cognee-recall

by Cognee

Use when querying cognee memory with recall() (or search()) — picking a search type, understanding auto-routing, scoping to datasets, node sets or sessions, getting context or citations instead of an answer, reading the results, or debugging empty or unexpected results.

cognee-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-integrationsUse when the user wants to connect cognee to external services — switching LLM or embedding providers (OpenAI, Azure, Gemini, Anthropic, Ollama, OpenRouter), changing databases (Postgres, PGVector, Neo4j, Neptune, Turso), S3 storage, or the MCP server for IDE integration.0 installscognee-communityUse when the user needs something that ships outside cognee core — community database adapters (Qdrant, Milvus, Weaviate, Redis, Pinecone, FalkorDB, Memgraph, DuckDB, NetworkX, …), data-source connectors (Slack, Gmail, Notion, Confluence, Google Drive), custom tasks/pipelines/retrievers (Exa, ScrapeGraph, codify), Keywords AI observability — or wants to contribute a package to the cognee-community repo.0 installscognee-migrationsUse when dealing with cognee database migrations — understanding when they run automatically, checking or repairing migration state with cognee-cli upgrade/downgrade/stamp/current, a write blocked by a failed migration, authoring a new Alembic (relational schema) revision or a graph/vector data migration, or moving data between systems (relational DB import, memory export/import).0 installscognee-permissionsUse when working with cognee's users, permissions, and multi-tenancy — creating users, tenants and roles, sharing datasets (read/write/delete/share grants), acting as a specific user in the SDK or authenticating over HTTP (login, API keys), turning access control on or off, debugging PermissionDeniedError or missing datasets, or understanding where permissions are enforced and how datasets are isolated.0 installscognee-dockerUse when the user wants to run cognee with Docker or docker compose — trying it out from the prebuilt image, starting the API server in a container, or bringing up the full stack (UI, MCP, Postgres, Neo4j) with compose profiles.0 installs

cognee-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, already_completed or lock_held, or tuning the IMPROVE_* settings.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-ingestionUse 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, temporal graphs, or when remember() raises on a keyword argument.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-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 extraction/enrichment over the existing graph with memify, checking pipeline run status, or debugging how data flows between tasks (batch_size, data_per_batch, ctx, Drop, enriches).0 installs

Frequently asked questions about cognee-recall

What does the cognee-recall skill do?

Use when querying cognee memory with recall() (or search()) — picking a search type, understanding auto-routing, scoping to datasets, node sets or sessions, getting context or citations instead of an answer, reading the results, or debugging empty or unexpected results. 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-recall skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install cognee-cognee-recall` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/cognee-cognee-recall/ 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-recall work with?

cognee-recall 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-recall 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-recall after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/cognee-cognee-recall` (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-recall 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.
