Set up the Basic Memory plugin for this project — a short guided interview that configures the project mapping, seeds note schemas, learns or suggests placement conventions, and enables capture reflexes. Use when the user runs /basic-memory:bm-setup, says…

Analyze a complete literary work into a structured Basic Memory knowledge graph: schema design, entity seeding, chapter-by-chapter processing, cross-referencing, and validation.

Create, run, and check Basic Memory Cloud agents: notes with type agent whose text is instructions. Use when asked to automate work on notes, run an agent, or see how a run went.

Capture a working thread's current state into one coherent Basic Memory note; on re-capture, rewrite it in place. Use mid- or end-of-thread when decisions, insights, or context are worth keeping.

Write Basic Memory notes that render as charts, tables, boards, and live views with `::bm-*` Comark components. Use when a note reads better as a figure or board, or already has `::bm-*` directives.

Resume prior work by rebuilding context from the Basic Memory graph via memory:// URLs, recent activity, and search. Use at session start or on 'continue with...', 'back to...', 'where were we?'

Curate the Basic Memory graph: link orphan notes, propose typed relations, merge duplicates, audit tags and folders, build hub notes. Use to organize and connect a knowledge base as notes accumulate.

Defragment a Basic Memory project: split bloated notes, consolidate scattered facts, resolve contradictions, retire stale content. Plans first; deletes only when told. Run weekly or on demand.

Defragment and reorganize agent memory files: split bloated files, merge duplicates, remove stale information, and restructure the memory hierarchy. Use when memory files have grown unwieldy, contain redundancies, or need reorganization. Run periodically…

Structured metadata search for Basic Memory: query notes by custom frontmatter fields using equality, range, array, and nested filters. Use when finding notes by status, priority, confidence, or any custom YAML field rather than free-text content.

Sleep-time memory reflection: review recent conversations and daily notes, extract insights, and consolidate into long-term memory. Use when triggered by cron, heartbeat, or explicit request to reflect on recent activity. Runs as background processing to…

Schema lifecycle management for Basic Memory: discover unschemaed notes, infer schemas, create and edit schema definitions, validate notes, and detect drift. Use when working with structured note types (Task, Person, Meeting, etc.) to maintain consistency…

Task management via Basic Memory schemas: create, track, and resume structured tasks that survive context compaction. Uses BM's schema system for uniform notes queryable through the knowledge graph.

Use the Basic Memory knowledge graph for persistent memory across sessions. Search before answering; capture decisions, meetings, and insights as notes.

Analyze a complete literary work into a structured Basic Memory knowledge graph. Covers schema design, entity seeding, chapter-by-chapter processing, cross-referencing, validation, and visualization.
