Memory Structure Template (dashboards + topics)

Use this skill to set up a memory layout that is easy to retrieve from, audit, and compress.

Template layout

• MEMORY.md (small): preferences + indexes only.
• memory/always_on.md: tiny policy header + topic catalog (with keywords).
• Dashboards / registries:
  • memory/now.md
  • memory/open-loops.md
  • memory/automation.md
• Topics:
  • memory/topics/glossary.md
  • memory/topics/<topic>.md
• Daily logs:
  • memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md

Apply (safe steps)

1. Create the folders/files from references/templates/.
2. Move existing knowledge into topic files without deleting source logs.
3. Keep MEMORY.md as indexes + preferences only.
4. Update the topic catalog in memory/always_on.md as topics evolve.

Templates

Use the files under references/templates/.
