SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the issue of AI agents losing their identity and memory with each new session, providing a solution for persistent memory and identity management.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Persistent Identity: Stores and manages identity information (IDENTITY.md, SOUL.md) for AI agents.
  • Memory Management: Organizes and curates long-term memories (MEMORY.md) and daily logs (memory/*.md).
  • Backup and Restore: Ensures continuity of AI agents by backing up and restoring their workspace.
  • Use Case: An AI assistant that interacts with users over multiple sessions can use this Skill to remember its identity, history, and learnings.

Quick Start

Use the 'amnesia setup' command to initialize your agent's memory and identity files.

Frequently Asked Questions about amnesia

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I maintain persistent identity for AI agents across multiple sessions?▼

Maintain persistent identity for AI agents by storing identity information in structured files like IDENTITY.md and SOUL.md. This approach ensures the agent retains its persona and configured characteristics across multiple new sessions.

What is the best way to manage long-term memory for an AI assistant?▼

Manage long-term AI memory by organizing and curating structured files such as MEMORY.md and daily logs. This file-based approach provides a reliable repository for storing agent history and past learnings for future retrieval.

How do I backup and restore an AI agent's workspace and memory files?▼

Backup and restore an AI agent workspace through automated script execution and file I/O operations. This functionality ensures memory and identity files are safely preserved and can be restored to maintain full agent continuity.

Does setting up persistent AI memory require any external dependencies?▼

Setting up persistent AI memory requires no external dependencies. The system relies entirely on local file I/O operations and script execution to initialize and manage your agent identity and memory files.

Why does my AI agent lose its memory and identity with each new session?▼

AI agents lose memory and identity with each new session because they lack persistent storage by default. Implementing a file-based memory management system with backup and restore capabilities directly solves this continuity issue.
