SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the critical challenge of managing and preserving information within AI agent systems, preventing data loss and ensuring consistent knowledge recall.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Memory Architecture: Understands and implements a four-layer memory model (Bootstrap, Daily Logs, Session Transcript, Retrieval Index).
  • Data Persistence: Guides users on setting up persistent storage for agent knowledge, including MEMORY.md and daily logs.
  • Failure Mode Mitigation: Provides strategies to prevent data loss due to agents not storing information, compaction errors, or pruning.
  • Shared Memory: Details patterns for enabling cross-agent knowledge sharing through team-memory/ directories and SHARED_KNOWLEDGE.json.
  • Use Case: An AI agent needs to remember customer preferences and past interactions across multiple sessions. This Skill helps configure the agent's memory layers to store this information reliably, even when dealing with large amounts of data or system updates.

Quick Start

Use the openclaw-memory skill to set up memory for a new agent, including bootstrap files and daily logs.

Frequently Asked Questions about openclaw-memory

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I prevent AI agent memory loss during context compaction or pruning?

Prevent AI agent memory loss during compaction by implementing a four-layer architecture with bootstrap files, daily logs, session transcripts, and retrieval indexes to maintain persistent knowledge storage.

What is the best way to set up shared memory across multiple AI agents?

Set up shared memory across multiple AI agents by configuring team-memory directories and SHARED_KNOWLEDGE.json files, enabling reliable cross-agent knowledge sharing and consistent recall across different sessions.

How does SCRIBE compression work for AI agent data persistence?

SCRIBE compression for AI agent data persistence works by optimizing stored knowledge in file-based memory layers, reducing the storage footprint while maintaining reliable retrieval for multi-agent systems.

Do I need access control configuration to manage team-memory directories?

Yes, you need access control configuration to manage team-memory directories, ensuring proper permissions for shared knowledge stores and preventing unauthorized modifications to system-wide agent memory.

Why does my AI agent forget customer preferences across multiple sessions?

Your AI agent forgets customer preferences across sessions because it lacks proper memory architecture, requiring daily logs and retrieval indexes to reliably store and recall past interaction data.
