OneDrive Memory Skill

This skill provides persistent memory storage using the local OneDrive folder. Memories sync automatically to the cloud.

When to Use This Skill

PROACTIVELY remember things when you discover:

• •Project structure, architecture, or key files
• •Important decisions and their rationale
• •User preferences for coding style, naming, formatting
• •Gotchas, bugs, or things that "just work this way"
• •Ongoing tasks, blockers, or next steps

PROACTIVELY recall context at the start of sessions or when:

• •Starting work on a project (recall project context)
• •Making decisions (recall previous decisions)
• •Writing code (recall preferences)
• •Encountering issues (recall learnings)

Commands

Remember - Store a Memory

odsp-memory remember <category> <content> [--tags=tag1,tag2]

Categories:

• •project - Codebase structure, architecture, key files
• •decision - Choices made and rationale
• •preference - Coding style, conventions, formatting preferences
• •learning - Gotchas, discoveries, important notes
• •task - Ongoing work, next steps, blockers

Examples:

odsp-memory remember project "This is a React TypeScript app. Main components in /src/components, API routes in /src/api"
odsp-memory remember decision "Using Zustand for state management - simpler than Redux, team already familiar" --tags=architecture,state
odsp-memory remember preference "User prefers functional components with hooks, no class components"
odsp-memory remember learning "The auth middleware requires the token in x-auth-token header, not Authorization"

Recall - Retrieve Memories

odsp-memory recall [query] [--category=<category>] [--limit=<number>]

Examples:

odsp-memory recall                           # Recent memories
odsp-memory recall --category=project        # All project context
odsp-memory recall authentication            # Search for auth-related
odsp-memory recall database --category=decision  # Database decisions

List - See All Memories

odsp-memory list [category]

Examples:

odsp-memory list                  # All memories grouped by category
odsp-memory list decision         # Just decisions

Forget - Remove a Memory

odsp-memory forget <id>

The ID can be partial (first 8 characters is usually enough).

Status - Check OneDrive Detection

odsp-memory status

Config - Multiple OneDrive Accounts

If the user has multiple OneDrive accounts:

odsp-memory config list      # List available folders
odsp-memory config set 2     # Select folder #2
odsp-memory config reset     # Reset to auto-detection

Best Practices for Memory Content

1. •Be specific and actionable - "API uses JWT tokens in Authorization header" not "uses tokens"
2. •Include the why - "Chose PostgreSQL for ACID compliance in financial data"
3. •Reference file paths - "Main entry point is /src/index.ts, routes defined in /src/routes/"
4. •Note gotchas explicitly - "GOTCHA: Must run npm install in /packages/shared first"
5. •Update outdated memories - If something changes, forget the old memory and create a new one

Session Start Routine

At the beginning of a session with a returning user, consider:

odsp-memory recall --category=project --limit=5
odsp-memory recall --category=preference
odsp-memory recall --category=task --limit=3

This gives you project context, user preferences, and any ongoing tasks.

Storage Location

Memories are stored in the user's OneDrive folder at:

OneDrive/Apps/ClaudeMemory/

Files are human-readable markdown and sync automatically across devices.
