Memory
WednesdayAI can remember things about you across conversations - your preferences, important facts, decisions you have made. This is different from the running context of a single chat.Memory vs context
- Context is what the AI can see in your current conversation. It is limited and temporary: very long conversations drop their earliest messages, and starting a new session (
/reset) clears it. - Memory is durable. When the AI saves something to memory, it stays there - so it still knows it tomorrow, next week, or in a brand-new conversation.
How to make something stick
The simplest way: just ask the bot to remember it.“Remember that I prefer TypeScript over JavaScript.” “Remember my project deadline is the 14th.” “Make a note that I’m allergic to penicillin.”When you say “remember this”, the AI writes it down to a durable note rather than just holding it in the conversation. If you want something to last, asking explicitly is the most reliable way.
Recalling something later
Just ask, in a new conversation or the same one:“What did I tell you about my deadline?” “What’s my preferred programming language?” “Remind me what we decided about the hosting setup.”The AI can search its notes and bring back what is relevant, even if you phrase the question differently from how you first saved it.
Updating or removing a memory
Tell the bot what changed:“Update my deadline - it’s now the 20th.” “Forget what I said about the old hosting plan.”The AI will revise its notes accordingly.
Good things to remember
- Preferences: how you like answers formatted, your timezone, your preferred tools or languages
- Stable facts: your projects, your role, recurring people or systems you mention
- Decisions: choices you have made so you do not have to re-explain them
What memory is not
- It is not a place for secrets you would not want stored. Treat memory like a notebook the AI keeps on the gateway - do not save passwords or sensitive credentials there.
- It is not automatic for everything. Casual chit-chat is not saved unless you ask.
In group chats, the AI keeps your private long-term memory out of the shared conversation. Personal notes belong to your private session with the bot.
