para-memory-files

To organize persistent knowledge across sessions using the PARA method, structure data into YAML and Markdown within a consistent folder hierarchy, creating life/ entities for durable facts and daily notes for raw timelines.

Building a personal knowledge graph with daily notes involves storing durable facts in life/ entities using summary.md and items.yaml, while capturing raw event timelines in memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md files.

Running a weekly synthesis to update PARA memory applies memory decay rules and uses recall via qmd, consolidating daily notes and tacit patterns into your structured knowledge graph.

You can retain tacit knowledge and user habits long-term without deleting old files because the system enforces a non-deletion policy alongside memory decay rules and an atomic fact schema.

Yes, planning and recall workflows require structuring data in YAML and Markdown formats, enforcing an atomic fact schema within a consistent folder hierarchy to manage knowledge decay.

You need to create a new project under life/projects with summary.md and items.yaml when starting a new initiative, allowing the system to persist knowledge and run weekly syntheses.
