How Proto’s memory works
Proto remembers stable facts and preferences you tell it, so you don’t have to repeat yourself in future conversations.
What Proto remembers
Facts you have explicitly stated that will still matter after the current task, such as:
- Preferences: “Always show amounts in USD.”
- Conventions: “Our PO numbers start with PO-.”
- Decisions: “We use the Paper Light theme for all client demos.”
Proto reads memory when it’s relevant rather than assuming it applies to every request.
What Proto never stores
- Task status, plans or progress logs
- Guesses or conclusions it drew on its own
- Passwords, keys or any other secrets
Memory is written only from things you actually said.
Searching past conversations
Separate from memory, Proto can search your earlier conversations in the project. Ask “What did we decide about the approval threshold last week?” or use /search.
