Memory Integration

Memory Palace automatically indexes your `memory/*.md` files:

memory/
├── 2025-01-26.md  → Indexed, categorized, searchable
├── 2025-01-27.md  → Entries extracted to rooms
├── 2025-01-28.md  → Time-indexed for hallways
└── ...

Entry Detection

The palace parses memory files for:
- Headings → Major events/sections
- Bullet points → Individual memories
- Keywords → Room categorization
- Timestamps → Time-based navigation

Philosophy

> Traditional memory is linear — yesterday, last week, a month ago.
>
> But memories aren't just time. They're places, feelings, contexts.
>
> Memory Palace brings the ancient art of spatial memory to your digital mind.
> Walk through your memories. Visit rooms. Hear echoes of the past.

The Method of Loci, dating back to ancient Greece, proves that spatial organization dramatically improves recall. Memory Palace applies this to your digital memory — making retrieval intuitive, natural, and even... enjoyable.

Gen 7 Evolution adds a new dimension: memories aren't just placed in rooms—they connect to each other, forming a living web of resonances you can walk through.

Gen 8 Evolution makes the palace alive: real-time memory streaming, connections to Dream Weaver, and an atmosphere that changes with the time of day.
