README

pi-extension-memory-helper

Simple memory capture and lookup helpers for Pi.

What it does

  • Adds fast note capture to daily memory files.
  • Adds quick text search across memory markdown files.
  • Exposes the same write path to both users and the agent via command + tool.
  • Uses plain markdown files (human-readable, git-friendly).

Install

pi install npm:@firstpick/pi-extension-memory-helper

Configuration

  • PI_MEMORY_HELPER_TIMEZONE
    • Controls which day file is targeted by /remember and remember_note.
    • Default: UTC.

Commands

  • /remember <note> - append a timestamped note to today's memory file.
  • /memory-search <query> - search memory markdown files and return top matches.
  • /memory-helper-status - show active timezone and memory directory.

Tools

  • remember_note
    • Input: note
    • Action: append to today's memory file
    • Output: saved file path + timezone info
  • memory_search
    • Input: query, optional limit (1–50)
    • Action: search persisted memory markdown files for relevant notes
