memory kind

• CURIE: gmeow:memoryKind
• IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/memoryKind
• Category: property
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/ai
• Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)

The cognitive register of this memory item (open vocabulary): episodic, semantic, working, procedural.

Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:MemoryItem -> gmeow:MemoryKind; functional

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:memoryKind from gmeow:MemoryItem to gmeow:MemoryKind when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Attention Interest Memory

# --- Suppression, not deletion (Principle 10): forgetting, via the documented
#     remembers ↔ gmeow:MemoryItem bridge . Nova's remembering of a subject is
#     BACKED by MemoryItem(s) about it; a faded memory is the MemoryItem marked
#     gmeow:displayable false — retained for "what she remembered WHEN", never erased.
#     The bridge is prose, so cognition adds no dependency on the ai slice (Principle 9).

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to classify the cognitive register of a gmeow:MemoryItem — episodic, semantic, working, or procedural — from the gmeow:MemoryKind vocabulary.

Avoid when

• Avoid asserting several registers on one item (it is functional — one item, one register) and avoid using it for salience or recency (those ride the statement-level gmeow:importanceLevel and the statement clocks, not a second property).

How to use

• Assert exactly one gmeow:memoryKind per MemoryItem at a gmeow:MemoryKind individual; mint a fresh register if a needed one is not seeded, since the vocabulary is open.

Examples

• ex:m1 gmeow:memoryKind gmeow:memoryKindSemantic.
