Markdown Is The Real Memory Source

OpenClaw memory already lives in workspace files like MEMORY.md and memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md. OpenTrust starts from that authored truth instead of inventing a fake replacement story.

Features

What OpenTrust adds on top of OpenClaw’s memory model

OpenClaw already captures memory in workspace Markdown. OpenTrust should ingest that source first, then add structure, provenance, recommendations, backups, and operator tooling around it.

Truthful Source Import

Import the real OpenClaw memory source today: MEMORY.md, memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md, and related workspace Markdown files.

Daily Summary Recommendations

Generate intelligent prompts and drafts for daily summaries, unresolved threads, and meaningful moments worth preserving.

Semantic + Exact Recall

Keep OpenClaw’s searchable memory feel while adding stronger structure, indexing, and operator review.

Lineage Tracking

Connect long-term memory back to workspace files, traces, artifacts, workflows, and future writeback sources.

Backup-Aware Storage

Recommend git-backed history, encrypted cloud backups, export bundles, and dual-store strategies for durable memory archives.

CRM-Ready Scaffolding

Plan for relationship memory, contacts, interactions, and follow-up queues in docs first before runtime implementation.


Comparison

Same memory source.
New operational power.

OpenClaw already has real memory. OpenTrust doesn't replace it — it makes it reviewable, traceable, and durable.

Source of truth preserved

Today

MEMORY.md and daily notes already work. Agents read and write workspace memory files with memory_search recall.

With plugin

OpenTrust ingests those same files. No replacement, no fake abstraction — just operational structure on top of authored truth.

Review & retention become first-class

Today

Memory capture exists, but no dedicated review queue, retention lifecycle, or structured approval workflow.

With plugin

Every memory candidate gets review status, retention class, provenance links, and operator visibility.

Timelines & backups become visible

Today

Memory truth exists in files, but backup strategy, timeline surfaces, and operational health are mostly implied.

With plugin

Calendar views, health monitoring, export flows, and backup-aware storage recommendations become first-class.

Intelligent capture recommendations

Today

Users can write summaries manually, but no built-in guidance about what deserves durable capture.

With plugin

Daily summary drafts, meaningful moment detection, and promotion suggestions based on actual activity.


Architecture

A visual current-vs-plugin architecture diagram

OpenTrust should begin by respecting the memory system OpenClaw already uses today, then layer operational structure and user-facing capabilities on top.

Storage Strategy

Your memory, two layers deep

Markdown stays yours and human-readable. OpenTrust adds structure, search, exports, and backups around it — never instead of it.

How it Works

From raw workspace files to structured memory ops

Four steps. Start from what OpenClaw already stores today, then layer in structure, recommendations, and full plugin-grade operations.

Step 1 of 4

Read current memory

Import MEMORY.md, memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md, and optional session-memory snapshots from the OpenClaw workspace.

memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md daily notes
Optional session-memory snapshots

Recommendations

Daily summaries and meaningful moments

OpenTrust doesn't just store memories — it intelligently suggests what deserves durable capture, when to summarize your day, and when a moment looks historically meaningful.
