BeastXA Memory Pro

Production-grade memory system for OpenClaw agents. Auto-organizes notes into topic files, prevents context loss during compaction, and runs daily/weekly maintenance crons. Zero external dependencies — pure local Markdown files. Install and forget. Use when: agent keeps forgetting context, MEMORY.md is too large, notes are disorganized, or you want automatic memory maintenance without manual effort.

Stop losing context. Start remembering everything.

What It Does

1. Structured Session Notes — auto-maintained session-notes.md captures your current work state
2. Smart Memory Split — breaks large MEMORY.md into topic files with an index
3. Auto Maintenance — daily cleanup + weekly deep organization via cron
4. Anti-Amnesia — enhanced compaction saves critical context before compression

Quick Start

# Install
clawhub install beastxa-memory-pro

# Run setup (interactive, takes ~30 seconds)
bash scripts/install.sh

That's it. Everything else is automatic.

How It Works

Three-Layer Memory

Layer	File	Purpose	Update Frequency
Session	session-notes.md	Current work state	Every compaction
Daily	YYYY-MM-DD.md	Raw daily log	Every significant event
Topics	topics/*.md	Long-term organized memory	Daily cron

Anti-Amnesia System

Before each context compaction:

1. Saves current task, recent decisions, errors, and next steps
2. Writes to both session-notes.md and daily log
3. After compaction, agent reads session-notes and resumes seamlessly

Auto Maintenance Crons

• Daily (23:30) — extracts key decisions and lessons from today's log into topic files
• Weekly (Sunday 23:00) — deduplicates, merges, trims topic files; verifies index

Manual Commands

Split an existing MEMORY.md:

python3 scripts/split_memory.py --input MEMORY.md --output memory/topics/

• Reads your MEMORY.md, detects topic boundaries (## headers)
• Creates one file per topic in memory/topics/
• Generates memory/MEMORY-INDEX.md with pointers
• Original file untouched — zero risk

Verify installation:

bash scripts/verify.sh

Configuration

The install script adds compaction enhancement to your OpenClaw config:

{
  "agents": {
    "defaults": {
      "compaction": {
        "memoryFlush": {
          "enabled": true,
          "prompt": "Pre-compaction memory flush. Store durable memories in memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md..."
        },
        "instructions": "Preserve: user decisions, file paths, errors+fixes, current task, next step..."
      }
    }
  }
}

You can customize the compaction instructions to match your workflow.

FAQ

Will it overwrite my existing MEMORY.md? Never. The split script only reads it. Your original stays intact.

Does it send data anywhere? No. Everything is local Markdown files. No APIs, no cloud, no external services.

Can I use it with other memory skills? Yes. It only creates files and cron jobs — no core modifications.

What if I don't like the topic categories? Edit them freely. They're just Markdown files. The cron will respect your structure.

Requirements

• OpenClaw 2026.3.x or later
• Python 3.8+ (for split script)
• That's it
