Knowledge Locator
A spatial indexing and retrieval system for finding information within and across memory palaces. Enables multi-modal search using spatial, semantic, sensory, and associative queries.
What It Is
The Knowledge Locator provides efficient information retrieval across your memory palace network by:
- Building and maintaining spatial indices for fast lookup
- Supporting multiple search modalities (spatial, semantic, sensory)
- Mapping cross-references between palaces
- Tracking access patterns for optimization
Quick Start
Search Palaces
python scripts/palace_manager.py search "authentication" --type semantic
Verification: Run python --version to verify Python environment.
List All Palaces
python scripts/palace_manager.py list
Verification: Run python --version to verify Python environment.
When To Use
- Finding specific concepts within one or more memory palaces
- Cross-referencing information across different palaces
- Discovering connections between stored information
- Finding information using partial or contextual queries
- Analyzing access patterns for palace optimization
When NOT To Use
- Creating new palace structures - use memory-palace-architect
- Processing new external resources - use knowledge-intake
- Creating new palace structures - use memory-palace-architect
- Processing new external resources - use knowledge-intake
Search Modalities
| Mode | Description | Best For | |------|-------------|----------| | Spatial | Query by location path | "Find concepts in the Workshop" | | Semantic | Search by meaning/keywords | "Find authentication-related items" | | Sensory | Locate by sensory attributes | "Blue-colored concepts" | | Associative | Follow connection chains | "Related to OAuth" | | Temporal | Find by creation/access date | "Recently accessed" |
Core Workflow
- Build Index - Create spatial index of all palaces
- Optimize Search - Configure search strategies and heuristics
- Map Cross-References - Identify inter-palace connections
- Test Retrieval - Validate search accuracy and speed
- Analyze Patterns - Track and optimize based on usage
Target Metrics
- Retrieval latency: ≤ 150ms cached, ≤ 500ms cold
- Top-3 accuracy: ≥ 90% for semantic queries
- Robustness: ≥ 80% success with incomplete queries

PR Review Search
Search the review chamber within project palaces for past decisions and patterns.
Quick Commands
# Search review chamber by query
python scripts/palace_manager.py search "authentication" \
--palace <project_id> \
--room review-chamber
# List entries in specific room
python scripts/palace_manager.py list-reviews \
--palace <project_id> \
--room decisions
# Find by tags
python scripts/palace_manager.py search-reviews \
--tags security,api \
--since 2025-01-01
Verification: Run python --version to verify Python environment.
Review Chamber Rooms
| Room | Content | Example Query |
|------|---------|---------------|
| decisions/ | Architectural choices | "JWT vs sessions" |
| patterns/ | Recurring solutions | "error handling pattern" |
| standards/ | Quality conventions | "API error format" |
| lessons/ | Post-mortems | "outage learnings" |
Context-Aware Surfacing
When starting work in a code area, surface relevant review knowledge:
# When in auth/ directory
python scripts/palace_manager.py context-search auth/
# Returns:
# - Past decisions about authentication
# - Known patterns in this area
# - Relevant standards to follow
Verification: Run python --version to verify Python environment.
