Using "ChatCrystal Task Writeback". Use chatcrystal-task-writeback to save this fix

Expected outcome:

Memory created: MCP tool schemas must stay aligned with memory service request shapes; mismatches surface as validation failures before tool execution.

Using "ChatCrystal Task Writeback". Persist this debugging session outcome

Expected outcome:

Memory merged: Added new error signature 'invalid_type' to existing memory about schema validation issues.

Using "ChatCrystal Task Writeback". Document this pattern

Expected outcome:

Memory skipped: Similar pattern already exists in project memory. Task result preserved without duplication.

Security Audit

Safe
v1 • 4/24/2026

Static analysis flagged 32 potential security issues, all of which are false positives. The 'Ruby/shell backtick execution' warnings are caused by Markdown code syntax (inline code with backticks) in the SKILL.md documentation file, not actual shell execution. The 'weak cryptographic algorithm' warnings are scanner errors with no cryptographic code present. This is a documentation-only skill with no executable code, network operations, or command execution capabilities. Safe to publish.

What You Can Build

Debugging Session Capture

After fixing a complex bug, automatically preserve the root cause analysis, error signatures, and resolution for future reference.

Pattern Documentation

When implementing a reusable architectural pattern, capture the design decision and context for team-wide reuse.

Knowledge Base Building

Continuously build a knowledge base of fixes and pitfalls encountered during development for faster future troubleshooting.

Try These Prompts

Basic Memory Capture
Use chatcrystal-task-writeback to save the outcome of this task.
Debugging Session
Use chatcrystal-task-writeback to persist this bug fix. Include error signatures, root cause, and the files that were modified.
Pattern Documentation
Use chatcrystal-task-writeback to document this architectural pattern as a decision record with the implementation context.
Manual Save Flow
Use chatcrystal-task-writeback in manual mode to save this knowledge globally with explicit confirmation.

Best Practices

  • Invoke the skill only after substantive work completes, not during active problem-solving
  • Write concise, durable summaries that remain valuable weeks later
  • Include error signatures and file paths for debugging-related memories
  • Use project scope by default, global scope only for cross-project knowledge
  • Report persistence results accurately (created, merged, skipped) to track knowledge capture

Avoid

  • Calling the skill during active debugging instead of after resolution
  • Writing chatty or temporal summaries that lose value quickly
  • Using manual mode as a silent fallback instead of explicit user-initiated saves
  • Forcing persistence when Core reports the memory should be skipped
  • Instructing runtimes to auto-install ChatCrystal Core as part of skill execution

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I use this skill?
Use this skill after completing substantive work that produced reusable knowledge: a durable fix, a meaningful pitfall, a reusable pattern, or an explicit engineering decision.
What happens if ChatCrystal is not available?
The skill degrades gracefully and emits a structured memory candidate aligned with the write_task_memory payload shape for manual saving later.
What is the difference between auto and manual mode?
Auto mode is for automatic writeback with a stable run key. Manual mode is for explicit user-initiated save flows, never as a silent fallback.
Should I use project or global scope?
Default to project scope for project-specific knowledge. Use global scope only for clearly cross-project knowledge and only in manual mode.
What does it mean when memory is skipped or merged?
ChatCrystal Core analyzes the memory for duplicates and related memories. Skipped means a duplicate exists. Merged means the memory was combined with related knowledge.
Can I use this skill without MCP access?
Yes, the skill will emit a structured memory candidate that you can save manually later, but automatic persistence requires MCP access to write_task_memory.
