3.5 Workspace Files & Daily Memory

Overview

The Workspace panel provides file management and daily memory features for OpenClaw. It allows you to edit workspace configuration files and maintain a daily memory journal.

This feature is specific to OpenClaw. The Workspace button appears in the navigation bar when OpenClaw is the selected application.

Workspace Files

File Location

All workspace files are stored in ~/.openclaw/workspace/.

Click the directory path at the top of the panel to open it in your file manager.

Available Files

CC Switch manages 9 workspace files, each serving a specific purpose:

File Description
AGENTS.md Agents definition and configuration
SOUL.md System soul/personality settings
USER.md User profile information
IDENTITY.md Identity and role definition
TOOLS.md Available tools configuration
MEMORY.md System memory
HEARTBEAT.md Heartbeat configuration
BOOTSTRAP.md Bootstrap sequence
BOOT.md Boot configuration

File Status

Each file shows a status indicator:

  • Green checkmark: File exists on disk
  • Empty circle: File does not exist yet (will be created on first save)

Editing Files

  1. Click any file card to open the Markdown editor
  2. Edit the content
  3. Click Save to write changes to disk

If the file doesn't exist yet, it will be created on first save.

Daily Memory

The Daily Memory feature provides a date-organized journal system stored in ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/.

Accessing Daily Memory

Click the Daily Memory card in the Workspace Files grid to open the memory panel.

File List

The panel displays all daily memory files sorted by date (newest first). Each entry shows:

  • Date (formatted from filename, e.g., 2026-04-01.md)
  • File size
  • Preview (first 2 lines of content)

Create Today's Note

Click the Create Today button to:

  • Open a new note with today's date (YYYY-MM-DD.md)
  • If today's note already exists, it opens for editing
  • The file is persisted only after you click Save

Search

Search across all daily memory files:

  1. Press Cmd/Ctrl+F or click the search icon
  2. Enter your search term
  3. Results show matching files with:
    • Match count per file
    • Snippet preview from the matching line
    • File date and size

Press Esc to close the search.

Edit & Delete

  • Edit: Click a file entry to open it in the Markdown editor
  • Delete: Hover over a file entry and click the delete icon. A confirmation dialog is shown — deletion cannot be undone.
