SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

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

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides AI agents with persistent memory across sessions, ensuring continuity of context, knowledge, and past decisions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Persistent Storage: Stores information as plain Markdown files, accessible locally.
  • Session Continuity: Remembers facts, goals, and past interactions between AI sessions.
  • Knowledge Management: Organizes information into facts, session logs, and long-term summaries.
  • Use Case: An AI assistant working on a complex coding project can recall previous architectural decisions, specific code snippets it was asked to remember, and the status of ongoing tasks from prior conversations.

Quick Start

Use the cognos-memory skill to remember the fact that the project's main database is PostgreSQL.

FAQPage Schema
How do I give an AI agent persistent memory across sessions?

You can give an AI agent persistent memory across sessions by storing facts and session logs as local Markdown files. This approach maintains context and past decisions without relying on external APIs.

What is the best way to manage AI knowledge locally without external APIs?

The best way to manage AI knowledge locally without external APIs is using a filesystem-based approach that stores information as plain Markdown. This ensures data privacy while organizing facts and long-term summaries.

Can I store AI context as Markdown files on my local filesystem?

Yes, you can store AI context entirely as Markdown files on your local filesystem. This method allows agents to remember facts, recall information via queries, and consolidate session logs into long-term summaries.

How do AI agents recall past decisions from previous conversations?

AI agents recall past decisions by retrieving stored information from local Markdown files. They query these files to access previously recorded facts, architectural decisions, and ongoing task statuses from prior sessions.

Does local filesystem AI memory require any external dependencies?

No, local filesystem AI memory does not require external dependencies for core memory functions. It operates entirely locally, storing and recalling information as Markdown files to ensure data privacy.

How to consolidate AI session logs into long-term summaries?

To consolidate AI session logs into long-term summaries, the memory system processes and organizes stored Markdown files. It transforms individual session records into persistent knowledge for future context retrieval.
