FAQPage Schema
How do I give AI agents persistent memory across sessions?

To give AI agents persistent memory across sessions, use a local context store at ~/.opencontext with a database at ~/.opencontext/opencontext.db to retain backgrounds, decisions, and lessons for smarter collaboration.

What is persistent memory for multi-agent workflows?

Persistent memory for multi-agent workflows is a knowledge storage mechanism that allows AI assistants to retain past conclusions and context across different repositories and dates, preventing context loss during project collaboration.

How do I load and store project context for AI assistants?

Load project context using the /opencontext-context command to initialize memory, and store new conclusions using the /opencontext-iterate command via supported slash commands and MCP tooling.

Can I share knowledge across different repos with AI context management?

Yes, you can share knowledge across different repos because the context management system applies to multi-agent workflows and cross-project collaboration, retaining backgrounds and decisions regardless of the repository.

What's the best way to search past decisions in an AI workflow?

The best way to search past decisions in an AI workflow is using the MCP tooling and slash commands provided to efficiently search and retrieve background information from the local persistent memory store.
