Set up the Forgetful CLI and connect from a terminal — install, local or remote mode, auth, and verification. Use when connecting a human or headless agent via shell, wiring CI with token auth, or operating a local server (serve, database selection, feature…
Gather deep context before planning or implementing — one pass that turns a task description into a cited context pack: relevant decisions, patterns, constraints, code pointers, procedures, and explicit gaps. Runs recall from several angles, explores the…
Encode a repository into the Forgetful knowledge base — bootstrap the project, its entities, memories, and documents from the codebase itself. Use when bringing a new repo under Forgetful or refreshing a stale encoding. Re-encoding is an update pass:…
Model the things knowledge attaches to — people, organisations, devices, products, system components. Use when a new thing surfaces that memories will reference, when relationships between things need recording (owns, depends on, part of), or when another…
Explore the Forgetful knowledge graph when flat search isn't enough — cross-project investigations, "what do we know about X", entity-centred questions, tracing how decisions connect. Use when recall returns fragments that reference entities or trail across…
Recall past knowledge before working — prior decisions, solved problems, preferences, project history. Use at the start of any task, when the user references earlier work, when re-entering a project after time away, or before proposing an approach that may…
Remember knowledge worth keeping — a decision made, a solution found, a preference stated, a pattern confirmed. Use when work surfaces something future sessions will need, or the user asks to remember something. Routes content to the right store (memory,…
File binary content into the knowledge base — screenshots, PDFs, diagrams, fonts, assets. Use when a binary artifact is worth keeping alongside knowledge, or when a stored procedure needs a bundled asset. The description is the entire search surface: say what…
