Agent Memory

Agent Memory Kit

Persistent memory that works for humans OR AI agents. Same files, same format.

The Problem

Every session starts fresh. No memory of yesterday. No context. You (or your agent) keeps re-learning the same things.

The Solution

Two templates that create continuity:

1. MEMORY.md — Persistent context (patterns, projects, lessons)
2. AGENTS.md — Operating instructions (how to work in this space)

Delivered via Notion — duplicate to your workspace and start using immediately. Works for humans tracking growth OR agents maintaining memory.

Quick Start (Files-Only Version)

This skill works WITHOUT Notion. Just use the files:

Step 1: Create Your Core Files

Create these in your workspace root:

/workspace/
├── MEMORY.md      # From assets/MEMORY-TEMPLATE-v2.md
├── IDENTITY.md    # From assets/IDENTITY-TEMPLATE.md
├── SOUL.md        # From assets/SOUL-TEMPLATE.md
├── USER.md        # From assets/USER-TEMPLATE.md
├── HEARTBEAT.md   # From assets/HEARTBEAT-TEMPLATE.md
└── memory/
    └── YYYY-MM-DD.md  # Daily logs

Step 2: Session Start Ritual

At the start of EVERY session:

1. Read MEMORY.md (long-term context)
2. Read IDENTITY.md (who you are)
3. Read today's and yesterday's daily logs
4. Check HEARTBEAT.md for scheduled tasks

Step 3: Session End Ritual

Before stopping:

1. Update today's daily log with what you did
2. If something significant changed → update MEMORY.md
3. Add a RESUME block if work was interrupted
4. Check HEARTBEAT.md for any scheduled follow-ups

Step 4: Optional Notion Integration

Want structured databases? See references/notion-integration.md for API setup.

Quick Start (Notion Version)

1. Get the templates at shop.vlad.chat
2. Duplicate the Notion template to your workspace
3. For agents: Set up Notion API access (instructions included)
4. Start every session by reading MEMORY.md
5. Document as you go — the Continuity Cycle keeps you on track

The Memory Stack

The Continuity Cycle

DO WORK → DOCUMENT → UPDATE INSTRUCTIONS → NEXT SESSION STARTS SMARTER

Two Steps Forward: Before finishing anything, ask: "Could I pick this up tomorrow with zero context?"

Works for Both

For humans: Track your growth, patterns, lessons learned. Your future self thanks you.

For agents: Maintain context across sessions. Stop re-learning every time.

Same format, same files. The methodology works regardless of who's using it.

Deeper Frameworks (Optional)

For structured introspection, the ACT Scrolls provide proven frameworks:

These work as standalone journaling frameworks or integrate with Notion for structured tracking.

How It's Delivered

The templates live in Notion. When you purchase:

1. Get access via Gumroad
2. Open the Notion template link
3. Click "Duplicate" to copy to your workspace
4. You now have MEMORY.md + AGENTS.md ready to use

For agents: Connect via Notion API to read/write:

# Set up API access
echo "ntn_XXX" > ~/.config/notion/api_key

# Query your databases
curl -s "https://api.notion.com/v1/databases/$DB_ID/query" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $(cat ~/.config/notion/api_key)" \
  -H 'Notion-Version: 2022-06-28'

See references/notion-integration.md for full API patterns.
