Capability Guide

NeoCode has several related capabilities: memory, AGENTS.md, Skills, and MCP. They solve different problems.

Quick choice

What you need	Use
Personal long-term preference	Memory
Project-level rules	AGENTS.md
Workflow for the current task	Skills
Real external tools	MCP

Memory

Memory stores personal preferences or stable facts across sessions.

/remember I prefer powershell
/remember The project test command is go test ./...

Do not store secrets or one-off instructions.

AGENTS.md

AGENTS.md stores project rules that belong with the repository.

# Project Rules

- Keep Chinese docs in Chinese
- Run `go test ./...` after Go changes
- Do not write API keys to config files

Skills

Skills shape how the current task should be handled.

/skills
/skill use go-review
/skill active
/skill off go-review

They do not add tools or bypass approvals.

MCP

MCP connects real external tools, such as internal document search, issue lookup, read-only database queries, or team automation.

If you only need a workflow instruction, use Skills instead. Use MCP when the agent must call an external capability.
