# Cognee skill (local recall) ## Triggers - cognee, graph recall, relationship context, cross-artifact recall, MCP cognee-local ## When to use - Relationship recall across indexed Otto files (receipts, precedents, tickets) - Cited context packs before proposing Curation updates ## When not to use - Canon edits (Standards, Practices, charters) — files + Curation only - Letta memory writes — Letta owns runtime memory - Autonomy policy changes — Otto-owned YAML ## Local setup ```sh pip install cognee # venv recommended: ~/.otto/cognee/venv (binary is cognee-cli on 1.1.x) export OTTO_COGNEE_ENABLED=1 ./scripts/cognee-home.sh start ./scripts/cognee-home.sh health ``` MCP template: `config/cognee-mcp.template.json` (HTTP :8001 preferred on cognee 1.1.x; register only when health is ready). ## Autonomy - `cognee.recall`: green (read-only search/recall) - `cognee.capture`: yellow (index ingest — receipt required) - `cognee.delete`: red (explicit approval) Run `autonomy.evaluateAction` before capture or any mutating MCP tool. ## Smoke ```sh export OTTO_COGNEE_ENABLED=1 task smoke:cognee-recall ``` Writes `receipts/cognee/recall/*.json` when Cognee health is `ready` and a capture receipt exists. Never uses `conversation=default`.
