Save Memory

Deprecated: Use mcp__serena__write_memory for memory creation. See Memory Interface Decision Matrix.

Create an atomic memory from the current conversation context.

Your Task

1. Analyze the conversation for the key insight/decision/pattern to capture
2. Check for existing related memories that might be affected
3. Create the memory with proper curation

User guidance: $ARGUMENTS

Pre-Creation: Check for Existing Memories

Before creating, query for related memories:

execute_forgetful_tool("query_memory", {
  "query": "<topic of new memory>",
  "query_context": "Checking for existing memories before creating new one",
  "k": 5,
  "include_links": true
})

Analyze results to determine if the new memory would:

• Invalidate an existing memory (mark it obsolete with mark_memory_obsolete)
• Update an existing memory (use update_memory instead of creating new)
• Supersede an existing memory (create new, then mark old as obsolete with superseded_by)
• Complement existing memories (create new and potentially link_memories)

Atomic Memory Principles (Zettelkasten)

Before creating, verify the memory passes the atomicity test:

• Can you understand the idea at first glance?
• Can you easily title it in 5-50 words?
• Does it represent ONE concept/fact/decision?

Memory Constraints

• Title: Max 200 characters - short, searchable phrase
• Content: Max 2000 characters (~300-400 words) - single concept
• Context: Max 500 characters - WHY this matters
• Keywords: Max 10 - for semantic clustering
• Tags: Max 10 - for categorization

Importance Scoring Guide

• 9-10: Personal facts, foundational architectural patterns
• 8-9: Critical technical solutions, major architectural decisions
• 7-8: Useful patterns, strong preferences, tool choices
• 6-7: Project milestones, specific solutions
• 5-6: Minor context (use sparingly)
