Fragments
Setup Check
- Read
~/.config/fragments.json(Windows:%USERPROFILE%\.config\fragments.json). - If file missing → first install. Detect current platform, read the matching setup guide:
- Claude Code →
references/setup-claude-code.md - OpenCode →
references/setup-opencode.md - OpenClaw →
references/setup-openclaw.md
- Claude Code →
- If file exists → verify MCP is configured. If incomplete → read the matching setup guide.
- All good → proceed to normal usage.
Platform Detection
Detect the current platform by checking for platform-specific markers:
| Platform | Detection Marker |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | ~/.claude/ directory exists |
| OpenCode | ~/.config/opencode/ directory exists |
| OpenClaw | ~/.openclaw/ directory exists |
Modes
memo — Full Lifecycle Management
Create, search, update, delete, and comment on memos via MCP tools.
Workflows:
- Create & dedup →
references/memo-capture.md - Update & delete →
references/memo-capture.md#lifecycle - Comments →
references/memo-comments.md
Write operations require user confirmation before calling.
daily-log — Daily Work Journal
One structured log per user per day. Content follows .plan format
enforced by the Memos server.
Format rules, diff-merge logic, and hook trigger workflow:
→ references/daily-log.md
search — Semantic Search
Server-side full-text retrieval via MCP, optional client-side TF-IDF + LSA rerank for semantic/fuzzy queries.
Pipeline details and tuning parameters:
→ references/search-strategy.md
Retrieval Strategy
Data volume can be large. Always prefer targeted retrieval over bulk listing.
Memos
- Search first:
memos_search_memos(query=...)— use when the user has any intent, keyword, or topic. Returns bounded results. - Get by ID:
memos_get_memo(name=...)— use when you already know the memo name. Expand full content only for shortlisted results. - List as fallback:
memos_list_memos(page_size=10)— use only for explicit "show recent" requests. Always set a smallpage_size. - Client-side rerank: pipe search results through
scripts/fragments_search.pyfor semantic ranking when server-side results need refinement.
Comments
- List comments:
memos_list_memo_comments(name=...)— retrieve all comments on a memo. Comments inherit the parent memo's visibility.
Daily Logs
- Get by date:
memos_get_daily_log(date=YYYY-MM-DD)— single log lookup. Passcreator="users/{id}"to view another user's log (PROTECTED visibility). - List with date range:
memos_list_daily_logs(start_date, end_date, page_size=10)— use only for explicit "show this week/month" requests. Always bound the range.
Tags
memos_list_tags— lightweight, use to discover available tags for filtering.
No read operations require user confirmation.
Write Operations
All write operations require explicit user confirmation before calling. Read operations need no confirmation. Never echo PAT tokens to the conversation.
Memo Writes
| Operation | MCP Tool | When to Use |
|---|---|---|
| Create | memos_create_memo |
New idea, note, snippet |
| Update | memos_update_memo |
Modify content, visibility, pin |
| Delete | memos_delete_memo |
Remove memo (irreversible) |
| Add comment | memos_create_memo_comment |
Append discussion to memo |
Daily Log Writes
memos_save_daily_log(date=..., content=...)— full replacement save. Always include complete content (existing + new lines).
Hook Workflow (Passive Trigger)
When triggered by agent task completion:
- Assess whether this session performed meaningful work. Skip if trivial.
- Call
memos_get_daily_logfor today's date. - Format new entries in
.planstyle. - Diff against existing content. Skip if no new information.
- Long-form content → suggest creating a memo first, reference in daily log.
- Show user the full merged log (existing + new). Wait for confirmation.
- Call
memos_save_daily_logwith complete content (full replacement).
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install fragments - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/fragments - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
