🚀 QUICK START

bash

# Install the skill
clawhub install asabove/qmd-memory

# Run setup (installs QMD, configures collections)
openclaw skill run qmd-memory setup

# That's it. Your memory is now supercharged.

WHAT YOU GET

1. Automatic Collection Setup

Based on your workspace structure, we create optimized collections:

text

✓ workspace     — Core agent files (MEMORY.md, SOUL.md, etc.)
✓ daily-logs    — memory/*.md daily logs
✓ intelligence  — intelligence/*.md (if exists)
✓ projects      — projects/**/*.md (if exists)
✓ documents     — Any additional doc folders you specify

2. Smart Context Descriptions

We add context to each collection so QMD understands what's where:

text

qmd://workspace    → "Agent identity and configuration files"
qmd://daily-logs   → "Daily work logs and session history"
qmd://intelligence → "Analysis, research, and reference documents"

3. Pre-configured Cron Jobs

bash

# Auto-update index (nightly at 3am)
0 3 * * * qmd update && qmd embed

# Keep your memory fresh without thinking about it

4. OpenClaw Integration

Memory search now uses QMD automatically:

• memory_search → routes to QMD hybrid search
• memory_get → retrieves from QMD collections
• Results include collection context

5. Multi-Agent MCP Server (Optional)

bash

# Start shared memory server
openclaw skill run qmd-memory serve

# All your agents can now query collective memory
# Forge, Thoth, Axis — shared knowledge base

---

📊 SEARCH MODES

Mode	Command	Best For
Keyword	qmd search "query"	Exact matches, fast
Semantic	qmd vsearch "query"	Conceptual similarity
Hybrid	qmd query "query"	Best quality (recommended)

Example Queries

bash

# Find exact mentions
qmd search "Charlene" -n 5

# Find conceptually related content
qmd vsearch "how should we handle customer complaints"

# Best quality — expansion + reranking
qmd query "what decisions did we make about pricing strategy"

# Search specific collection
qmd search "API keys" -c workspace
