Basic Memory v0.21.6 first sync over the live memory dir (steward-authorized live-dir trial, Option A 2026-06-06): adds permalink: to frontmatter, refolds long YAML description lines, strips final newlines. Bodies untouched — verified via full diff classification. From this commit forward, any diff in claude/memory shows only what Basic Memory or the session writes. Trial design: MemPalace untouched as incumbent; git status check on this dir at every wrap; end-of-day evaluation (recall quality, sync robustness, rebuild-from-files, malformed-file behavior).

description: The "typography palace" — masters of type (Bringhurst, Tschichold, Hochuli,

Lupton, Sousa…) live in a dedicated MemPalace at ~/.mempalace/palace-chamber-typography.

Query it with CLI tools, NOT the MCP tools (which point at palace-memory).

When ARC typography work needs the masters' prescription (setting verse, block quotes, hyphenation, measure, etc.), the source-of-truth is a **dedicated MemPalace palace we built for exactly this**: a small curated collection (~20-21 sources — Bringhurst *Elements*, Tschichold *Form of the Book*, Lupton *Thinking with Type*, Sousa *Ortografía y ortotipografía del español*, and more).
|
|
|
|
**Location:** `~/.mempalace/palace-chamber-typography` (wing `chamber_typography`, room `general`).
|
|
|
|
**Query method — CLI, not MCP.** The MCP `mempalace_*` tools point at `palace-memory` (our session/working memory), NOT this palace. To search the typographers, use the CLI with `--palace`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mempalace --palace ~/.mempalace/palace-chamber-typography search "your keywords here"
|
|
mempalace --palace ~/.mempalace/palace-chamber-typography status
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The binary is `/opt/homebrew/bin/mempalace`. CLI subcommands: init, mine, sweep, sync, search, compress, wake-up, split, hook, instructions, repair, repair-status, mcp, migrate, status. (Search hits show source file + cosine/bm25 — go to the named `*.md` source for the full passage.)
|
|
|
|
This is NOT the chamber-library (`~/_Dev/chamber-library`, the larger reading corpus) — it is a separate, small, purpose-built typography palace. Don't conflate them. Steward's standing instruction (2026-06-02): for typography queries of this kind, use this palace via CLI — don't ask where it lives again.
