Package Exports

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (pi-total-recall) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

pi-total-recall

Complete context stack for pi. One install gives your agent persistent memory, session history, and local knowledge search.

What's included

Layer	Package	What it does
Memory	@samfp/pi-memory	Learns preferences, project patterns, and corrections. Injects relevant facts into every session.
Session history	pi-session-search	Indexes past coding sessions. Search by topic to find previous work, decisions, and debugging context.
Knowledge base	pi-knowledge-search	Indexes local files (markdown, text, docs). Semantic search over your notes, documentation, and vault.

Together, these give pi three layers of context about you:

What you prefer — coding style, tool choices, project conventions (memory)
What you've done — past sessions, debugging history, previous decisions (session search)
What you know — notes, docs, research, reference material (knowledge search)

Install

pi install npm:pi-total-recall

That's it. All three extensions are active immediately.

Tools

After installing, your agent gets these tools:

Memory

Tool	Description
`memory_search`	Search stored facts and preferences
`memory_remember`	Store a fact or lesson
`memory_forget`	Remove a stored fact or lesson
`memory_lessons`	List learned corrections
`memory_stats`	Show memory statistics

Session History

Tool	Description
`session_search`	Semantic search over past sessions
`session_list`	Browse sessions by date, project, or status
`session_read`	Read the full conversation from a past session

Knowledge Search

Tool	Description
`knowledge_search`	Semantic search over local files

Configuration

Each component has its own configuration in ~/.pi/agent/settings.json. See the individual package READMEs for details:

Memory

{
  "memory": {
    "lessonInjection": "selective"
  }
}

Knowledge Search

Point it at your notes directory:

{
  "knowledge-search": {
    "paths": ["~/Documents/Notes"]
  }
}

Session History

Works out of the box — indexes your existing pi sessions automatically.

Project-local storage

By default, all three components write to user-global locations under ~/.pi/ — which is usually what you want, because memory, sessions, and a notes index are normally global across projects.

If you want a project's memory/index to be isolated — e.g. a throwaway prototype, a client repo, or an experimental agent setup — drop a pi-total-recall.localPath key into {project}/.pi/settings.json:

{
  "pi-total-recall": {
    "localPath": ".pi/total-recall"
  }
}

That single key cascades to all three packages:

Package	Cascaded path
`@samfp/pi-memory`	`{project}/.pi/total-recall/memory/memory.db`
`pi-session-search`	`{project}/.pi/total-recall/session-search/`
`pi-knowledge-search`	`{project}/.pi/total-recall/knowledge-search/`

You can also override any single package independently — package-specific keys win over the cascade:

{
  "pi-total-recall": { "localPath": ".pi/total-recall" },
  "pi-knowledge-search": {
    "localPath": "/some/other/path"   // overrides just this one
  }
}

Resolution order (highest priority first) for every package:

Package-specific env vars (KNOWLEDGE_SEARCH_CONFIG, etc.)
pi-<package>.localPath in {cwd}/.pi/settings.json
pi-total-recall.localPath cascade
Global default under ~/.pi/

Caveat: session-search source stays global

pi-session-search relocates only its own config and index — the session source directories (~/.pi/agent/sessions, ~/.pi/agent/sessions-archive) are pi's own files and remain global. That's where pi writes sessions, so making them project-local would point the tool at an empty directory. Use the project filter on session_search and session_list if you want to scope results to one project.

Cleanup

When using pi-total-recall.localPath:

rm -rf {project}/.pi/total-recall   # nukes memory, session-search config+index, knowledge-search config+index

Individual packages

If you only want one or two components, install them directly:

pi install @samfp/pi-memory
pi install pi-session-search
pi install pi-knowledge-search
