Session Memory (Workspace)
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.
Overview
This skill appears to do what it says, but it deliberately reads local OpenClaw chat logs and writes selected history into persistent memory for future recall.
Install this only if you want OpenClaw to search and remember past local conversations. Use specific dates and queries, avoid summarizing sensitive sessions, and review or redact the generated memory files when needed.
Findings (2)
Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
Private past chats may become part of the agent’s persistent recall and may influence future responses.
The skill intentionally moves past conversation content into persistent memory that can be retrieved and used in later answers.
Writes a session summary for the given date into `memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md` ... Memory citations and RAG will then include that day’s chat.
Run it only for dates you want remembered, and review or redact the generated memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md files if the conversations included sensitive information.
If a daily memory file already contains manual notes after a Session summary section, rerunning the script could remove those trailing notes.
The script writes to the daily memory file and replaces an existing Session summary section through the end of the file, which is expected for updating memory but can overwrite content placed after that heading.
finalContent = existing.replace(/\n## Session summary\n[\s\S]*/i, '\n' + newSection); ... fs.writeFileSync(memoryFile, finalContent, 'utf-8');
Keep backups or review the daily memory file after running the skill, especially if you manually edit memory files.
