File Document
Store any document, email, or text for future reference with proper entity linking and provenance tracking.
Usage
/file-document or natural language:
- "Save this email"
- "File this for later"
- "Keep this document"
- "Store this transcript"
When to Use
This command is for ad-hoc document capture. Use it when:
- User shares an email they want to preserve
- User pastes content they want to reference later
- User uploads a document (PDF, contract, proposal)
- User shares research or web content worth keeping
- Anything the user might want to cite or review later
Note: For meeting transcripts specifically, use /capture-meeting which includes extraction.
Quick Flow
1. Identify the Content
Ask if not obvious:
- "What is this? (email, document, transcript, research, other)"
- "Who is this about or from?"
2. Gather Metadata
Determine:├── source_type: gmail, transcript, upload, capture├── filename: YYYY-MM-DD-[entity]-[topic].md├── about: [list of entity names mentioned]└── summary: One-line description
3. File It
claudia memory document store \--filename "Descriptive name" \--source-type "gmail|transcript|upload|capture" \--summary "Brief description" \--about "entity1,entity2" \--project-dir "$PWD" \< content.md
(Pipe the FULL raw text via stdin; never summarize)
4. Confirm
**Filed****File:** [filename]**Location:** [storage path]**Linked to:** [entity names]**Summary:** [one-line summary]The document is now searchable and linked to [entities].You can find it later with:- "Show me documents about [entity]"- "Find the email from [person]"- claudia memory document search --entity "[name]" --project-dir "$PWD"

Research
User: "Here's some info I found about competitor pricing. Keep this."claudia memory document store \--filename "2026-02-04-competitor-pricing-research.md" \--source-type "capture" \--summary "Competitor pricing analysis notes" \--project-dir "$PWD" < research.mdResponse:"Filed your competitor pricing research.Saved to: general/documents/2026-02-04-competitor-pricing-research.md"
Contract
User: "Save this contract from Acme Corp"claudia memory document store \--filename "2026-02-04-acme-corp-contract.md" \--source-type "upload" \--summary "Service agreement with Acme Corp" \--about "Acme Corp" \--project-dir "$PWD" < contract.mdResponse:"Filed the Acme Corp contract.Saved to: clients/acme-corp/documents/2026-02-04-contract.md"
Linking to Memories
If you also extract facts from the document:
- File the document first (get document_id from JSON response)
- Extract memories using
claudia memory saveorclaudia memory batch - Call
claudia memory document store --memory-ids "id1,id2,..."to link provenance
This creates the chain: memory -> document -> file on disk.
