βš™οΈ Configuration

Presets

Set a preset in your workspace configuration. Presets provide sensible defaults; individual settings can be overridden.

minimal enables the routing table only. Topics, contacts, and time layers are all disabled.

standard (default) enables the routing table, topics, and contacts. Time layers are disabled.

full enables everything including time layers with distillation schedules. Weekly synthesis defaults to Sunday 2:00 AM, monthly to the 1st of each month at 2:00 AM, yearly to January 1 at 2:00 AM. All times use the configured timezone (default: system timezone). Caveat: if the memory-wiki plugin is enabled, its syntheses/ pages and reports/ dashboards overlap with time-based distillation β€” prefer standard unless you specifically want chronological archives in addition to wiki syntheses. See references/configuration.md for the full JSON format and all individual settings.

Key Settings

  • preset (string, default "standard") β€” base preset: minimal, standard, or full
  • routing_table_max_kb (number, default 3) β€” max size for MEMORY.md in KB
  • topics (bool, default true) β€” enable topic-based working memory files
  • contacts (bool, default true) β€” enable contact files
  • time_layers (bool, default false) β€” enable weekly/monthly/yearly archival layers

  • distillation.monthly.schedule (string, default "0 2 1 * *") β€” cron expression for monthly synthesis
  • distillation.yearly.schedule (string, default "0 2 1 1 *") β€” cron expression for yearly synthesis
