Yeah but probably the whole of the memories for any given project will likely fit into context, and the agent can’t extract whatever it wants for the given task. Grep only comes in if they choose to narrow down the candidate memory files, and they are usually searching many keywords and synonyms.

Of course a real search system with ranking and whatnot would be better, but you’re paying a different cost there.

I’m personally more interested in how the memory files get created and updated and generally managed, retrieving the correct ones doesn’t seem to be a big problem at the moment.

I primarily use gh copilot and they are by default hidden from the user. It’s also not great that they aren’t in the repo and every contributor has their own set of memories of different freshness, likely conflicting.
