SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill provides a structured approach to building a persistent, decodable memory graph for an AI agent, enabling long-term collaboration across work and life.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Two-tier memory architecture using YAML frontmatter and Obsidian-style wiki-links for reliable decoding and cross-linking.
  • Unified memory map across work and life domains, with CLAUDE.md as a hot cache and memory/ for long-term storage.
  • Supports a deterministic preview-before-write workflow to guard changes as described by the Memory README.

Quick Start

Initialize memory management by bootstrapping CLAUDE.md and the memory tree; then begin adding memory entities to memory/ as you journal and cross-link.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build long-term memory for an AI agent across work and personal domains?

You can build long-term AI agent memory by organizing a two-tier architecture using CLAUDE.md as a hot cache and a memory/ directory for persistent storage. This enables reliable cross-domain knowledge retention and collaborative context retrieval.

How do I structure AI agent memory using YAML frontmatter and wiki-links?

Structure AI agent memory by applying YAML frontmatter to encode metadata and Obsidian-style wiki-links to connect nodes. This two-tier approach creates a decodable memory graph that supports reliable lookup and cross-referencing.

Can I use Obsidian-style wiki-links to build a knowledge graph for agent memory?

Yes, Obsidian-style wiki-links are supported to cross-link memory entities within the memory/ store. Combined with YAML frontmatter, they form a decodable memory graph that enables reliable long-term AI collaboration and context retrieval.

What is the best way to safely update an AI agent's memory store without data loss?

The safest way to update an AI memory store is using a deterministic preview-before-write workflow. This approach enforces an immutable journal log and frontmatter-driven metadata, ensuring all memory growth is auditable and reversible.

Does memory management require a specific environment setup to store agent memory?

Memory management requires bootstrapping a CLAUDE.md file and a memory/ directory tree. You initialize this environment to begin adding memory entities, journaling, and cross-linking data for long-term AI collaboration.

Why use a preview-before-write workflow for AI agent memory journaling?

A preview-before-write workflow guards memory changes by enforcing an immutable journal log and strict metadata validation. This ensures safe, auditable memory growth and prevents unauthorized modifications to the long-term memory graph.
