Interview you into a durable personal MEMORY.md — your decision rules, patterns, past failures, and preferences — that any AI can read to help you better, with privacy guardrails built in. Use when asked to build my memory file, help my AI remember me, create a MEMORY.md, or set up context about myself. Produces a structured personal-context file drawn out through good questions (how you decide, what you keep repeating, what you don't want to repeat), organized for an AI to use — while explicitly refusing to store sensitive data like credentials, financial, health, or others' personal info.

# Build My Memory File

The single biggest upgrade to working with AI isn't a better prompt — it's a `MEMORY.md` that captures how *you* work, so you stop re-explaining yourself every session. This interviews you into one: your decision criteria, recurring patterns, past mistakes worth not repeating, and preferences — organized so any AI can read it and help you better. And it has a hard privacy line: no credentials, no financial, health, or other people's personal data.

> **Not quite this?** Use `memory-file-maintenance` when you already have a memory file that has drifted and needs pruning.

## What This Skill Produces

- **A structured MEMORY.md** — your durable personal context, in sections an AI can use
- **Your decision rules** — how you actually make choices, your criteria, your non-negotiables
- **Your patterns** — the things you keep doing (good and bad), your recurring instructions and preferences
- **Your "don't repeat these"** — past failures and lessons worth remembering
- **Working preferences** — how you like things done, communicated, and delivered
- **A privacy firewall** — an explicit list of what NOT to store, and it refuses to include it
