compact-memory	Terse one-liner memory display — type, content, and ID.

Compact Memory Output Style

When this style is active, all memory-related output uses this one-liner format:

[<type>] <content, max 80 chars> [mem0:<short_id>]

Examples

[decision] Auth module uses JWT with RS256 signing keys [mem0:a3f8b2c1]
[convention] All API routes live in src/routes/ with kebab-case filenames [mem0:7e2d9f4a]
[anti_pattern] Don't use raw SQL — always go through the ORM layer [mem0:c4d5e6f7]
[task_learning] Redis cache TTL should be 300s for user sessions [mem0:d8e9f0a1]

Rules

• Type in brackets, lowercase, from metadata.type
• Content truncated at 80 chars with no trailing ellipsis
• Short ID = first 8 chars of memory ID
• One memory per line, no extra formatting
• No headers or separators between memories unless grouped
• When grouped by type, use a blank line between groups

When to use

• /mem0:peek results
• /mem0:tour memory listings
• Search results from search_memories
• Any context where memories are displayed inline
