Memory: what the agent keeps and what it forgets
The agent remembers your business across months. What it can lose is the thread of one particular task when several run at once.
What it remembers for good
Facts about you and your work, decisions you made, standards you set, the history of your conversations. This memory is searchable and it survives restarts — it is the reason an employee gets better over time while a chatbot never does.
Why did it forget one of my tasks?
Because a single conversation has a working window. When you run four or five tasks in parallel in one chat, older ones scroll out of that window. The permanent memory still holds the facts, but the agent may not realise a task is still open unless something reminds it.
How to prevent that
- One thread, one task. In a forum group use a topic per project — the agent keeps a separate context for each.
- Say "remember this". Anything you want kept forever, tell it plainly. It writes it into its permanent memory.
- Ask for a status list. "What is open on you right now?" — a healthy agent answers with the real list, not from imagination.
Does memory transfer between my agents?
Each agent has its own memory by default. You can open one agent's memory to another of your agents from the dashboard — the decision is yours and it is made by a person, not by the agent itself.
