Bring a readable page archive into memory.
Markdown gives you a readable way to move page content. Memrain can export a source's pages and import a compatible directory into an existing source, with a preview before writes.
Illustrative workflow
Can I move this exported collection into a new source without overwriting existing pages?
Preview the directory with memrain import, inspect candidate pages and slug conflicts, then apply the reviewed import. Existing slugs are refused.
Illustrative scenario, not a live product result.Prepare the page format.
The importer reads Markdown files with export-compatible frontmatter containing a title and type. Directory paths become page slugs, and the target source must already exist. A Memrain export provides this structure directly. Notes from another tool need preparation into that format before using this path; an arbitrary folder of Markdown is not assumed to carry the required metadata.
Preview before creating pages.
The default import reports candidates and conflicts without writing. Applying it creates new pages only: any existing slug, including a soft-deleted page or a page in another source, is a conflict. A preflight conflict refuses the batch. If a concurrent write or later error interrupts application, the report identifies how many pages were created so the operator can inspect the result before retrying.
Check content, then retrieval.
Ordinary page validation and credential screening still apply. Import creates page content without invoking fact extraction or paid indexing; search indexing is deferred to reconciliation. Read representative pages first, then verify known searches after that work finishes. Markdown carries the exported pages, while versions, derived facts, credentials and other database state need their own backup and recovery process.
