company-brain-follow-up-agentTurn your latest Granola call into next steps (owner, team, due date, and the Linear issue that already tracks each one) and post them to Slack, using cognee memory of your calls, Linear issues and Gmail inbox. Use when someone asks for the next steps or action items of their latest call. Runs locally; reads Gmail read-only; posts to Slack only when Slack is set up.0 installscognee-serverUse when the user wants to run the cognee API server (and optional UI) on their own machine — starting it, checking it's healthy, connecting the SDK or other clients to it, and choosing the right auth posture.0 installscognee-performanceUse when cognee is slow, expensive, or hitting rate limits — speeding up or throttling ingestion (remember/cognify batching, chunk size, LLM and embedding rate limits, per-stage models), cutting read latency, estimating cost before ingesting, running work in the background, or planning how to scale a deployment.0 installscognee-custom-graph-modelsUse when defining the shape of cognee's knowledge graph with graph_model= — writing DataPoint node classes, choosing identity and index fields so nodes merge and are searchable, declaring typed Edge fields and FromIdentity references, building a model from a JSON schema, or debugging duplicated nodes, missing edges, or InvalidReferenceTypeError.0 installscognee-improve-sessionsUse when working with cognee's session memory or improve() — storing conversation turns, agent traces and feedback with session_id, bridging sessions into the permanent graph, reading an ImproveResult, understanding why an improve stage was skipped or already_completed, or tuning the IMPROVE_* settings.0 installsself-hosted-companionChat with a companion that knows your notes folder (a journal, an Obsidian vault, any .md or .txt files) and every earlier chat, using cognee memory with local databases. Use when someone wants to ask questions about their own notes, or to talk with a companion that remembers past conversations. Runs locally; reads the notes folder, writes only to cognee's memory.0 installs

Pass 1 of the docstring pilot; a separate critic verifies the patch and writes the claim ledger.0 installsgoogle-workspace-memoryRemember a user's Google Calendar, Gmail and Drive in one cognee memory and answer questions across them, by default preparing their client meetings of the coming week (which orders are late or at risk, why, and what to say). Use when someone asks to connect, ingest or sync their Google Workspace, or asks a question that needs their calendar, email and Drive together. Runs locally; reads Google read-only.0 installsmultiagent-memory-setupImport the user's own Claude Code and/or Codex session history (the prompts they typed and the agents' answers) into one cognee dataset, then answer questions over it, across every agent and per agent. Use when someone wants to load, import or backfill their previous coding-agent sessions into cognee, give several coding agents one shared memory of past work, or ask what their earlier sessions were about. Runs locally; reads ~/.claude and ~/.codex read-only, writes only to cognee's memory.0 installscognee-forgetUse when removing data from cognee memory with forget() in the SDK, HTTP API, or CLI — finding which dataset and document hold the content to delete (listing datasets and data items, reading raw content), choosing between deleting one document, a whole dataset, or only the graph/vector memory, and doing it safely.0 installscognee-custom-pipelinesUse when building your own cognee processing — writing custom tasks, chaining them into a pipeline with run_custom_pipeline or the lightweight run_pipeline (from cognee.pipelines import run_pipeline), storing custom DataPoints with add_data_points, running custom enrichment over the existing graph, checking pipeline run status, or debugging how data flows between tasks (batch_size, data_per_batch, ctx, Drop, enriches).0 installsdocstring-criticReview a docstring-author patch in the Cognee pilot. Independently verify truthfulness and promotional tone, preserve supported positive framing, and write the claim ledger. Pass 2; corrects claims without expanding coverage.0 installs

Frequently asked questions about cognee-ingestion

What does the cognee-ingestion skill do?

Use when putting data into cognee memory with remember() — choosing inputs (text, files, folders, URLs, repos, databases), datasets and node_sets, loaders, ontologies, the graph extractor (LLM or GLiNER), chunking, dry-run cost estimates, or when remember() raises on a keyword argument. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.

How do I install the cognee-ingestion skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install cognee-cognee-ingestion` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/cognee-cognee-ingestion/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does cognee-ingestion work with?

cognee-ingestion runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the cognee-ingestion skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use cognee-ingestion after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/cognee-cognee-ingestion` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the cognee-ingestion skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
