Fixes upstream issues #3/#5/#9 (whole-wiki in every prompt) and adds large-log chunking. Addresses the audit's P1 scaling findings (C1), the chunking requirement operator added on top, C8 explicit model wiring across all LLM call sites, and D3 single-event-loop refactor. ## compile.py - **Index-only context.** The `existing_articles_context` concatenation of every wiki article has been removed from the prompt. Instead the LLM receives only the index + schema + daily log and uses the Read tool (already in allowed_tools) to fetch specific articles it decides are relevant. Prompt size stays bounded regardless of KB growth — upstream's 250K-token prompts past ~100 articles are gone. - **Chunking.** `_split_log_into_chunks()` splits oversized daily logs along `### ` section boundaries. Threshold MAX_LOG_CHARS_PER_CHUNK (default 100K chars ≈ 25K tokens, configurable via MEMORIA_MAX_LOG_CHARS). Chunks compile via separate LLM calls that naturally merge through Edit on shared files. Oversized single sections emit as their own chunks rather than splitting mid-thought. - **Atomic state on chunked compile.** State is only written after ALL chunks succeed — partial-failure leaves the log flagged as uncompiled in state.json so the next run retries it cleanly. Was already correct for single-chunk logs (early return on SDK error) and now correct for multi-chunk too. - **Explicit model.** `model=COMPILE_MODEL` passed to ClaudeAgentOptions. Default "sonnet"; override via MEMORIA_COMPILE_MODEL env var. - **D3: single asyncio.run.** The per-file `asyncio.run()` in the compile loop is replaced with one outer call wrapping `_compile_all`. Avoids repeated event-loop setup/teardown and matches the pattern used for async resources in the SDK. ## query.py - **Index-only context.** `read_all_wiki_content()` replaced with `read_wiki_index()`. The LLM reads the index and uses its Read tool to fetch specific articles. Same rationale as compile.py — keeps prompt size bounded and cost predictable. - **Explicit model.** `model=QUERY_MODEL`, default "sonnet", override via MEMORIA_QUERY_MODEL. ## lint.py - **C9: skip qa/sources in missing-backlink check.** Articles under qa/ or sources/ no longer trigger a suggestion that every referenced concept should backlink to them. Concepts aren't expected to link back to every Q&A that mentions them — doing so would drown real relationships. - **Alias-aware backlink detection.** Uses `extract_wikilinks()` to parse the target's link list so `[[concepts/foo|Display]]` forms count as valid backlinks (previously required exact `[[foo]]` match, causing false positives on aliased forms). - **Explicit model.** `model=LINT_MODEL` in check_contradictions call, default "sonnet", override via MEMORIA_LINT_MODEL. ## Verified - Chunking: 120K-char 3-section log splits into 80K + 40K, reconstructs byte-exact. Oversized single section (150K) emits as its own chunk. Small log (<100K) returns as single chunk. - All patched modules import cleanly with expected config values. - compile_daily_log / query.run_query / flush.maybe_trigger_compilation / lint.check_missing_backlinks all callable post-patch. |

LLM Personal Knowledge Base
Your AI conversations compile themselves into a searchable knowledge base.
Adapted from Karpathy's LLM Knowledge Base architecture, but instead of clipping web articles, the raw data is your own conversations with Claude Code. When a session ends (or auto-compacts mid-session), Claude Code hooks capture the conversation transcript and spawn a background process that uses the Claude Agent SDK to extract the important stuff - decisions, lessons learned, patterns, gotchas - and appends it to a daily log. You then compile those daily logs into structured, cross-referenced knowledge articles organized by concept. Retrieval uses a simple index file instead of RAG - no vector database, no embeddings, just markdown.
Anthropic has clarified that personal use of the Claude Agent SDK is covered under your existing Claude subscription (Max, Team, or Enterprise) - no separate API credits needed. Unlike OpenClaw, which requires API billing for its memory flush, this runs on your subscription.
Quick Start
Tell your AI coding agent:
"Clone https://github.com/coleam00/claude-memory-compiler into this project. Set up the Claude Code hooks so my conversations automatically get captured into daily logs, compiled into a knowledge base, and injected back into future sessions. Read the AGENTS.md for the full technical reference on how everything works."
The agent will:
- Clone the repo and run
uv syncto install dependencies - Copy
.claude/settings.jsoninto your project (or merge the hooks into your existing settings) - The hooks activate automatically next time you open Claude Code
From there, your conversations start accumulating. After 6 PM local time, the next session flush automatically triggers compilation of that day's logs into knowledge articles. You can also run uv run python scripts/compile.py manually at any time.
How It Works
Conversation -> SessionEnd/PreCompact hooks -> flush.py extracts knowledge
-> daily/YYYY-MM-DD.md -> compile.py -> knowledge/concepts/, connections/, qa/
-> SessionStart hook injects index into next session -> cycle repeats
- Hooks capture conversations automatically (session end + pre-compaction safety net)
- flush.py calls the Claude Agent SDK to decide what's worth saving, and after 6 PM triggers end-of-day compilation automatically
- compile.py turns daily logs into organized concept articles with cross-references (triggered automatically or run manually)
- query.py answers questions using index-guided retrieval (no RAG needed at personal scale)
- lint.py runs 7 health checks (broken links, orphans, contradictions, staleness)
Key Commands
uv run python scripts/compile.py # compile new daily logs
uv run python scripts/query.py "question" # ask the knowledge base
uv run python scripts/query.py "question" --file-back # ask + save answer back
uv run python scripts/lint.py # run health checks
uv run python scripts/lint.py --structural-only # free structural checks only
Why No RAG?
Karpathy's insight: at personal scale (50-500 articles), the LLM reading a structured index.md outperforms vector similarity. The LLM understands what you're really asking; cosine similarity just finds similar words. RAG becomes necessary at ~2,000+ articles when the index exceeds the context window.
