SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

File-based PARA memory helps you store, retrieve, and organize knowledge across sessions so context persists beyond a single conversation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Knowledge graph: structure durable facts in PARA folders with summary.md and items.yaml.
  • Daily notes: capture raw timeline of events for later synthesis and recall.
  • Tacit knowledge: store patterns, preferences, and lessons learned to guide future interactions.
  • Planning and synthesis: support weekly synthesis, planning files, and recall via qmd.

Quick Start

Create your first PARA entity under $AGENT_HOME, populate summary.md and items.yaml, and run weekly synthesis.
