Practical Examples

Multi-Extension Workflows

@memory-store @Linear What should I focus on today?
@memory-store @Calendar What's my schedule and what should I prepare?
@memory-store @Slack Summarize what I missed in important channels
@memory-store @GitHub What PRs need my attention?

Personal Context

@memory-store I'm vegetarian and allergic to peanuts
@memory-store I enjoy hard sci-fi with realistic physics
@memory-store I'm learning Spanish, practicing daily

Then ask:

@memory-store Suggest a restaurant for team dinner
@memory-store Recommend a book for vacation

Tips for Maximum Value

• Start with @memory-store to load your context
• Combine extensions: @memory-store @Beeper @Linear for powerful workflows
• Capture thoughts immediately: Use as smart scratch pad
• Track people from meetings: Who said what, commitments, action items
• Build over time: More usage = better recommendations

Cross-Platform Memory

Memory Store works across: Raycast, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, Claude.ai, ChatGPT, and more.

Record in Raycast → available in Claude.ai and vice versa.

Troubleshooting

• Not Showing: Verify JSON syntax → Check .json extension → Restart Raycast
• OAuth Fails: Check internet → Try different browser → Clear cookies
• npx Not Found: Install Node.js from nodejs.org → Add to PATH → Restart terminal
• No Memories: Normal for new installs! Memories build as you interact.
