AI Memory System

Automatically sets up a 3-layer memory system with long-term MEMORY.md, daily notes, and nightly fact extraction cron job.

AI Memory System Skill

Auto-setup for the 3-layer OpenClaw memory architecture

What It Does

Sets up the complete 3-layer memory system from the Zero-Human Company playbook:

• MEMORY.md (tacit knowledge and preferences)
• Daily notes (memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md)
• Nightly extraction cron job

Setup Instructions

After installing, tell your AI: "Set up the memory system."

Your AI will:

1. Create MEMORY.md with a template
2. Create the memory/ directory
3. Set up a nightly extraction cron at 11pm your timezone
4. Create today's first daily note entry

Nightly Extraction Cron

bash

openclaw cron add \
  --name "nightly-extraction" \
  --cron "0 23 * * *" \
  --tz "[YOUR_TIMEZONE]" \
  --session isolated \
  --message "Review today's conversations. Extract durable facts (relationships, decisions, status changes, milestones). Skip small talk. Update memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md with timeline. Update MEMORY.md with new patterns or preferences." \
  --announce

Memory Rules

1. If it matters, WRITE IT DOWN. Mental notes don't survive sessions.
2. Never delete facts — supersede them instead.
3. Update MEMORY.md when you notice new patterns about your user.
4. Daily notes are raw logs. MEMORY.md is curated wisdom.
5. Review and clean MEMORY.md weekly.
