# Memory Consolidation > *"The art of remembering is the art of forgetting what doesn't matter."* ## When This Skill Activates - Optimizing vault storage, archiving old entries, deduplicating - Keywords: "consolidate", "optimize memory", "clean up", "archive", "deduplicate" - Default for: Starlight Prime ## What This Skill Does Optimizes the Starlight Vaults by consolidating related entries, archiving stale data, deduplicating, and ensuring memory remains high-quality and retrievable. Inspired by AI-Ops research on memory consolidation patterns (Working -> Episodic -> Semantic -> Procedural). ## Procedures ### Procedure 1: Memory Hierarchy Consolidation Following the AI-Ops memory hierarchy: 1. **Working Memory** (current session context) - Review items in current context - Identify what should be promoted to persistent storage 2. **Episodic Memory** (specific events/sessions) - Review Session Notes older than 30 days - Extract lasting insights, archive the rest - Promote patterns to Semantic Memory 3. **Semantic Memory** (general knowledge/facts) - Review vault entries for accuracy - Merge related entries into comprehensive entries - Promote proven patterns to Procedural Memory 4. **Procedural Memory** (how-to knowledge) - Review skill effectiveness - Update skills based on accumulated learnings - Archive deprecated procedures ### Procedure 2: Deduplication 1. Scan vaults for entries with high similarity 2. Compare content, time
