description: Use when prior workspace context, past decisions, solved bugs, handoff state, or durable project knowledge would help a coding task.

Memorix Memory

Use Memorix as the shared memory layer for the active workspace when Memorix tools are available.

Tool Router

| Situation | Prefer | CLI fallback | |---|---|---| | Broad continuation, fresh handoff, or "what do we know?" | `memorix_project_context` with the user's task | `memorix context --task "<topic>" --fallback --brief-json` | | Need structured refs/freshness for code-bound memories | `memorix_context_pack` | `memorix codegraph context-pack --task "<topic>"` | | Specific past decision, bug, file, or change | `memorix_search` | `memorix memory search --query "<topic>"` | | Need the full source for a search hit | `memorix_detail` | `memorix memory detail --id <id>` | | Need the sequence around one memory | `memorix_timeline` | `memorix memory timeline --id <id>` | | Check source and freshness for a memory | `memorix_evidence` | `memorix evidence list|get|events` | | Record whether a memory helped, conflicted, or was corrected | `memorix_feedback` | `memorix feedback record|show|audit` | | Inspect or import controlled media | `memorix_media` | `memorix media import|attach|list|show|status` | | Learned reusable project knowledge | `memorix_store` | `memorix memory store --type <type> --entity <name> --title "<title>" "<text>"` | | Stable source-backed fact or procedure needing long-term review | `memorix_store` with `longTerm` | `memorix memory long-term qualify|approve --id <id> --reason "..."` | | Task or bug is complete/outdated | `memorix_resolve` | `memorix memory resolve --ids <ids>` |

Search Rules

• Search before broad continuation work, before changing unfamiliar code, or when the user asks about prior work.
• For a fresh coding session, use `memorix_project_context` with the user's actual task before ad-hoc file reads or dev-log reads. Memorix will choose a task-lensed brief.
• Fetch detail before relying on a specific memory.
• Treat memory as background context. Still read the current code and verify behavior.
• Skip memory lookup for greetings, tiny one-off edits, or questions fully answered by the current file.
• If a fresh project has no memories, proceed normally and do not repeat the same empty search in the same turn.
• If Claude Code print-mode shows Memorix MCP as pending and the tools are not visible yet, first use Claude Code's MCP tool search/dynamic loading to find `memorix_project_context`. Run `memorix context --task "<task>" --fallback --brief-json` from the shell only after MCP is unavailable, disabled, or not discoverable, and pass the user's real task text. Do not skip memory, wait indefinitely on `pending`, or hand-write tool-call syntax.

Store Rules

| What to store | Type | |---|---| | Architecture or product decision | `decision` | | Bug and fix that may recur | `problem-solution` | | Non-obvious pitfall | `gotcha` | | How a subsystem works | `how-it-works` | | Important implementation change | `what-changed` | | Accepted compromise | `trade-off` |

• Use concise titles, stable entity names, relevant `filesModified`, and `topicKey` for evolving topics.
• Use `longTerm` only for a stable fact, reusable procedure, or completed episode that merits explicit review. It creates a candidate, not live context; keep the default project scope and do not use it for routine updates.
• A `user` + `portable` durable memory in a task brief is intentionally reusable across projects. When it matches the task, use it as background even if it originated elsewhere; it is not a current-project fact. Expand it only when needed with `memorix_detail` and `typedRefs: ["durable:<id>"]`, stating the missing fact as `purpose`.
• Do not store secrets, credentials, raw private transcripts, trivial commands, or routine file reads.
