Memory tab

Rufus Pearce edited this page Dec 4, 2025 · 3 revisions

The Memory Tab allows you to explore the memories your squid has formed. It separates memories into short-term (recent events) and long-term (consolidated, important events), giving you insight into what has recently affected your squid and what it has learned to remember.

Interface Elements

  • Memory Sub-Tabs:
    • 🧠 Short-Term: Displays recent memories that are still being processed. These are temporary and will decay over time unless they are significant.
    • 📚 Long-Term: Displays memories that have been deemed important enough to be stored permanently. These memories have a lasting impact on the squid's behavior.
    • 📊 Overview: Shows high-level statistics about the memory system, including the total count of short-term and long-term memories and a breakdown of memories by category (e.g., food, interaction, mental\_state).
  • Memory Cards: Both STM and LTM are displayed as a series of cards. Each card is color-coded to indicate its emotional valence:
    • Pastel Green: A positive memory (e.g., eating tasty food).
    • Pastel Red: A negative memory (e.g., being startled).
    • Pastel Yellow: A neutral memory.
  • Card Content: Each card displays the memory's category, its formatted content, and the time it was created. Important memories are marked with a "⭐ Important" indicator. Clicking on a short-term memory card can increase its importance, making it more likely to be transferred to long-term memory.
