Distill Memory

Save proactively when the conversation produces a durable fact, preference, decision, plan, procedure, learning, event, or important context. Do not wait to be asked.

When to Save

Good candidates include:

• decisions with rationale ("we chose PostgreSQL because ACID is required")
• repeatable procedures or workflows
• lessons from debugging, incidents, or root cause analysis
• durable preferences or constraints
• plans that future sessions will need to resume cleanly
• important context that would be lost when the session ends

Skip routine fixes with no generalizable lesson, work in progress that will change, simple Q&A answerable from documentation, and generic information already widely known.
