What We're Launching Today
The Awareness Memory Market is now live.
It's a place where developers can publish, discover, and install pre-built memory configurations — including a new type we're calling Skills.
Here's what that means in practice.
Memory Market: The Basics
The Memory Market is a catalog of community-built and team-built configurations that give AI tools specialized knowledge.
You can browse the market at awareness.market/market.
What you'll find there
Framework templates — Pre-configured memory sets for specific tech stacks. Install the "Next.js 16 App Router" template and your AI immediately knows the conventions, common patterns, and gotchas for that stack.
Domain knowledge packs — Memory sets for specific domains: startup legal fundamentals, product management frameworks, technical writing style guides.
Skills — A new memory type that configures AI behavior, not just knowledge. More on this below.
Introducing Skills
A Skill is a memory that teaches your AI how to do something, not just what to know.
Regular memories answer questions like:
- "What's our database schema?"
- "What naming conventions do we use?"
Skills answer questions like:
- "How should I review a PR?"
- "How should I write a commit message for this project?"
- "What's the process for creating a new API endpoint here?"
How Skills work
When you install a Skill from the Market, it adds a behavioral layer to your AI. The Skill defines:
- Trigger conditions — when should this behavior activate?
- Procedure — step-by-step instructions the AI follows
- Output format — what does success look like?
For example, the "Code Review Checklist" Skill triggers whenever you ask your AI to review code. It walks through security, performance, readability, and test coverage — in the specific order your team cares about.
Skills vs. System Prompts
The key difference: Skills are persistent and shareable.
A system prompt lives in your AI tool's settings. When you switch tools or onboard a new team member, it's gone.
A Skill lives in Awareness. Every AI tool you connect via MCP has access to the same Skills. New team member? They install your organization's Skills in 30 seconds.

How to Publish Your Own

We review all submissions within 48 hours. Published memories appear in the market immediately after approval.
Pricing
The Memory Market is free to browse and install on all plans, including the free tier.
Publishing is also free. We may introduce promoted listings in the future, but community contributions will always be free to publish.
What's Coming Next
A few things we're actively building:
Versioning — Memory and Skill authors will be able to push updates, and installers will be notified of changes.
Collections — Bundle multiple memories and Skills into an installable pack. Install "Full-Stack SaaS Starter" and get 12 related memories at once.
Usage analytics — Authors will be able to see how many installations their memories have and how often they're recalled.
Enterprise private marketplace — Organizations on Enterprise plans will get a private market for internal-only memory sharing.
Feedback
The Memory Market is new. We expect rough edges.
If you find a memory that doesn't work as described, use the "Report" button on the listing page. If you have ideas for categories or types of content you'd like to see, join our Discord and tell us.
We're building this with the community — your feedback shapes what it becomes.
