[cron:65100159-2726-45b8-bddd-8efe414a6988 total-recall-preconscious] Run Total Recall Preconscious Selector to update the priority buffer. Execute: bash ~/.openclaw/shared/total-recall/scripts/preconscious-select.sh

Return your summary as plain text; it will be delivered automatically. If the task explicitly calls for messaging a specific external recipient, note who/where it should go instead of sending it yourself.

type: thinking

thinking: The user is asking me to run a cron job for the Total Recall Preconscious Selector. This is a scheduled task that updates a priority buffer. Let me execute the script as requested.

thinking: The script exited with code 5. Let me check if there was any output or log file that might have more details.

action: log

thinking: No output recorded. The script exited with code 5 but didn't produce any visible output. Let me check the script itself to understand what exit code 5 means and what it's supposed to do.

thinking:
Exit code 5 in bash with `set -e` could be from a failing command. Looking at the script:

1. It checks for observations and events
2. If both are empty, it exits 0 with a log message
3. Exit code 5 is not explicitly set, so it might be from `curl` or `jq`

Let me check if the observations file exists and if there's anything to process.

exec

[MEDIUM] EVENT: Total Recall system initialized
[FACT] SYSTEM: Memory architecture includes QMD, Mem0, MemLayer, Total Recall
[PREFERENCE] USER: Chad prefers dark mode in all applications
[PREFERENCE] USER: Direct communication, no filler
[FACT] INFRASTRUCTURE: Fred server runs OpenClaw on port 18789

[HIGH] FACT: System audit detected missing startup files (WORKFLOW_AUTO.md, memory/*.md) after context reset, requiring immediate restoration.
[MEDIUM] TASK: Execute read operations on HEARTBEAT.md and missing startup files to restore operating protocols.
[MEDIUM] RULE: Adhere to strict instruction to reply with NO_REPLY if no actionable tasks are found in HEARTBEAT.md.
[LOW] EVENT: Multiple heartbeat cron checks (approx. every 30 mins) occurred on March 7, 2026, with no reported actionable tasks.

status: completed


thinking: The script has run successfully in the past. The last successful run was on March 7th at 18:03:45. Let me check if there's an issue with the curl/jq call or if the LLM server is down. Let me check if the API is available.

command: curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" http://localhost:9069/v1/models 2>/dev/null || echo "API unavailable"


thinking: The API is available. Let me try to run the script manually with more debugging to see what's happening.
