| Patterns | .agents/patterns/ | High |
| Research | .agents/research/ | Medium |
| Retros | .agents/retros/ | Medium |
Decay Model
Knowledge relevance decays over time (~17%/week). More recent learnings are weighted higher.
Key Rules
- Runs automatically - usually via hook
- Context-aware - filters by current directory/topic
- Token-budgeted - respects max-tokens limit
- Recency-weighted - newer knowledge prioritized
