-# Squish - Two-Tier Memory System for Claude Code
+# Squish - Universal Two-Tier Memory for AI Agents
 
-A persistent, context-aware memory plugin for Claude Code (v0.7.2) that provides intelligent memory management with a two-tier architecture: always-in-context core memory (2KB) plus context paging for selective memory loading.
+**Squish gives any AI agent persistent, intelligent memory through a two-tier architecture.** Without memory, agents forget everything between sessions. With Squish, they learn, adapt, and get smarter over time - regardless of which agent framework you use.
 
-**Dual-Mode Operation:**
-- **MCP Server** for Claude Code (default, no args)
-- **CLI Commands** for OpenClaw/bash execution
-
-**What's New in v0.7.2:**
-- **CLI Mode**: Execute `squish remember`, `search`, `recall` directly from terminal
-- **Local Embeddings**: Zero-dependency TF-IDF embeddings (works offline, no Ollama needed)
-- **OpenClaw Ready**: Install via npm, use via bash commands
-
-## Features
-
-### Memory Architecture
-
-- **Core Memory (Tier 1)**: 2KB always-visible persistent memory divided into 4 sections
-  - `persona`: AI assistant personality and role definition
-  - `user_info`: Information about the user and their preferences
-  - `project_context`: Current project architecture and patterns
-  - `working_notes`: Transient notes during active work sessions
-
-- **Context Paging (Tier 2)**: Agent-controlled memory loading with token budgeting
-  - Dynamically load/evict memories based on relevance
-  - Token-aware context management (8KB default budget)
-  - Automatic memory decay and lifecycle management
-
-### MCP Tools
-
-**Core Memory Management:**
-- `/core_memory` - View, edit, or append to always-in-context memory sections
-
-**Context & Search:**
-- `/context_paging` - Load/evict/view loaded memories in current session
-- `/context` - Get project context with semantically relevant memories
-- `/search` - Full-text + semantic search across memories
-- `/context_status` - Check context window usage and loaded memories
-
-**Memory Operations:**
-- `/remember` - Store new observations, facts, decisions, and preferences
-- `/recall` - Retrieve specific memories by ID with metadata
-- `/observe` - Record tool usage and patterns observed during execution
-
-**Memory Management:**
-- `/merge` - Detect duplicates, preview/approve/reject merges
-
-**System:**
-- `/health` - Check MCP server and database connectivity
-
-### Storage
-
-- **SQLite** (local mode): Local-first, zero setup required
-- **PostgreSQL** (team mode): Shared memory across users
-- Smart embeddings: Local TF-IDF (offline) for SQLite, OpenAI/Ollama for PostgreSQL
-
-### OpenClaw Gateway (v0.7.0)
+```bash
+npm install squish-memory
+```
 
-Squish provides a **WebSocket gateway** for OpenClaw AI assistant integration, enabling OpenClaw agents to access Squish's memory system.
+## Why Agents Need Memory
 
-**Gateway Details:**
-- **Protocol**: WebSocket
-- **Port**: 18789
-- **Messages**: search, remember, recall, status
+| Without Squish | With Squish |
+|----------------|-------------|
+| Forgets after every session | Remembers across sessions |
+| Repeats the same mistakes | Learns from past decisions |
+| No context awareness | Builds project understanding |
+| Can't track preferences | Adapts to user style |
 
-**Enable Gateway:**
-```bash
-export OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_ENABLED=true
-```
+## How It Works
 
-**Message Format:**
-```json
-{
-  "type": "search",
-  "id": "unique-request-id",
-  "payload": {
-    "query": "authentication flow",
-    "limit": 10
-  }
-}
-```
+Squish uses a two-tier memory architecture for optimal performance:
+- **Fast Search Tier**: QMD (Quick Markdown Search) provides lightning-fast hybrid BM25 + vector search
+- **Persistent Storage Tier**: SQLite (local) or PostgreSQL (team) ensures durable, reliable memory storage
 
-**Response Format:**
-```json
-{
-  "type": "search",
-  "id": "unique-request-id",
-  "success": true,
-  "data": {
-    "results": [...],
-    "count": 10
-  }
-}
 ```

+
+## Key Features
+
+### Memory Intelligence
+- **Trigger Detection**: Auto-detects "remember", "important", corrections
+- **Contradiction Resolution**: Auto-updates when facts change
+- **Temporal Facts**: Handles time-bound information ("until January")
+- **Confidence Scoring**: Knows how reliable each memory is
+
+### Retrieval Quality
+- **Hybrid Search**: Vector + keyword (BM25) with fusion
+- **Multi-factor Ranking**: Semantic, recency, importance, confidence
+- **Telemetry**: Tracks which memories are actually useful
+
+### Agent Safety
+- **Write Gate**: Validates content before storage
+- **Secret Detection**: Auto-redacts API keys, passwords
+- **Graceful Degradation**: Works even when database fails

-
-# Search memories
-squish search "authentication" --limit 5
-squish search "TypeScript" --type fact
-
-# View core memory
-squish core_memory view
+```typescript
+// Add memory via HTTP
+POST /api/memories
+{
+  "content": "User prefers TypeScript",
+  "type": "preference",
+  "container": "my-project",
+  "tags": ["preferences", "coding-style"]
+}
 
-# Retrieve by ID
-squish recall <memory-id>
+// Search memories via HTTP
+GET /api/memories/search?query=TypeScript&limit=10
 ```
 
-**Memory Types:** `fact`, `decision`, `preference`, `observation`, `context`
+**Universal Benefits:**
+- Works with any AI agent (Claude, OpenAI, Anthropic, custom)

 ## Architecture
 
-### Database Schema
-
-**Core Tables:**
-- `core_memory` - Always-in-context 2KB persistent memory
-- `memories` - Main memory storage with lifecycle tracking
-- `context_sessions` - Per-session context window tracking
-- `conversations` - Chat session records
-- `messages` - Message history with embeddings
-
-**Lifecycle Tables:**
-- `memory_associations` - Semantic relationships between memories
-- `memory_merge_proposals` - Duplicate detection proposals
-- `memory_merge_history` - Audit trail of merges
-- `memory_snapshots` - Before/after diffs for auditability
-- `session_summaries` - Incremental and rolling summaries
-
-**Search & Discovery:**
-- `entities` - Named entities (functions, files, patterns, people)
-- `entity_relations` - Relationships between entities
-- `memory_hash_cache` - Hash signatures for duplicate detection
-
-### Memory Lifecycle States
-
-Each memory has:
-- **Sector**: episodic, semantic, procedural, autobiographical, working
-- **Tier**: hot (recent/relevant), warm (accessible), cold (archived)
-- **Status**: active, merged, superseded, expired
-- **Visibility**: private (user), project, team, global
-
-### Hooks
-
-4 lifecycle hooks automatically trigger:
-
-| Hook | Trigger | Purpose |
-|------|---------|---------|
-| `SessionStart` | Session begins | Initialize session memory, load core memory |
-| `UserPromptSubmit` | User sends message | Enhance prompt with relevant memories |
-| `PostToolUse` | Tool completes | Record tool usage observations |
-| `SessionEnd` | Session closes | Persist discoveries, summarize session |

+### Two-Tier Memory System
+Squish employs a two-tier architecture for optimal performance and reliability:
+- **Fast Search Tier**: QMD (Quick Markdown Search) provides hybrid BM25 + vector search with sub-second response times
+- **Persistent Storage Tier**: SQLite (local mode) or PostgreSQL (team mode) ensures durable, ACID-compliant memory storage
+
+### Universal Interfaces
+- **MCP Server**: Native integration for Claude Code, OpenClaw, and any MCP-compatible agent
+- **HTTP REST API**: Universal JSON API works with any AI agent capable of HTTP requests
+- **WebSocket**: Real-time memory sync and notifications for collaborative agents
+- **CLI**: Standalone command-line tool for shell-based agents and debugging
+
+### Memory Organization
+- **Core Memory (2KB)**: Always-visible sections for persona, user info, project context, and working notes
+- **Context Paging**: Agent-controlled retrieval with token budgeting (8KB default)
+- **Background Jobs**: Automatic memory maintenance including decay, deduplication, and consolidation
+
+### Memory Lifecycle
+- **Sectors**: episodic, semantic, procedural, autobiographical, working memory
+- **Tiers**: hot (recently accessed), warm (accessible), cold (archived but searchable)
+- **Status**: active, merged, superseded, expired (with automatic handling)
+
+### Deployment Flexibility
+- **Local SQLite**: Zero-configuration, perfect for individual agents and edge deployment
+- **PostgreSQL**: Horizontal scaling for teams and enterprise deployments
+- **Docker**: Single-command deployment with docker-compose.universal.yml
+- **Cloud**: Ready for AWS/GCP/Azure with standard PostgreSQL compatibility

 ## Troubleshooting
 
 ### Database Issues
+- **SQLite corrupted**: Delete `.squish/squish.db` and restart
+- **PostgreSQL connection**: Verify DATABASE_URL format
 
-**Error: "database disk image is malformed"**
-- SQLite database corrupted - delete `~/.squish/squish.db` and restart
-
-**Error: "Connection refused"** (PostgreSQL mode)
-- Verify DATABASE_URL is correct: `postgresql://user:pass@host:5432/dbname`
-- Ensure PostgreSQL server is running
-
-### MCP Server Issues
+### MCP Issues
+- **Hooks not working**: Run `bun run build` first
+- **API prompts**: Set `SQUISH_EMBEDDINGS_PROVIDER=local`
 
-**Error: "Hook error: ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ESM_URL_SCHEME"**
-- Use relative paths in hooks.json instead of absolute Windows paths
-- Use `./hooks/file.js` instead of `C:\path\to\hooks.js`
-
-**Error: "Plugin not found in marketplace"**
-- Using `--plugin-dir` flag? This is expected - not installed from marketplace
-- For local development, this is normal behavior
-
-### Performance Issues
-
-**Memory is growing unbounded**
-- Enable lifecycle management: `SQUISH_LIFECYCLE_ENABLED=true`
-- Review memory decay rates in configuration
-
-### OpenClaw Gateway Issues (v0.7.0)
-
-**Gateway not starting on port 18789**
-- Check if port is already in use: `lsof -i :18789` (macOS/Linux) or `netstat -ano | findstr :18789` (Windows)
-- Verify gateway is enabled: `echo $OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_ENABLED`
-- Check logs for connection errors
-
-**OpenClaw client cannot connect**
-- Ensure gateway is running: Check Squish logs for "OpenClaw gateway listening on port 18789"
-- Verify firewall allows connections on port 18789
-- Check WebSocket client is using correct protocol (ws:// or wss://)
