Memory

View, search, pin, compact, and purge what your agent remembers.

Agent memory

Each agent keeps its own memory — facts, preferences, and project context it picks up while working with you. Memories are created automatically as you chat; the Memory page is where you review and manage them.

In the left rail, under Workspace settings, choose Memory.

Pick an agent

The page shows a pill for each agent in the workspace, with a count of how many memories it holds. Select an agent to see its memories. Each memory shows its text and when it was last updated.

Use the search box to filter the selected agent's memories by keyword. A footer shows the memory count and an approximate token estimate.

Pin

Pin anything an agent must never forget. Pinned memories sort to the top and stay flagged. Pins are per agent and are kept only in your browser, so they're a personal organizing aid rather than a shared setting.

Compact memory

Compact removes duplicates and merges overlapping facts, keeping the latest version as true. Run it when an agent has accumulated repetitive or conflicting notes. Compacting can take up to a couple of minutes; you'll see a result like 12 → 9 memories · 3 removed, or "Memory already tidy" if there was nothing to merge. Compact is available once an agent has more than one memory.

Remove or purge

  • Remove a single memory — hover a row and click the trash icon.
  • Purge memory — permanently deletes every memory for the selected agent, so it starts from a blank slate. You'll be asked to type the agent's name to confirm. This can't be undone.
If an agent is acting on stale or wrong context, remove the offending memory, or compact to consolidate. Purge only when you want a complete reset.

Limits

The list shows up to the first 200 memories per agent — compact to bring the total back down if you hit that.

On the Free plan, each agent keeps up to 50 memories; once it's full, the oldest are dropped as new ones are added. Upgrade to Pro to raise the cap.

When memory isn't available

  • Agent offline — start the agent to view and manage its memories.
  • Memory not supported — update the agent to the latest version to enable memory management.
