SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the setup of @tobilu/qmd for semantic search over mnemonic memories, ensuring your memories are easily searchable by meaning.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Indexing: Registers memory collections and builds search indexes.
  • Embedding Generation: Creates vector embeddings for semantic search.
  • Prerequisite Checks: Verifies Node.js and qmd CLI installation.
  • Use Case: After installing mnemonic, run this skill once to prepare your system for advanced semantic search capabilities, allowing you to find memories based on conceptual queries rather than just keywords.

Quick Start

Run the automated setup script to configure qmd for mnemonic memories.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up semantic search indexing for mnemonic memories?

Setting up semantic search for mnemonic involves running an automated script that configures the qmd CLI to register memory collections, build search indexes, and generate vector embeddings.

What does semantic search do for my mnemonic memory system?

Semantic search in the mnemonic memory system creates vector embeddings, enabling you to retrieve memories based on conceptual queries and meaning rather than relying solely on exact keyword matches.

Do I need Node.js to configure qmd for semantic search?

Yes, configuring qmd for semantic search requires Node.js version 22 or higher. The setup script includes prerequisite checks to verify both Node.js and the qmd CLI are globally installed.

Can the qmd setup script discover memory roots across different project directories?

Yes, the qmd setup script supports dynamic discovery of memory roots across different organizational structures and project-specific directories to ensure all memories are properly indexed.

Why does qmd semantic search setup fail if qmd is not globally installed?

qmd semantic search setup fails without a global qmd installation because the configuration script depends on the qmd CLI to register collections, build indexes, and generate vector embeddings.
