name: memory-master version: 2.6.1 description: "Local memory system with structured indexing and auto-learning. Auto-write, heuristic recall, auto learning when knowledge is insufficient. Compatible with self-improving-agent: auto-records skill completions and errors to knowledge base." author: 李哲龙 tags: [memory, recall, indexing, context]
🧠 Memory Master — The Precision Memory System
*Transform your AI agent from forgetful to photographic.*
The Problem
Most AI agents suffer from memory amnesia:
You deserve better.
The Solution: Memory Master v1.2.4
A precision-targeted memory architecture with optional network learning capability.
✨ Key Features
| Feature | Description | |---------|-------------| | 📝 Structured Memory | "Cause → Change → Todo" format for every entry | | 🔄 Auto Index Sync | Write once, index updates automatically | | 🎯 Zero Token Waste | Read only what you need, nothing more | | ⚡ Heuristic Recall | Proactively finds relevant memories when context is missing | | 🧠 Auto Learning | When local knowledge is insufficient, automatically search web to learn and update knowledge base | | 🔓 Full Control | All files visible/editable/deletable. No auto network calls. |
The Memory Format
Daily Memory: memory/daily/YYYY-MM-DD.md
Format:
## [日期] 主题
因:原因/背景
改:做了什么、改了什么
待:待办/后续
Example:
## [2026-03-03] 记忆系统升级
因:原记忆目录混乱,查找困难
改:目录调整为 daily/ + knowledge/,上传 v1.1.0
待:检查 ClawHub 描述
Why this format?
The Index Format
Index: memory/daily-index.md
Format:
# 记忆索引主题名 → daily/日期.md,日期.md
Example:
# 记忆索引记忆系统升级 → daily/2026-03-03.md
飞书配置 → daily/2026-03-02.md,daily/2026-03-03.md
电商网站 → daily/2026-03-02.md
Rules:
Heuristic Recall Protocol
When to Trigger Recall
DON'T wait for user to say "yesterday" or "remember"
Trigger recall when: 1. User mentions a topic you don't have context for 2. Current conversation references something past 3. You feel "I'm not sure I have this information" 4. User asks about "that", "the project", "the skill"
Recall Flow
用户问题 → 发现上下文缺失 → 读 index 定位主题 → 读取记忆文件 → 恢复上下文 → 回答
Example:
User: "那个 skill 你觉得还有什么要改的吗?"1. 思考:我知道用户指哪个 skill 吗?→ 不知道,上下文没有
2. 读 index → 找到"记忆系统升级 → daily/2026-03-03.md"
3. 读取文件 → 恢复记忆
4. 回答:"根据昨天记录,我们..."
Key Principle
"When you realize you don't know, go check the index."
Knowledge Base System
Knowledge Structure
memory/knowledge/
├── knowledge-index.md
└── *.md (knowledge entries)
Knowledge Index: memory/knowledge-index.md
极简格式 - 关键字列表:
# 知识库索引clawhub
oauth
react
When to Read Knowledge Base
启发式:当前上下文没有相关信息时才读
1. 用户有要求 → 按用户要求执行 2. 用户没要求 → 检查上下文有没有规则 3. 上下文没有 → 搜索知识库索引 4. 找到对应项 → 读取知识库文件执行
Problem Solving Flow
用户问题 → 上下文有?→ 有:直接解决 / 无:搜索引 → 有知识?→ 有:解决 / 无:自动网络搜索学习 → 写知识库 → 更新索引 → 解决问题
Example:
User: "怎么上传 skill 到 ClawHub?"1. 上下文有 clawhub 信息?→ 有(刚学过)→ 直接回答
2. 不用读知识库
User: "怎么实现 OAuth?"1. 上下文有 OAuth 信息?→ 没有
2. 搜 knowledge-index → 没有 OAuth
3. 告知用户:"我还不会,先去查一下"
4. 网络搜索学习
5. 写入 knowledge/oauth.md
6. 更新 knowledge-index
7. 开始和用户沟通解决方案
Write Flow
When to Write
Write immediately after: 1. Discussion reaches a conclusion 2. Decision is made 3. Action item is assigned 4. Something important happens 5. Learned something new (check before every response)
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Auto-Trigger Write
DO NOT wait for user to remind you!
Before every response, quickly check: "Did I learn anything new in this conversation?" If yes, write it.
Write IMMEDIATELY when any of the above happens. This is NOT optional.
Skill Event Triggers (Auto-Record)
When a skill completes or errors, automatically record to knowledge:
| Event | Write Location | Content | |-------|---------------|---------| | skill_complete | memory/knowledge/ | 记录学到了什么新技能/方法 | | skill_error | memory/knowledge/ | 记录错误原因和解决方案 |
统一写入知识库,因为都是"学到新知识"。
Write Steps
1. Detect conclusion/action (automatically, every time)
2. Format using "因-改-待" template
3. Write to memory/daily/YYYY-MM-DD.md
4. Update daily-index.md (add new topic or append date)
IMPORTANT: Always update index when writing to daily memory!
Update MEMORY.md (if needed)
When writing to MEMORY.md: 1. Check for duplicate/outdated rules 2. Merge and clean up 3. Keep it minimal
Example
讨论:我们要改进记忆系统,决定把目录分成 daily/ 和 knowledge/
结论:改完了,今天上传到 GitHub 和 ClawHub写入:
[2026-03-04] 记忆系统升级
因:原记忆目录混乱,查找困难
改:目录调整为 daily/ + knowledge/,上传 v1.1.0
待:检查 ClawHub 描述 更新索引:
记忆系统升级 → daily/2026-03-03.md,daily/2026-03-04.md

Requirements
None. This skill works with pure OpenClaw:
No external APIs. No embeddings. No costs.
Installation
1. Install Skill
clawdhub install memory-master
2. Auto-Initialize (Enhanced for v2.6.0)
# This will automatically:
- Migrate heartbeat rules from AGENTS.md to HEARTBEAT.md
- Optimize AGENTS.md (deduplicate, streamline, restructure)
- Convert MEMORY.md to pure lessons/experience repository
- Create memory directory structure and index files
- Backup original files to .memory-master-backup/ directory
clawdhub init memory-master
What the enhanced initialization does:
| Step | Action | Result |
|------|--------|--------|
| 1 | Backup | Original files saved to .memory-master-backup/ |
| 2 | Heartbeat Migration | Heartbeat content moved from AGENTS.md to HEARTBEAT.md |
| 3 | AGENTS.md Optimization | Remove duplicates, outdated rules, streamline language |
| 4 | MEMORY.md Transformation | Convert to pure lessons/experience repository |
| 5 | Memory Structure | Create memory/ directories and index files |
Post-initialization files:
~/.openclaw/workspace/
├── AGENTS.md # Optimized behavior rules + memory system rules
├── MEMORY.md # Pure lessons/experience repository
├── HEARTBEAT.md # Heartbeat tasks and guidelines
├── memory/
│ ├── daily/ # Daily records (YYYY-MM-DD.md format)
│ ├── knowledge/ # Knowledge base (*.md files)
│ ├── daily-index.md # Memory index
│ └── knowledge-index.md # Knowledge index
Or manually (advanced users):
# 1. Run the initialization script directly
node ~/.agents/skills/memory-master/scripts/init.js2. Or manually copy templates
cp ~/.agents/skills/memory-master/templates/optimized-agents.md ~/.openclaw/workspace/AGENTS.md
cp ~/.agents/skills/memory-master/templates/heartbeat-template.md ~/.openclaw/workspace/HEARTBEAT.md
cp ~/.agents/skills/memory-master/templates/memory-lessons.md ~/.openclaw/workspace/MEMORY.md3. Create memory directories
mkdir -p ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/daily
mkdir -p ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/knowledge4. Create index files
cp ~/.agents/skills/memory-master/templates/daily-index.md ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/daily-index.md
cp ~/.agents/skills/memory-master/templates/knowledge-index.md ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/knowledge-index.md

Memory Writing
Best Practices
1. Write immediately — Don't wait, write right after conclusion 2. Keep it brief — One line per point, but core info preserved 3. Use the template — 因 → 改 → 待 4. Update index — Always sync after writing 5. Heuristic recall — Don't wait for user to trigger 6. Learn proactively — When you don't know, say it and learn
Compression Detection (v2.6.3+)
⚠️ Important: Must run after EVERY response!
Run after every response:
node ~/.agents/skills/memory-master/scripts/detect.js
Display status at the bottom of every response:
