Codon

Codon gives every memory an address. You navigate to it — you don't search for it.

Setup

If MEMORY/ does not exist in this workspace, run it once:

bash {baseDir}/init.sh

How to store

1. Choose the right category from the taxonomy below
2. Assign the next available ID in that category (check XX.00-index.md)
3. Write to MEMORY//.md
4. Add the ID to the category's index file

Example: new client contact → MEMORY/10-19-People/10.01-acme-jane-smith.md

How to recall

Navigate by ID prefix — don't search, locate:

• "Who are my contacts?" → read files in MEMORY/10-19-People/
• "What projects are active?" → read files in MEMORY/20-29-Projects/
• "Find the Acme notes" → look for 10-19-People/10.XX-acme-*

Default taxonomy

Rules

• Existing memory.md is preserved. Use MEMORY/ for all new entries.
• If something fits two categories, prefer the more specific one. A person who is also a project contact goes in 10-19 People, not 20-29.
• Index files (XX.00-index.md) track which IDs are taken. Always update them.
• IDs are never reused, even after deletion.
