SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

AI agents often lose context between sessions; project-brain provides persistent memory to load at start and save at end, ensuring continuity.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Load: auto-discovers a brain document, reads structured sections, and briefs the current state.
  • Save: creates or updates a brain document using incremental merges, preserving history.
  • Formats & Integration: supports v2.0, v1.0, and free-form brain documents and integrates with sprint-forge, Obsidian vaults, and universal-planner.

Quick Start

Start a session by loading the project brain to restore context, and save the session when you finish.

FAQPage Schema
How do I maintain AI agent memory across sessions?

To maintain AI agent memory across sessions, load a markdown brain document at the start to restore context and save it at the end using incremental merges. This persists agent state and decisions between runs without losing continuity.

How does session memory loading and saving work?

Session memory loading auto-discovers a brain document, reads structured sections, and briefs the current state. Saving creates or updates the document using incremental merges, preserving history while applying curated safety guards that require user confirmation before writes.

What formats are supported for persisting AI session context?

Supported formats for persisting AI session context include v2.0, v1.0, and free-form markdown brain documents. The system auto-discovers these structured files to read sections and brief the current state before applying incremental updates.

Can I use session memory tools with Obsidian vaults and sprint-forge?

Yes, you can use this session memory tool with Obsidian vaults, sprint-forge, and universal-planner. It integrates directly with these platforms to load and persist agent state, ensuring workflows maintain continuity across different task environments.

Does the agent memory system apply silent defaults when writing updates?

No, the agent memory system does not apply silent defaults. It uses curated safety guards that require explicit user confirmation before writing updates to the brain document, ensuring you maintain full control over state migrations and incremental merges.

Why do AI agents lose context between different task runs?

AI agents lose context between different task runs because they lack persistent memory to recover state. Solving this requires loading a markdown brain document at the start of a session to restore continuity and saving decisions at the end for future recovery.
