--- title: "Memory Graph" --- CORE's memory graph is the foundation of how your digital brain works. Unlike traditional databases that store isolated facts, CORE creates a living network of connected information. ### How Your Memory is Structured Your memory consists of three types of building blocks: 1. **Episodes - The raw conversations and interactions you have** - Every chat with Claude, message in Slack, or note you add becomes an episode - Episodes preserve the original context and serve as the source of truth 2. **Entities - The people, places, concepts, and relationships in your world** - Names like "Manik," concepts like "React," companies like "TaskMaster" - Even relationships like "works at" or "prefers" are treated as entities 3. **Statements - The specific facts extracted from your episodes** - "Alex works on TaskMaster" or "Manik prefers TypeScript" - Each statement knows when it became true and links back to its source episode ### Why This Structure Matters This approach gives CORE unique advantages over simple note-taking or search systems: - **Traceable Knowledge**: Every fact in your memory can be traced back to the original conversation where you mentioned it - **Smart Connections**: When you mention "TaskMaster," CORE finds not just that word, but all related people, timelines, and decisions connected to your project - **Evolving Understanding**: As you have more conversations, CORE builds richer connections between existing entities rather than creating isolated notes
