## 🛡️ Conversation Guardian - Automatic Recording
After each response to the user, automatically record the conversation:
```bash
source ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/conversation-guard.sh
# Determine importance (1-10)
importance=5
tags="casual"
# Increase importance for emotional content
if [[ "$USER_MESSAGE" =~ (难受|开心|生气|喜欢|讨厌|重要|记住|别忘) ]]; then
importance=9
tags="emotional"
fi
# Increase for technical discussions
if [[ "$USER_MESSAGE" =~ (设计|架构|方案|修改|实现|决定) ]]; then
importance=$((importance + 2))
tags="$tags,technical"
fi
# Record the interaction
record_interaction "$USER_MESSAGE" "$ASSISTANT_RESPONSE" $importance "$tags"
Critical: Mark NEW SESSION events immediately:
# At session start, detect if recovered from reset
if [ -f ".guardian/.session_reset_detected" ]; then
record_interaction "[System] Session recovered" "Continuing our conversation..." 10 "system,recovery"
