Memory System

Shared Memory

The shared memory file at docs/agents/shared/MEMORY.md is accessible to all agents. Use it for:
- Cross-agent coordination notes
- System-wide status updates
- Shared discoveries and patterns

Agent-Specific Memory

Each agent maintains its own memory via Claude Code's auto-memory system at ~/.claude/projects/*/memory/MEMORY.md. Agent-specific memory includes:
- Task context and progress notes
- Learned patterns from repeated operations
- Environment-specific configuration

What to Remember

  • Stable patterns confirmed across multiple interactions
  • Key architectural decisions and file paths
  • Solutions to recurring problems
  • User preferences for workflow and communication

What NOT to Remember

  • Session-specific context (current task details, temporary state)
  • Unverified conclusions from reading a single file
  • Anything that duplicates CLAUDE.md instructions
