FAQPage Schema
How do I enable persistent cross-agent memory for Obsidian vaults?

To enable persistent cross-agent memory, archive agent insights into a local Obsidian vault using an append-only three-layer structure. This allows any agent to bootstrap from the Index.md file and access shared knowledge.

What is the append-only three-layer memory model for knowledge management?

The three-layer memory model organizes persistent knowledge into Index, Summary, and Details files. This append-only design ensures agents never overwrite or lose history when archiving ongoing work like debugging sessions.

How do I archive sprint retros and debugging sessions across multiple agents?

Archive sprint retros by running the script with your OBSIDIAN_VAULT path set. This saves the topic, conclusion, outcomes, analysis, and todos into the vault using collision-safe detail filenames and frontmatter updates.

Can I use any agent to read knowledge from a shared Obsidian vault?

Yes, any agent can read from a shared Obsidian vault. The cross-agent compatibility feature allows different agents to bootstrap their context from the centrally located Index.md file within the vault.

How do I configure templates and vault structure for agent knowledge management?

You can configure templates and vault structure by customizing the Skill's settings. This allows teams to tailor the three-layer memory organization and frontmatter updates to fit specific ongoing knowledge work workflows.

Does the append-only design prevent overwriting historical knowledge in Obsidian?

Yes, the append-only design prevents overwriting historical knowledge. It continuously adds new insights to the three-layer structure without losing previous history, ensuring a complete retrospective timeline.
