🏛️ Memory Palace Skill

"The filesystem is the mind. Directories are rooms. Files are objects."

The ancient method of loci, adapted for LLMs navigating filesystems.

The Technique

Place knowledge in locations. Navigate to remember.

Each room contains:

  • Objects (files) — artifacts to examine
  • Exits (links) — doors to other rooms
  • Atmosphere — the room's essence

This IS the Room Skill

Memory Palace and Room are deeply connected:

Placing Knowledge

To remember something:

  1. Choose a room — where does this belong?
  2. Create a file — the object to place
  3. Link it — connect to related objects
  4. Walk there — navigate to reinforce
yaml
# palace/concepts/yaml-jazz/ROOM.yml
room:
  name: "YAML Jazz Chamber"
  contains:
    - "jazz-principles.md"    # Core ideas
    - "examples/"             # Sub-room of examples
  exits:
    parent: "../"
    related: "../play-learn-lift/"
  atmosphere: "improvisational, semantic"

Core Files

ENTRY.md

The front door to your palace:

markdown
# Palace Name

-[Room A](room-a/ROOM.md) - Description
-[Room B](room-b/ROOM.md) - Description
 
## Recent Activity
-Added X to Room A
-Created new Room C
MAP.yml

Navigation structure:

yaml

  name: "Research Palace"
  created: "2025-12-30"
  
rooms:
  - name: "foundations"
    path: "foundations/"
    description: "Core concepts"

Navigation Commands

IntentAction
"Enter the palace"Read ENTRY.md
"Look around"ls current directory
"Go to room X"cd to room, read ROOM.md
"Examine artifact"Read the file
"Leave a note"Create/update .meta.yml
"Create new room"mkdir + create ROOM.md
"Check the map"Read MAP.yml
"Where am I?"Note current path

Lifecycle

Create
  • mkdir palace root
  • create ENTRY.md
  • create MAP.yml
  • create initial rooms
Expand
  • create new room directory
  • add ROOM.md
  • update MAP.yml
  • link from related rooms
Maintain
  • update MAP.yml periodically
  • add cross-references
  • archive stale rooms
  • create summaries
Archive
  • move to attic/
  • note in MAP.yml
  • update links

Tips

  1. Start small — Begin with 3-5 rooms, expand as needed
  2. Name meaningfully — Directory names are addresses
  3. Link generously — Cross-references aid recall
  4. Leave breadcrumbs — Update .meta.yml as you explore
  5. Maintain the map — MAP.yml is your table of contents
  6. Archive, don't delete — Move stale rooms to attic/
