SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The PARA memory system provides a durable, structured way to store, retrieve, and recall knowledge across sessions by organizing information into projects, areas, resources, and archives, ensuring context is preserved beyond individual conversations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Three memory layers: Knowledge graph under $AGENT_HOME/life/ with summary.md and items.yaml; Daily notes for raw timeline; Tacit knowledge about user patterns for recall and planning.
  • Planning and weekly synthesis: memory planning files and periodic synthesis to keep context fresh; recall via qmd to surface relevant facts.
  • On-disk persistence: memory survives restarts and supports retrieval with semantic search and vector/reranking.

Quick Start

Create a new entity with a fact and update the daily notes to reflect current context using PARA.

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I organize persistent memory across sessions using the PARA method?

To organize persistent memory across sessions using the PARA method, this Skill structures information into projects, areas, resources, and archives. It saves context as YAML entity facts and daily notes on disk, ensuring knowledge survives restarts.

What is the best way to maintain knowledge context for long-running projects?

The best way to maintain knowledge context for long-running projects is using a structured knowledge graph with periodic synthesis. This Skill generates memory planning files and weekly summaries to keep context fresh and surface relevant facts for ongoing recall.

Can I use file-based memory management to recall past learning sessions?

Yes, you can use file-based memory management to recall past learning sessions. It persists tacit knowledge and daily notes under a life directory, allowing you to retrieve historical context via semantic search and reranking workflows.

How does a knowledge graph store entity facts for personal knowledge management?

A knowledge graph stores entity facts for personal knowledge management by writing structured YAML files and summary markdown. This Skill maps relationships across projects and resources, enabling durable retrieval of specific facts when planning future tasks.

Does on-disk memory persist through agent restarts for ongoing learning?

On-disk memory does persist through agent restarts for ongoing learning. This Skill writes memory layers directly to the file system, ensuring your structured knowledge graph and daily notes remain intact and retrievable across multiple sessions.

When should I use a structured memory layer instead of basic chat history?

You should use a structured memory layer instead of basic chat history when you need durable, file-based knowledge management for long-running projects. It provides structured layering and periodic synthesis, overcoming the context loss of standard chat logs.
