The Memory settings control how agents remember things about this project across sessions. With memory enabled, agents retain context from one session to the next; without it, they fall back to a simpler local store. This is what powers the knowledge you see in Context → Memories.

Enable Memory

  • Enable Memory — turn on persistent cross-session memory, backed by an embedded database (LadybugDB). This gives agents durable cross-session context with semantic search over what they’ve learned.
A status indicator shows whether memory is currently Enabled or Disabled for the project.

​
File-based fallback

When memory is disabled, the project uses file-based memory instead: session insights are stored locally in JSON files. This still captures insights, but without the persistent cross-session context and semantic search that enabling memory provides.
The difference is durability and searchability. File-based memory keeps session insights in local JSON files; enabling Memory stores them in an embedded database so agents get persistent cross-session context with semantic search across everything they’ve learned.
Enable Memory for any project you’ll work on over time — the cross-session context and semantic search mean agents (and teammates) stop rediscovering the same patterns and gotchas. You can review what’s been captured on the Memories page.
Remember to save your changes for them to take effect.
