- How to view and edit memory
What Is Project Memory?
Project memory is the accumulated knowledge from your conversations within a project. As you chat, important information is extracted and stored:- Decisions made - “We chose React over Vue”
- Preferences stated - “I prefer bullet points over paragraphs”
- Facts shared - “Our team is 12 people”
- Constraints established - “Budget is $50K”
- Context built - “We’re targeting enterprise customers”
Memory vs. Conversation History
| Memory | Conversation History | |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | Key facts and decisions | Everything said |
| Persistence | Available in all future chats | Only within that chat |
| Size | Compressed, essential | Full, verbose |
| Purpose | Context for new conversations | Record of past conversations |
Memory vs. Knowledge Graph
| Memory | Knowledge Graph | |
|---|---|---|
| Structure | Key-value facts | Entities and relationships |
| Complexity | Simple | Rich, connected |
| Update | Automatic from conversations | Automatic with extraction |
| Use case | Persistent context | Deep knowledge retrieval |
What Gets Remembered
The system automatically extracts:- Explicit statements - “We’re a B2B company” → stored
- Decisions - “Let’s go with option A” → stored
- Corrections - “Actually, it’s 15 people, not 12” → updates previous memory
- Preferences - “I like concise answers” → stored
- Key data - Company name, metrics, dates mentioned → stored
- Casual conversation
- AI responses (only your stated facts/decisions)
- Temporary context (“for this question, assume X”)
Viewing and Editing Memory
View Memory
Open the right sidebar → Project Info → Memory section. You’ll see a list of stored facts and decisions.Edit Memory
You can:- Delete entries that are outdated or wrong
- Edit entries that need correction
- Add entries manually if the system missed something
Clear Memory
If a project’s direction has changed significantly, you can clear all memory and start fresh.Tips
- Memory builds over time. The more you use a project, the smarter the AIs become about your context.
- If AIs reference something outdated, check and edit the memory.
- Custom instructions are better for permanent rules. Memory is better for accumulated knowledge.
- Memory is project-specific. Moving to a new project means starting with fresh memory.
- You don’t need to explicitly say “remember this.” The system extracts important information automatically.
