Consolidate Memory
Periodic refinement of MEMORY.md files across projects. Prunes redundant entries, merges overlapping knowledge, generates higher-order abstractions from accumulated patterns, and removes stale or superseded entries.
Inspired by npcsh's knowledge graph sleep/dream cycles — memory consolidation applied to research project knowledge.
When to Use
- Monthly maintenance (pair with
/system-audit) - When a
MEMORY.mdexceeds 100 entries - After completing a major project milestone (e.g., paper submission)
- When starting a new session and
MEMORY.mdfeels cluttered - When the same correction keeps appearing across multiple projects
When NOT to Use
- During active work sessions — consolidation is a maintenance task
- When
MEMORY.mdhas fewer than 10 entries — not enough to consolidate - Immediately after recording
[LEARN]tags — let knowledge accumulate first
