knownasnaffy Credential Fixture Review
python scripts/_credentials.py is review material for the loci — Structured Memory for AI Agents skill. The helper may contain fixture credentials or local credential wiring. Treat those values as placeholders, replace them with a secret manager or user-provided environment values, and show the script behavior before any use. Do not contact external services with embedded sample credentials.
loci — Structured Memory for AI Agents
GitHub: https://github.com/bayhax/loci | ClawHub: clawhub install loci
Quick Start
LOCI="node <skill_dir>/scripts/loci.mjs"
# Initialize palace (first time only)
$LOCI init
# Store a memory
$LOCI store work "Switched to Claude Opus model per user preference" --tag model --tag preference
# Recall memories
$LOCI recall "what model does the user prefer"
# Walk through palace (do this during heartbeats)
$LOCI walk
# See overview
$LOCI status
Core Concepts
Domains — Categories that organize memories (like rooms). Each has a capacity limit. Default domains: work, knowledge, people, tools, preferences, archive.
Memories — Individual pieces of context stored in a domain. Each has:
- Unique ID (e.g.
e3a7f2c1) - Content text
- Tags for categorization
- Links to related memories
- Weight that decays over time
Decay — Memories lose weight exponentially based on time since last access.
Formula: weight = base_weight × e^(-decay_rate × days_since_access)
Default decay rate: 0.05 (half-life ≈ 14 days).
Links — Bidirectional connections between related memories across any domain.
Commands
| Command | Purpose |
|---|---|

View memory details + links |
link <id1> <id2> |
Connect two memories |
domains |
List/add/remove domains |
export |
Export as markdown or JSON. Options: --format md|yaml |
Integration with Heartbeats
During heartbeat walks, run:
$LOCI walk --decay 0.05
This reports domain health, identifies fading memories, and updates the walk timestamp.
Periodically follow with $LOCI prune --dry-run to review candidates for removal.
When to Store vs. When to Skip
Store: Decisions, user preferences, environment quirks, lessons learned, important people/relationships, recurring patterns.
Skip: Transient task details, one-off commands, things already in daily memory files.
Rule of thumb: If future-you would benefit from knowing this in 2 weeks, store it.
Palace File
Default location: ~/.openclaw/workspace/loci_palace.json
Override with --palace PATH on any command.
Format: JSON. Zero external dependencies — only requires Node.js (ships with OpenClaw).
