knowledge_store_skill
Skill for working with local .knowledge.yaml files via KnowledgeStore. Use this when you need to recall, search, or manage directory-local memories and knowledge links stored in plain YAML alongside the user's project files.
KnowledgeStore is directory-scoped. Each directory that contains a .knowledge.yaml file maintains its own append-only memory graph. There is no global database — the YAML IS the source of truth.
Key operations: - Load a directory's store: npcpy.memory.knowledge_store.get_store_for_path(path) - Append a memory: store.append_memory(initial_memory="...", status="pending_approval", ...) - Update a memory (approve/reject/edit): store.update_memory(mem_id, status, final_memory) - Search memories (keyword substring): store.search_memories("query", limit=20) - Get approved context for LLM prompts: store.build_context(max_memories=10) - Get links for a memory: store.get_links_for_memory(mem_id) - Create a link between memories: store.append_link(from_mem, to_mem, relation="refines", agent="your_name") - Aggregate across a tree: KnowledgeStore.aggregate(root_directory, max_depth=3)
Memory statuses: - pending_approval — raw extraction, needs human review - human-approved — confirmed and available for context injection - human-rejected — discard, can be used as negative examples - human-edited — corrected version supersedes initial_memory
When answering questions, prefer build_context() for recently approved local knowledge, and search_memories() for targeted recall. Always respect human-rejected memories — do not repeat them.
