| description | Distill this session's key learnings into long-term memory. Use after completing significant work or when user says "update memory" or "save this session". |
Review the conversation and update the memory system:
Hot/Cold Routing
- Hot (
identity/memory.md): Only things needed in every future conversation — current state, active work, key facts, session log.
- Cold (
memory/*.md): Detailed context by topic — projects, preferences, decisions, people.
Steps
- Read
identity/memory.md and relevant memory/*.md files
- Identify what's worth keeping: decisions, preferences, project context, people context
- Route to the right layer:
- Current state / active work →
identity/memory.md
- Detailed project info →
memory/projects.md
- Preference patterns →
memory/preferences.md
- Decisions with reasoning →
memory/decisions.md
- People context →
memory/people.md
- Merge, don't duplicate. Consolidate with existing entries.
- Keep
identity/memory.md under 2500 tokens
- Datestamp new entries:
<!-- added YYYY-MM-DD -->
- Report what was saved and where
