每日记忆管家

Auto-capture hourly session highlights and update daily memory files. Keeps long-term memory continuous without manual recording. Triggered by cron or manual "remember this".

Auto Memory Keeper

Overview

Automatically extract session content and update daily memory files to maintain long-term memory continuity.

Two modes:

• Passive mode: Cron job runs hourly (automatic)
• Active mode: Manual trigger by user ("remember this", "log today")

How It Works

Triggers

1. Auto-trigger: Cron job runs every hour
2. Manual trigger: User says "remember this", "log today", "update memory"

Workflow

Step 1: Check Environment

bash

DATE=$(date +%Y-%m-%d)
MEMORY_FILE=~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/${DATE}.md

if [ ! -f "$MEMORY_FILE" ]; then
  echo "# ${DATE} Log\n\n## Today's Items\n\n- " > "$MEMORY_FILE"
fi

Step 2: Fetch Recent Sessions

python

# Use sessions_list to get active sessions in last 60 minutes
# Use sessions_history to get session details

Step 3: Noise Filtering

Skip these message types:

• Simple greetings ("hi", "hello", "hey")
• Acknowledgments ("thanks", "ok", "sure", "yes")
• Single word responses
• Questions without context
• HEARTBEAT_OK messages
• System messages

Step 4: Extract Key Info

From filtered messages, extract:

Type	Keywords	Format
Decision	"decided", "chose", "adopted"	- {time} {decision}
Task	new feature, new config, new task	- {time} {task description}
Progress	"completed", "finished", "installed"	- {time} completed {task}
Issue	error, bug, failed	- {time} issue: {description}
Conclusion	summary, conclusion, finding	- {time} {conclusion}

Step 5: Smart Deduplication

Check for duplicates before recording:

python

# Read current file content
# If similar content exists (>80% similarity), skip
# Otherwise append

Step 6: Update Memory File

Format:

markdown

## Today's Items

- {time} {item description}
- {time} {item description}
...

Examples

Input (user message):

"installed openclaw-tavily-search, score 3.639"

Stored:

markdown

- 21:47 installed openclaw-tavily-search skill (score 3.639)

Input (user message):

"auto-extract session content to memory file every hour"

Stored:

markdown

- 21:50 created auto-memory-keeper skill for hourly auto memory extraction

Configuration

Configurable via config.json:

json

{
  "memory_dir": "~/.openclaw/workspace/memory",
  "interval_hours": 1,
  "active_minutes": 60,
  "categories": ["Decision", "Task", "Progress", "Issue", "Conclusion"],
  "skip_patterns": ["^hi", "^hello", "^thanks", "^ok"],
  "dedup_threshold": 0.8
}

Quality Rules

1. Concise - One sentence per item
2. Timestamp - Always include time
3. Dedupe - Avoid duplicate entries
4. Categorize - Classify by type
5. Skip noise - Don't record trivial messages

FAQ

Q: How to trigger manually? A: Say "remember this", "log today", or "update memory"

Q: Where is cron configured? A: Use cron job add command, see example in SKILL.md

Q: Where are memory files stored? A: ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md

Testing

Periodically review memory files and adjust skip_patterns for better filtering.
