Bring Markdown notes into Empirical.

Why markdown is the best starter path

This page explains a manual source workflow: keep Markdown files where they are, select the durable notes that should follow you into AI tools, and record concise memories in Empirical. It is not a Markdown importer or live file-sync connector.

Use this when: You already keep project notes in files and want a low-risk way to promote only high-value context into Empirical.

Workflow

Use a notes folder as your raw source. Read from it locally, select durable passages, and write concise memories into Empirical rather than ingesting every line.

• Keep source files where they already live
• Review and select only durable notes
• Record concise summaries instead of dumping raw pages

Recommended shape

Use a short title, one-sentence summary, and optional source pointer. The memory should be understandable even if the original markdown file is not open beside it.
