## Quick Start

### Basic Usage

```bash
cd ~/pi-mono-workspace/skills/openclaw-memory

# Search memory
./openclaw-memory.sh search "trading strategies"

# View statistics
./openaw-memory.sh stats

# List recent entries
./openclaw-memory.sh recent
```

### Encryption (V1.2.0)

```bash
# Generate encryption key
./openclaw-memory.sh key generate

# Encrypt a file
./openclaw-memory.sh encrypt MEMORY.md

# Decrypt a file
./openclaw-memory.sh decrypt MEMORY.md.enc
```

### Authentication (V1.2.0)

```bash
# Initialize authentication
./openclaw-memory.sh auth init

# Add a user
./openclaw-memory.sh auth add-user alice secret123

# Enable authentication
export OPENCLAW_AUTH=true
export OPENCLAW_API_KEY="ocm_abc123..."
```

### Rate Limiting (V1.2.0)

```bash
# Initialize rate limiting
./openclaw-memory.sh rate-limit init

# Enable rate limiting
export OPENCLAW_RATE_LIMIT=true

# Check rate limit status
./openclaw-memory.sh rate-limit status
```

## Best Practices

### Memory Organization

1. **Durable Facts** → Add to `MEMORY.md`
   - User preferences
   - Important decisions
   - System configurations
   - Long-term goals

2. **Daily Logs** → Create `memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md`
   - Daily activities
   - Session summaries
   - Short-term observations

3. **Agent Definitions** → Edit `AGENTS.md`
   - Agent roles
   - Sub-agent capabilities
   - Tool configurations

### Compression Schedule

```bash
# Weekly: Level 1 compression
0 0 * * 0 openclaw-memory.sh compress 1

# Monthly: Level 2 compression
0 0 1 * * openclaw-memory.sh compress 2

# Quarterly: Level 3 compression (archive)
0 0 1 1,4,7,10 * openclaw-memory.sh compress 3
```

## Security

The skill includes 11 defense layers:

| Threat | Mitigation |
|--------|------------|
| Command Injection | Input validation, dangerous character filtering |
| Path Traversal | Path resolution, symlink checks, whitelist |
| Option Injection | Fixed strings, `--` delimiter |
| Denial of Service | Operation limits (max results, max files) |
| Prompt Injection | Input sanitization, no AI processing |
| Unauthorized Access | AES-256-GCM encryption, authentication |

### Security Logging

All security events are logged to `/tmp/openclaw-memory.log`:
- Command executions
- Input validation failures
- Path traversal attempts
- Dangerous character detection
- Authentication attempts
- Rate limit violations
