Memory
How PoorMad recalls across sessions — local-first, yours only.
Memory is how PoorMad recalls across sessions so it does not start from zero each time.
Kinds of memory
| Type | What it stores |
|---|---|
| Session | Transient context for the current conversation. |
| Long-term | Durable facts, preferences, and corrections you want kept. |
| Skill memory | Learned procedures (see Skills). |
Where it lives
All memory lives under ~/.poormad/ on your machine. Nothing is sent to a third party unless you connect a remote surface and explicitly share context.
Saving a memory
> Remember that I prefer concise responses and Python 3.13. > Remember we deploy to an Oracle VPS, not AWS.
Recall
On each session start, relevant long-term memories are injected into context. You can ask the agent to search or forget specific memories:
> What do you remember about my deploy setup? > Forget the note about AWS.
Privacy
Memory is local-first. Deleting ~/.poormad/ erases everything. See Security & Privacy for the full model.
